In an X post on Sunday, Hochul claimed that crime has decreased on Big Apple trains since she deployed the National Guard in March. Last week, Hochul sent 750 National Guard members to the subways in an effort to curb holiday crime.
"In March, I took action to make our subways safer for the millions of people who take the trains each day," Hochul's post read. "Since deploying the @NationalGuardNY to support @NYPDnews and @MTA safety efforts and adding cameras to all subway cars, crime is going down, and ridership is going up."
Hochul's post came around eight hours after a migrant from Guatemala allegedly set a woman on fire and watched her burn to death on an F train in Brooklyn. The horrific crime had been widely reported by the time the governor's tweet went up.
Several social media users responded to Hochul's tweet with graphic footage of the immolation. The tweet also briefly had an X community note attached to it, which referenced the killing.

When you have to deploy the NG to make the people safe, you have a cultural problem. Could mean Leftism is ruining the city.

You know the saying...
Democrats only have to be right once... on the day the cameras are recording their ad.
The rest of us have to be right every day of the year.

She meant it was safer for homicidal “migrants.”
