Kathy Hochul touted subway safety in New York City in a post on X, and is facing criticism over her “tone-deaf” post.40 YEARS BEFORE DANIEL PENNY CASE, BERNHARD GOETZ’S SUBWAY VIGILANTE SHOOTING SHOCKED US AHEAD OF CHRISTMASHochul claimed that crime has decreased on NYC subways since she deployed the National Guard to mitigate the issue earlier this year, approximately eight hours after the woman’s murder. Hochul sent 750 National Guard members to the subways last week in an effort to keep holiday crime in check.”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,” she wrote in her post.Fox News Digital previously reached out to Hochul’s office for comment on the criticism, but did not immediately hear back.President-elect Trump’s incoming border czar Tom Homan slammed Hochul on Monday during an interview on “Fox & Friends.””Governor Hochul, shame on you. There’s nothing you can say that’s going to make this right in New York,” Homan said. Homan, who recently journeyed to the Big Apple to discuss illegal migrant crime with New York City Mayor Eric Adams, pinned some of the blame on the Biden administration for lax federal immigration policies.”Here’s another example of an illegal alien killing an American citizen. It’s almost a daily occurrence now, because a historic number of criminal aliens are walking the streets, because of this administration’s policy in sanctuary jurisdictions and lax immigration enforcement,” he said.Fox News Digital’s Taylor Penley contributed to this report.
