Hochul Erupts in Callous Flames of Subway-Terranean Hubris UPDATE

There's your brain on drugs...

...and then there's your brain on whatever worm eats into a Democratic cerebral cortex.

Democratic voters see and hear these people, these barely disguised racial ideologues who despise them but are rarely capable of stringing a coherent sentence together themselves

Yet they reelect them time and again, only to moan as once great cities - their homes - fall apart before their eyes.

Their very security falls prey to unfathomable evil unleashed by these same elected Democratic elites even as they are bald-faced lied to about conditions.

Don't believe your lying eyes, the misinformation, the agents of disorder and hate, the Bidens, Harrises, Hochuls, et al, exhort.

Look here, peasants, as they wave from heavily secured photo-ops and freshly sanitized locations - things are safe, clean, inexpensive, and fresh!

Quit whining and do as you're told.

Why, even the Queen herself would be proud to be here...and so she was.

YAY, ME!

Gov Kathy Hochul took that ride yesterday, crowing to lucky New Yorkers how SHE'D made 'the subway safer for millions who take the trains each day."

AND SHE DID IT ALL FOR YOU, UNGRATEFUL CURS

It was less than a week ago that a 72-year-old had been happily riding the 'Holiday Nostalgia Train' when his trip down Memory Lane went horribly wrong on one of the governor's 'safe' subway platforms. 

He's only alive, he says, thanks to the 'angels on that platform.'

'I don't want' the city 'to be this way,' he said from the hospital bed where he now lies, awaiting spinal surgery thanks to the intentional, potentially murderous shove.

A joy-filled holiday tradition turned terrifying in an instant for one New York City man Sunday.

The 72-year-old was pushed onto the subway tracks after riding the Holiday Nostalgia Train.

"I was assaulted. I was terrified. I could have been killed," Robert said.

Robert asked we not share his last name or show his face but felt passionate about sharing his story in hopes it will ignite change.

"I love the city and I don't want it to be this way," he said.

Gosh - that poor man seems to have such a different impression of the city than his governor does. It's almost as if there were two different cities in two different worlds. The one he inhabits daily, and the rarified air the governor is cocooned by when she rarely travels into that wilderness where he dwells.

In her worldview, none of what he experienced is happening anymore. 

Ridership is 'going up,' said the boastful gov, and, most importantly, 'crime is going DOWN.' In her elite cocoon, saying it makes it so.

What also went 'down' yesterday - mere hours before the self-important and chirpy announcement from Hochul - was the population of the city thanks to two brutal murders on the subway

The morning started with the ghastly, unthinkable, monstrous murder of a sleeping woman by an illegal who had made his way to Governor Hochul's sanctuary city, sponging off of NYC taxpayers. 

The lone occupant was a woman, sitting up but asleep on one of the subway car benches. This animal soaked her clothes with lighter fluid and calmly flicked a match at her.

He then wandered outside the car to take a seat on a platform bench, watching the flames consume her as she died. 

The sumbitch sat impassively through all the hubbub as people became aware of the fire, never leaving until police asked him to move along out of concern for his own safety.

The video is...sweet Mother of God.

And, yes - that's the Guatemalan illegal sitting in the lefthand side of the picture, watching as the human torch of a victim stumbles to the subway car door. 

No one helps, although they do get video of it. He doesn't move until the cops get there...

...“As the train pulled into the station, the suspect calmly walked up to the victim, who was in a seated position at the end of a subway car … and used what we believe to be a lighter to ignite the victim’s clothing, which became fully engulfed in a matter of seconds,” Tisch said at a press conference.

Patrolling cops smelled and saw the smoke, then followed it to the flame-covered woman, the commissioner said.  

They extinguished the blaze, but the victim died at the scene.

Officials said the 33-year-old suspect came to the US in 2018 from Guatemala. He was detained by border patrol agents in Arizona in June of that year, sources said. His legal status wasn’t immediately clear Sunday night.

He received a transit summons in May 2023, but his criminal record in New York City was largely clean otherwise, sources said. He was living at a shelter on Randall’s Island at the time of the infraction.

Horrifying video obtained by The Post showed the suspect calmly looking on as flames consumed the still-unidentified woman, who stood inside the open subway car door.

...to extinguish the poor victim's flames and shoo him off the bench. 

They almost didn't get him.

...The suspect brazenly sat on a nearby bench as cops huddled around, pulling his hood up at one point just before an officer spoke to him.

“Do me a favor? Walk down there,” the cop said, motioning down the platform with his radio. “I need this space cleared up.”

The man stood up, then left the scene.

When cops realized their mistake, it was a wild effort to swarm him before the savage could leave the scene.

The cold-blooded, murderous scumbag illegally entered the country in 2018. Border patrol agents in AZ reportedly stopped him in June of that year, but there's no status available past that encounter other than a 'transit summons' last year in NYC. He has been living in a Randall's Island shelter.

Hours later, the smiling, buoyant state's governor tells the world what a terrific job she's done.

YAY, ME!

Is it possible to be any more horrifically a tone-deaf, insensitive, out-of-touch, self-absorbed, elitist gaslighting tool than that press release mere hours after an unthinkable murder on the very system you're bragging about?

The tools of Hochul's subservient system made sure to trot out the Greek chorus, reinforcing the 'Yass, Queen' message to the peasantry.

...At the press conference to discuss the apprehension of the illegal entrant subway incinerator of humans, the MTA Chief Security Officer took time to glorify and praise Kathy Hochul, the MTA's Lord Janno Lieber, and MTA President Demetrius Crichlow for placing cameras on subway cars. 

He used words like "proud" and "congratulations" on a day that a woman was set on a fire.

The lengths and slime Democrats willingly crawl through to fellate each other, and the powerful, however unworthy and/or duplicitous, never ceases to amaze me. They show absolutely no shame in debasing themselves, even as lives are lost because of the very people and policies they are publicly slobbering over.

It is so sickening.

Sickening farcical performance art with deadly consequences. But, true - not for any Democratic brahmins bragging at the podium.

Hours later, and not to be outdone, the Queens decided to close out the governor's 'Safe Subway Sunday Celebration' with a little flair-up of their own.

Brooklyn got their dibs in before the close of business.

The day was not a resounding success for the Hochul's 'YAY, ME!' subway safety message.

The original self-congratulatory Xweet remains up, so obviously, the enormous outrage storm that ensued hasn't been able to dent the Democratic denial dome; the collective obtuseness is that entrenched. 

That smug entitlement.

That knows-better-than-you, is-better-than-you. 

That 'YAY, ME!' mentality with peasant bodies as collateral damage.

BEEGE UPDATE: Democrats and that body count. You bet there's news on what happened with this illegal alien after that 2018 arrest.

...I’m told he was arrested by Border Patrol on 6/1/2018 after he crossed illegally into Arizona, and he was deported just days later on 6/7/2018. DHS has no record of him entering the U.S. after that, meaning he snuck back into the U.S. without any encounter with Border Patrol or CBP - but it’s unknown where and when that happened.

As of right now, there are unconfirmed reports it was a 29-year-old SUNY student who was so horrifically murdered.

As soon as I have more on that, I'll add it.
