**Incompetence**
In the wake of a tragic incident in New York City where a woman was brutally killed on the subway, Governor Kathy Hochul's response has raised eyebrows and ignited controversy.
Hochul took to social media to promote a sense of safety in the subway system on the very day a woman was set on fire by a suspect from Guatemala.
This appalling crime leads us to question the leadership of a governor who seems more preoccupied with deceptive narratives than actually protecting New Yorkers.
The suspect's violent actions highlight the serious issue of public safety and the growing concern among residents regarding the state’s soft-on-crime policies.
In a striking call-out, Democrat Congressman Ritchie Torres echoed the frustrations many New Yorkers are feeling, stating that dangerous individuals are "allowed to freely roam the subway."
He criticized Hochul's “victory lap” regarding subway safety, just hours after two other subway riders were stabbed in Queens.
Rep. Mike Lawler, a Republican voice in New York, didn’t hold back either, stressing that the state must enforce tougher laws against repeat offenders and end cashless bail.
He emphasized that Hochul’s administration is failing its citizens by not prioritizing public safety and supporting law enforcement.
The concern over criminal activity is not just limited to policy discussions; it is a matter of life and death for New Yorkers.
In fact, a recent Siena College poll reveals that an overwhelming majority of residents are now demanding a change in leadership, with 57% expressing a desire for someone new to take office in the next election.
With rising crime rates and a palpable sense of danger on the streets, it is clear that Hochul's approach is unacceptable.
The recent horror on the subway has made it abundantly clear: New Yorkers are fed up with government leaders who refuse to confront reality head-on.
As the demand for public safety grows louder, so does the call for a change that can return a sense of security to our streets and subways.
It’s time for the leadership in New York to prioritize the safety of its citizens over misleading narratives and ineffective policies.
