The White House is embracing new crime statistics that indicate the murder rate could be trending toward its lowest level ever.

“Since President [Donald] Trump took office, murder rates have plummeted across the entire United States,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told the Washington Examiner on Tuesday. “American families were promised their communities would be safer, and President Trump swiftly delivered by vocally being tough on crime, unequivocally backing law enforcement, and standing firm on violent criminals being held to the fullest extent of the law.”
