Thoughts?

It’s easy to say crime is down when you simply stop responding to crimes. Every day, 45,000 vagrants commit arson, theft, drug crimes, animal abuse, and sex offenses in full public view, and they go completely ignored by this failed Mayor, and she has the audacity to say “crime is down”? She thinks you’re dumb.

NYC: For the first time since 1994, LIRR service has stopped due to a labor strike.

Today's LIRR strike was caused by a failure of leadership by Kathy Hochul. The Governor found the time and money to buy off Mamdani but had no time or energy to prevent this strike which will impact hundreds of thousands of hardworking New Yorkers.

Do you know what happened in the last 24 hours?

1. Late on Thursday night FBI agents landed at New York Stewart International Airport with Mohammad al Saadi in handcuffs. Al Saadi, the leader of an Iran-backed Iraqi terror group is allegedly responsible for more than 20 attacks across Europe and Canada and for planning attacks in the U.S..

2. Jose Enrique Martinez Flores, who goes by “Chuqui," the highest ranking Tren de Aragua leader to be extradited to the U.S., also just landed in the U.S. in shackles. Flores allegedly oversaw TdA’s drug trafficking, extortion rackets, prostitution rings and murder operations.

Then, last night, in an operation that makes any fictional representation look amateurish, American operators, working with local Nigerian forces, killed Abu-Bilal-al-Minuki, the second in command for ISIS global operations, a man with the blood of countless innocents on his hands, including many Christians.

This is just one day in the Counterterrorism operations of President Donald Trump.

We salute the intelligence professionals, Law Enforcement Officers, Diplomats, Military operators and support personnel who make these operations possible 24/7.
