Hochul deploys hundreds of National Guard members to NYC subway system
Story by Andrea Margolis • 17h

New York Mayor Eric Adams on migrant crisis: We've created a 'pipeline of criminality'
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul announced on Wednesday that hundreds of National Guard members have been deployed to patrol the New York City subway system this holiday season.

Speaking at a news conference on Tuesday, Hochul confirmed that 750 National Guard members and 250 members of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) Police were recently sent to guard New York City train stations.
 
"It's clear to me, as I've heard from many people, that the presence of the National Guard has made not just a physical difference, but a psychological difference in how they feel about safety," Hochul said. "When people see a person in uniform… even our National Guard, they feel more secure."

Hochul previously unveiled her five-point subway safety plan in March, when she deployed 750 members of the National Guard to assist the New York Police Department (NYPD) with bag searches at entrances to busy train stations.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Why?  Everyone knows the crime rate has plummeted since NYC became a sanctuary. :whistle:

"Hochul deploys hundreds of National Guard members to NYC subway system"

Are they going to be carrying their [automatic] rifles?
...and be prepared to use them?

Or will they be "just props" ???

I'm guessing that when it comes down to the brass tacks, guys like Dan Penny will be far more effective than "the National Guard" ...

What portion of a state's national guard budget is paid by federal dollars?

Anybody know?

I am sure they have "do not intervene" orders. They will just stand there and watch.
You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.

Last night (Dec. 22), two people were stabbed (one dead), and a third person assaulted on a southbound 7-train in Queens, NY. Police arrested 3 suspects. All illegal aliens.

This comes just hours after the NYPD apprehended the illegal who set the woman on fire on the F train in Brooklyn.
