Clicking on the human rights link in your quote:

The United States is ranked well[5][6] on human rights by various organizations. For example, the Freedom in the World index lists the United States 53rd in the world for civil and political rights, with 83 out of 100 points as of 2023;[7][8] the Press Freedom Index, published by Reporters Without Borders, put the U.S. 55th out of 180 countries in 2024,[9] the Democracy Index, published by the Economist Intelligence Unit, classifies the United States as a "flawed democracy".[8].

One would hardly think 53rd and 55th is 'among the world's highest'.
