Another interesting brawl between the state of New York and the Trump administration.
So the New York City Transit Authority is always a problem.
And it gets $14 billion from the federal government.
Well, the Department of Justice wants to know exactly how bad the crime is in New York City Subways.
They want the data.
The city of New York has not handed it over, and therefore the $14 billion may be held up.
Now, I think you'll work this out, but the fact of the matter is that the MTA doesn't want to give these stats out because it's violent down there in the subway.
and the stats about assaults are harrowing.
Fifty-six percent higher now than they were in 2019.
Fifty-six percent felony assaults.
What that means is you have roving gangs and you have individuals who are mentally ill riding the trains.
Some of them know where else to live.
They sleep on the trains.
And then if they're intoxicated or they feel like it, they'll come up to you and punch you in the face.
And then if they're arrested and the odds of that are maybe 50 to 1 because a cop would have to see it, all right?
They're not prosecuted because Alvin Bragg and the other DAs are really interested in that's low-level crime.
So you get in a broken nose, knocking out your teeth.
That's low-level.
That's not really important.
And then we'll let the guy do it again to as many people as he wants
because we won't incarcerate him.
So the Justice Department knows this and they want the stats.
And New York City doesn't want to hand him over.
Now, this goes to public disorder.
And it goes right to Mayor Adams, right to Governor Hokel,
and the progressive Democratic machine that runs the city of New York
and much of the state.
I'm lucky I live in Nassau County.
And once you cross from Queens,
it's only 10 miles away for me,
into Nassau, totally different law.
So if you're selling fentanyl and heroin
in Jamaica, Queens,
and you decide to take a ride with your stash
into Hempstead on Long Island
and you're caught by Nassau County Police,
you're going to get hurt.
You're going to get punished.
Okay, because the DA here will prosecute you.
They will put you in jail.
And there is a chance that you'll have much more stringent bail here in Nassau and Suffolk as well than in New York City.
So the dealers, they don't come over here.
They put their couriers that people can barely speak English, the migrants, the idiots, the drug addicts.
They give them, they deliver it to this, deliver it to that.
but they don't come over here, the dealers, because they know that it can get really intense.
We don't have a National County street crime like they have in New York City.
So I can walk around almost every town here, and I have to worry about somebody coming up and punching me in the face.
Because if that happens, that would be a felony assault that would be carried through, and a person might serve time.
not New York. Now, the federal government has a right to protect all citizens, not only a right,
but an obligation. And if the Justice Department said, look, we have an out of control situation
in San Francisco, in Chicago, in New York City, and all three of those places you do,
then they're not going to get federal dollars until they clean it up. And that's why the mayor,
is not going to win. Cuomo will beat Adams in the primary. On the other side, Curtis Sliwa,
who is the toughest of the candidates against crime, he, if the Democrats can divide as a chance,
can win, the mayoralty. And I'm watching that. Because if Cuomo and Adams divide the vote,
than Slewa could get enough.
Very interesting.
But for our purposes, here tonight,
I do believe the MTA will have to give their stats up to the federal government.
We'll see how appalling they are.
This is why Adams is going to lose.
I don't believe Cuomo can really, he'll say he can,
but he's responsible for the Nobel debacle.
