Marjorie Taylor Greene highlights the apparent dangers of President Joe Biden's America

Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Rep Greene began, "Joe Biden’s America: Danger Ahead! Last year, DC had the highest number of homicides since 97’. Murders in NYC are up 23.1% from 2019 and felony assault is up 35.4%."

She added, "Across 32 cities, car thefts increased 33.5% in the first half of 2023. Carjackings are up 98% in Washington, DC. Car thefts in NYC are up 191% from 2019.

Internet reacts to Marjorie Taylor Greene's post about the growing crime rates under the Biden administration

One stated, "There's only one problem, marge. Crime has gone down since 2020. You can pick and choose your cities, but on the whole, you're wrong as usual." Another echoed, "Actually, comparing the graph per year, crime is dramatically down compared to the Trump era. Quantified data doesn't lie."

A person quipped, "'across these 32 cherrypicked cities in the US I used to make my statistics more fear monger-y...'," while someone else corrected her, writing, "More lies violent crime down 15% property crime down 8%."

"So do something about it dude! Stop complaining and pass a law or 2! If not, WHY ARE YOU THERE???" question an individual. 

One more stated, "What Marge won't tell you that: Statistically New York an DC are safer than Georgia / Trump's first year in office hate crimes rose 97%."

Another person pointed out the supposed crime rate in Greene's district, noting, "You suck as a congresswoman / With a crime rate of 57 per one thousand residents, Rome has one of the highest crime rates in America compared to all communities in the US / One's chance of becoming a victim of either violent or property crime here is one in 18."
