U.S. murder rate is on the rise, according to a new grim report from the FBI
U.S. murder rate is on the rise, according to a grim FBI report. The FBI estimates 22,900 murders took place in 2021.
According to a new report just released by the FBI, murders in the United States are on the rise.
The numbers are grim in this disturbing new trend that’s happening across the country.
The report from the FBI shows on hat violent crime rates are rising nationwide.
Whether it’s subway attacks, aggravated assault or even cold-blooded murder—violent crime in the United States is on the rise.
The statistics from the FBI show from 2020 to 2021 murders increased by 4.3%.
This is in addition to the murder rate that shot up significantly from 2019 to 2020 which showed that murders increased by 29.4%.
FBI officials insist the new numbers—while official— are technically estimates.
However, the 2021 statistics do not include data from the New York, or Los Angeles police departments—suggesting that the true number of murders is significantly higher.
Just over the weekend, Paul Kurtz, was killed while visiting his son at college. Authorities say a homeless man open fire in a Poughkeepsie, New York hotel killing the 53-year-old father.
Meanwhile, FBI Director Christopher Wray seemingly laid the blame on prosecutors who are soft on crime.
“I hear this from chiefs and sheriffs all the time across our country, more and more some of the worst offenders one way or another continue to find themselves back out on street.”

NASA’s Artemis II rocket is ready for its first crewed Moon mission in over 50 years, featuring Argentina’s ATENEA microsatellite.
NASA’s Artemis II rocket has arrived at Kennedy Space Center, marking the first crewed Moon mission in more than five decades.
The mission will carry a crew of four astronauts on a ten-day journey around the Moon, with a wet dress rehearsal scheduled for February 2 to test all systems.
In a historic moment for Latin America, Argentina’s ATENEA microsatellite will join the Artemis II mission as secondary cargo. Developed through a collaboration of Argentine institutions, ATENEA will collect crucial data on radiation and communications systems in space, making Argentina the only Latin American country contributing to this milestone mission.
The Artemis II mission will also validate life support and spacecraft systems ahead of Artemis III, NASA’s planned crewed lunar landing in 2027. With the SLS rocket and Orion spacecraft now on Launch Pad 39B, excitement is building for this next giant leap in space exploration.

Iran warns U.S. retaliation as protest death toll soars — executions feared, nationwide unrest
Iran warns of severe retaliation against U.S. strikes, amid escalating tensions and internal unrest.
Iran warns of severe retaliation against U.S. strikes, amid escalating tensions and internal unrest.
Iran has issued a stark warning of a severe response to any U.S. military strike, with leaders stressing that military action would be treated as an act of war.
President Masoud Pezeshkian cautioned that attacks on strategic sites or leadership figures could trigger retaliation against U.S. and allied forces in the region — including potential targets in Israel and American bases. These warnings come as tensions between Tehran and Washington escalate amid sustained unrest across Iran.
The backdrop for this diplomatic brinkmanship is a bitter standoff between Tehran and the U.S., with U.S. President Donald Trump publicly debating options for intervention and criticising Iran’s leadership.
Tehran, for its part, has blamed external forces for stoking internal dissent and insists it will fiercely defend its sovereignty.

Major EU nations criticize Trump’s Greenland tariffs as “blackmail,” risking trade agreements and raising tensions across the Atlantic.
Major EU nations are pushing back against President Trump’s tariff threats over Greenland, calling them “blackmail” and raising tensions across the Atlantic. Germany and France are reportedly considering economic countermeasures to respond to the U.S. stance.
Trade agreements with the UK and the EU could be at risk, as these threats put key negotiations in jeopardy. The European Parliament is also expected to pause discussions on the EU-U.S. trade deal, signaling a growing rift.
Meanwhile, British officials insist their position on Greenland is non-negotiable, adding complexity to an already tense situation.
