Kamala’s FBI is Gaslighting You About the Crime Wave in North Carolina

Is crime truly down? Only if you believe Kamala Harris. But the true numbers show serious violent convictions are skyrocketing under the Left’s lies

Kamala Harris’ FBI may claim that crime is down nationwide, but North Carolinians know the truth: Crime is raging out of control thanks to “progressive” policies that continually incentivize lawlessness while coddling criminals.

FBI data in the Tar Heel State suggest that crime fell by 2 percent from 2019 to 2022—a fantastical figure they got by conflating lesser property crimes with violent crimes.

When we remove larceny, theft, and burglary from the data, North Carolina’s crime rate shot up by a stunning 22 percent in just 3 years.

We traced the figures in Georgia and it’s the same story. The ugly truth is that the far Left and the ultra-politicized FBI are gaslighting Americans and obfuscating the truth they don’t want you to know, yet you can see plain as day in the communities ravaged by violent crime.

Murder By the Numbers

Between 2019 and 2022, murder increased by 40 percent, aggravated assault increased by 24 percent, arson increased by 10 percent, and rape increased by 9 percent—all the while Harris and her “progressive” cronies are trying to gaslight Americas into believing radical policies like abolishing cash bail reduce crime.

Restoration News found a similar trend in Georgia during the same three year period. FBI statistics on face value showed crime had decreased by 3 percent, but minus minor violations criminal convictions  actually increased 38 percent.

Crime is undeniably on the rise, yet the Left and its compliant media are gaslighting Americans into not believing their lying eyes. Worse, radicals are making things even more dreadful by releasing criminals, opening our borders to illegal alien criminals, and undermining law-abiding citizens’ ability to defend themselves through their Second Amendment rights.

Blatant Disdain for Order

North Carolinians deserve a safe state to reside in, but Democrats are hellbent on blocking any efforts that make it a reality.

In 2024, after Venezuelan national and illegal alien Jose Ibarra murdered University of Georgia nursing student Laken Riley, Republicans began to take steps toward protecting Americans. After all, 10 million (lowball) illegal aliens have entered the U.S. under the Biden-Harris administration, and 325,000 currently reside in North Carolina.

Unsurprisingly, 5 of the Tar Heel state’s 7 Democrats voted against the Laken Riley Act, which would empower state attorneys general to sue Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas for violating noncitizen detention and parole laws, especially where Americans are harmed. 

The following North Carolina Democrats voted against the legislation: Valerie Foushee, who voted against Republicans’ Secure the Border Act last year; Alma Adams, who bragged about supporting citizenship for illegal aliens; outgoing Rep. Kathy Manning; Wiley Nickel, who sponsored a bill to grant illegal aliens citizenship; and Deborah Ross, who opposed efforts to protect Americans from illegal alien-brought diseases under Title 42.

Democrats have established that they have a blatant disregard for safety under the guise of “social justice.” But it is no surprise. After all, they support noncitizen voting and need a mass onslaught of illegal aliens to boost their numbers in November.

In the eyes of the Left, winning an election and retaining control is more important than promoting safety for American citizens.

If you need more proof, look at Democratic Rep. Yvette Clarke (N.Y.). In 2023, she said the quiet part out loud and revealed the Left’s great plan.

“And when I hear colleagues talk about the doors of the inn being closed, ‘no room in the inn,’ I’m saying, I need more people in my district, just for redistricting purposes. And those members could clearly fit here,” Clarke said.

A recent poll by Americans for Citizen Voting shows that 90 percent of North Carolinians are against noncitizen voting, but to no surprise, the Democratic party does not represent the people.

Josh Stein

If North Carolinians want to live in a safe state, it is imperative that they do not elect “progressive” leaders.

North Carolina Attorney General and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Josh Stein has a track record of promoting soft-on-crime policies that align with the greater mission of the Left—leading the Republican Governors Association (RGA) to release an advertisement bashing the candidate for failing to protect residents.

In one instance, Stein, as attorney general and as a candidate for governor, has stated that he wants to crack down on opioid usage, but his stance doesn’t quite make sense. Most of the opioids, including fentanyl, a synthetic opioid that is 50 to 100 times stronger than heroin, are coming into the U.S. through the southern border.

But Stein has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, the Biden administration’s failure of a “border czar” for president. How does that add up?

Stein affirmed his support for allowing illegal aliens to remain in the country under the “Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals” (DACA) program, which delays the deportation of illegal aliens who came to the U.S. as children.

He also stated that he supports the concept of allowing illegal aliens to become police officers and expressed that he doesn’t support mass deportation.

In 2018, he joined a coalition of states that sued former President Donald Trump for proposing a census question that asked if people are U.S. citizens.

While all this is happening, Republican lawmakers and Republican gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson are fighting to keep North Carolina safe.

They are working to protect residents from crime, illegal aliens, and dangerous forms of protest like blocking major highways used during emergencies—but the Left keeps getting in the way.

Second Amendment Crime Prevention

As crime continues to skyrocket, Americans must ensure they can defend themselves.

But as expected, Democrats are fighting tooth and nail to remove the constitutional rights afforded to Americans under the Second Amendment.

Crime is booming and illegal aliens are flooding North Carolina. At the same time, state democrats continue to work towards restrictive gun laws like red flag laws—which allow the government to confiscate firearms for an unknown amount of time without reason.

Suppose Josh Stein and Kamala Harris are elected. In that case, it is also possible that universal background checks, so-called “assault weapon” bans, magazine capacity limits, and numerous other regressive forms of gun control will come into play.

North Carolinians, especially gun owners, need to block these initiatives from ever breathing life by voting in November.

There are currently 10 million unregistered gun owners in the U.S. and 370 thousand in North Carolina alone. If two percent of these unregistered voters made it to the polls, Republicans would win in a landslide, said Baker Leavitt, an adviser to Vote4America on the District of Conservation podcast.

Nothing Will Change Without You

The Democrat party has had four years with the Biden administration, and things look bad. Harris is lost in the woods, refuses to take interviews, and has absolutely no policy positions.

Law-abiding Americans need to take a stand against the regime of the authoritarian Left, or the situation is destined to worsen.

In just for years, constitutional rights have been trampled, crime has skyrocketed, illegal aliens have flooded the country, and families can no longer afford to live.

Enough is enough.
