1. Crime Statistics Manipulation
Allegations:
U.S. Attorney and House Oversight Committee report claim D.C. authorities and outgoing Police Chief Pamela Smith manipulated crime data to make the city appear safer.

Impact:
Trump’s crime reduction efforts were more significant than previously thought because actual crime was higher than reported.

2. Affordable Care Act Fraud

Widespread vulnerabilities and fraud in ACA subsidies.
Fake applicants approved for coverage; 23 out of 24 fraudulent applications succeeded.
$94 million paid for deceased individuals; 68,000 Social Security numbers reused for multiple people.
Criticism:
ACA premiums have skyrocketed since inception, rising faster than employer coverage and inflation.
Insurance companies allegedly benefit from fraud and donate heavily to Democrats.
Republican Response:
House Republicans propose legislation to lower premiums and fix systemic issues.

3. Housing Affordability & Immigration
Claims:
Housing costs surged under Biden due to influx of illegal immigrants competing for homes.
Trump administration’s mass deportations credited with lowering rents (−1.1% YoY, −5.2% vs. 2022 peak).
