Trump to rally with New York police in highlighting historic coast-to-coast violent crime drop

EXCLUSIVE: President Donald Trump will travel with top federal law enforcement brass to Nassau County, New York , on Friday to rally with local police and tout what his office describes as a historic drop in violent crime nationwide, Fox News Digital has learned.

Trump, along with newly-confirmed Attorney General Todd Blanche and FBI Director Kash Patel, are scheduled to host the event at the Nassau County Police Academy, a top-notch 89,000-square-foot advanced training and intelligence center for police on Long Island.

While there, the 47th president is expected to give a rundown on the largest year-to-year decrease in violent crime since the FBI began recording crime statistics in 1936.

FBI REPORTS LARGEST DROP IN VIOLENT CRIME AND MURDER SINCE 1937 AS HOMICIDES FALL MORE THAN 18% He plans to tout an estimated 18.1% drop in murder and non-negligent manslaughter, an 18.5% drop in robberies, a 7.6% decrease in rapes and a 7.2% decline in aggravated assault in 2025.

Further, Trump will announce that burglaries dropped by an estimated 15.8%, while larceny decreased by 9.8% and motor vehicle theft declined by 22.7%.

The statistics come from the FBI’s soon-to-be released 2025 Crime Statistics Report.

Trump is expected to highlight for the officers his law and order policies that he says have led to safer neighborhoods and fewer crime victims.

President Trump promised to make America safe again and the data proves he has done just that," White House spokeswoman Lauren Bis told Fox News Digital.

"Unlike Defund-the-Police Democrats, President Trump will always stand with our law enforcement officers and deliver safer American neighborhoods," she added, noting the far-left movement's push to get rid of law enforcement entirely.

It's been a banner week for the Trump administration in the way of successful crime reduction announcements.

Tuesday marked one year since Trump's bold deployment of the National Guard to Washington, D.C. in an effort to curb lawlessness in the nation's capital, dubbed the Safe and Beautiful initiative.

Patel said that D.C. is safer than it has been in decades thanks to the deployment and a surge of federal authorities in the city.
