LOL. The theater kids in this administration brought brought in risers for the anti-mobility fetishists like it’s class picture day in elementary school.
Tallest in the back. Everyone sing, smile, and clap on command.
It's a good time to remember that MTA, known for its efficiency, high level of service delivery, and customer satisfaction has been upgrading "signals" since the Clinton administration.

ANOTHER MOSTLY PEACEFUL ASSAULT ON A CHILD IN THE DEADLY AND DANGEROUS NYC SUBWAY
It's a good time to remember that as compared with 2019, the reported violent crime rates in the deadly and dangerous subway are as follows:
• Total Violent crime: +53.09%
• Murder: +249.22%
• Rape: +132.81%
• Felony assault: +133.59%
• Robbery: -3.42%
Imagine having a $127B budget and still being unable to adequately staff essential city agencies.
Unlike many government functions, the NYC Department of Buildings also helps generate revenue, facilitating construction that expands the property tax base and other tax collections, in addition to the fees it collects.
Yet somehow, an office dedicated to taxpayer-funded propaganda is considered a better use of resources.
THE CITY OF NEW YORK WANTS 700,000 NEW HOMES BUT HASN’T BOTHERED TO SHARPEN THE AXE
“Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.”
New York City is promising 700,000 new homes but where is the plan to prepare the Department of Buildings to approve and inspect them?
DOB has just 1,613 employees - fewer than it had in 2020 including only 122 assistant plan examiners, 338 construction inspectors, 49 plumbing inspectors and 35 electrical inspectors.
The existing system is already deteriorating.
*Average filing-to-approval time has exploded from 8.3 days in FY2020 to 23.6 days in early FY2026.
*Electrical-inspection waits have soared from 2.6 days to 12.8 days.
*Construction and plumbing inspection times have more than doubled.
DOB itself blames “resource constraints” and reduced staffing capacity.
Yet, the city has produced no public workforce plan showing how many additional examiners, inspectors or administrative employees will be needed to process 700,000 homes.
No staffing targets.
No hiring timetable.
No productivity measurements.
No credible operational plan.
Just another colossal promise from a city government that announces the destination before determining whether it has an engine, a driver or any fuel.
You cannot press-release 700,000 homes into existence.
Another empty promise, while you pay more for less and less each day.

Felony assaults, the most frequently occurring violent crime, YTD already exceed the FULL-YEAR total for every year dating back to 2000 in Midtown North.
New York’s most iconic destinations have been turned into the backdrop for a quarter-century assault record.

Hey @GovKathyHochul this illegal alien terrorist was living in the Bronx, aided by your sanctuary policies. You must be so proud...
TWICE-DEPORTED ILLEGAL ALIEN ARRESTED AFTER ALLEGED BOMB THREAT
Rony Alexander Gomez-Alberto allegedly attempted to storm the cockpit of a United flight while claiming to have a bomb, prompting a hijack alert.
Americans should NEVER have to face threats like this, especially from an illegal alien who should never have been in our country in the first place.
Under President Trump, the safety of American citizens will ALWAYS come first. The men and women of ICE will continue working around the clock to MAKE AMERICA SAFE AGAIN!
MAKE IT MAKE SENSE...
Unfit to stand trial, but apparently deemed perfectly fit to be housed in a taxpayer-funded homeless shelter in one of Manhattan’s most dense, commercially active, and transit-heavy neighborhoods.
Another great Kathy Hochul success story....
It's a good time that to remember that this payday loan is in addition to the bailout Kathy Hochul already gave Albany this year.
In fact, 7 out of 8 of New York's largest cities needed bailouts this year from you.
2026 bailouts by population rank:
#1 NYC - $4 BILLION
#2 Buffalo - $70 MILLION
#3 Yonkers - $55 MILLION
#4 Rochester - $25 MILLION
#5 Syracuse - $35 MILLION
#6 Albany - $20 MILLION
#8 Mount Vernon - $12.5 MILLION
Creating economic dependency to get people to vote for you is not cheap.

NYPD detectives assigned to the U.S. Marshals NY/NJ Regional Fugitive Task Force with support from @USMarshalsHQ partners took Dereck Rivera-Deleon into custody today while he was working at Burger King in Miami for allegedly raping a woman in Central Park on October 24, 2026. Rivera-Deleon will also be charged with two rapes that occurred in Central Park in 2023 and 2021.
The NYPD will stop at nothing to get dangerous criminals off our streets.
