Trump, violent crime is collapsing at a pace unmatched in modern American history. A <a href="https://counciloncj.org/homicide-likely-reaching-a-new-historic-low-as-most-crime-rates-continue-to-decline-at-mid-year/" target="_blank">new mid-year report</a> confirms that homicides are again on track to reach the lowest level in more than a century — building on last year’s <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/releases/2026/01/icymi-murder-rate-plunges-to-125-year-low-as-president-trump-restores-law-and-order/" target="_blank">extraordinary</a> <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/releases/2026/02/president-trump-returned-our-nation-to-law-and-order/" target="_blank">progress</a> and delivering on one of President Trump’s <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/releases/2025/11/promises-made-promises-kept-one-year-later/#:~:text=Protecting%20public%20safety" target="_blank">core promises</a> to restore law and order.Americans see the results every day: safer neighborhoods, fewer victims, and the decisive end of the crime surge that scarred the last decade. This is not accidental; it is the direct result of the Trump Administration’s relentless efforts to enforce the rule of law, back the police, and surge resources into communities long abandoned by Democrats.<img src="https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/crime.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="" />In the first half of 2026 vs. the same period last year:<ul>
