The "massive (percentage) increase" in assaults on ICE officers is a good example of How to Lie with Statistics * (1954, still a good book, worth a read).

For comparison, NYPD is averaging 194 assaults on officers per MONTH. from: DHS Still Pretending 15 Assaults A Month Is Evidence Of Widespread Violence Against ICE Officers https://www.techdirt.com/2025/07/23/dhs-still-pretending-15-assaults-a-month-is-evidence-of-widespread-violence-against-ice-officers/ https://www.techdirt.com/2025/07/23/dhs-still-pretending-15-... * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_Lie_with_Statistics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_to_Lie_with_Statistics
