House GOP holds hearing in New York on crime after Trump indictment | USA TODAY

The House Judiciary Committee held a hearing in New York City on crime rates after former President Donald Trump was indicted on fraud charges.

The House Judiciary Committee held a hearing Monday in Manhattan to highlight what they claim is rampant crime in New York City. But Democrats say the hearing's real purpose is to interfere with the Manhattan district attorney after former President Donald Trump's indictment.

"We're here today in Lower Manhattan for one reason and one reason only: The chairman is doing the bidding for Donald Trump," said Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., the whose district includes Manhattan.

I have never seen a fire arm running around by itself shoot people. In all of the great conflicts around the world guns where not the problem and if you think that guns where the couse than your the problem.... the end dose not.... and I hope most can finish this sentence

Keep in mind these unfortunate crimes that these people have suffered are not solely confined to NY. These crimes and crimes in general of all categories have sky rockets since 2016 when Trump tool office. Sadness, Depression, suicide, hateful behavior, murders, you name it and crime has gone up since Trump ( fact) because people thought it was ok to be mean and nasty, jerks, because the president was. CRIME IS UP EVERYWHERE!! PERIOD!. My nephew was killed in prison by prison guards while being there for a non-violent crime. Not in NY but in Florida. Crime in Florida has gone up in all of these republicans ( on thr panel states) and from all over the country moving here. All of these states crime rate are higher than NY. So when you get gun control then maybe we can really be considered the United States of America. You can't ignore the stats although I know republicans don't like facts.
