This is exactly why they turned on him.
I just found out tonight that governor Hochul is going to tell him to resign or she will remove him.
He spoke out loud about the devastation of immigrants. And the dems came for him.

The internal link there goes to a chart of MTA data showing fare evasion rates on buses over the period 2019 to 2024. Over that interval, the rate increased from just over 20% to almost 50%. At one million non-paying passengers per day on the buses alone, and almost $3 per ride, this would appear to be approximately a $1 billion per year issue for the agency. A 14% evasion rate on the subways could add another half a billion. It’s real money.

Initially, I was surprised by these very high reported rates of fare evasion. After all, as a Manhattan resident, I regularly use both the subways and buses. Yes, I would observe the occasional rider jumping the turnstile, or boarding a bus without paying. But the rate of fare evasion I would observe was around 5% or less of the passengers. Where did the MTA come up with these very high numbers? ...

If you look on Zillow, you will find that the prices for these types of houses in this area are in the range of about $500,000 to $1 million — well above the median value of a single family house in the U.S. as a whole.

And here are the results of my investigation: On my first trip, I was amazed to observe that on the first half of the bus route (the majority-black neighborhoods), almost nobody paid. Then suddenly, the bus crossed Flatbush Avenue, and the ethnicity of the neighborhood changed. After that, almost (but not quite) everybody paid. But on that first trip, I had not positioned myself to make a perfect count of who paid and who did not. So the second trip, I made sure take a seat where I could get an exact count of payers and non-payers by observed race. This time, more riders were paying, but still, 25 of 44 black riders did not pay, and only 4 of 40 from other races. Yes, I may have mis-identified a few people, but not enough to change the overall gist of the result.

The race of the bus driver answers all the questions. In Chicago they're almost exclusively black drivers. Female as well. Black males will throw around their weight around. Fact is there are no consequences for not paying anymore.

I don't like it, but we're already funding them anyway in so many realms. I'm raising a black child because his dad is a dead beat, locked up in jail. Black men started failing in the 80's roughly. It's been downhill ever since. A black man has to get with a snow bunny to stand a chance and that's a 50/50 proposition at best to be successful. Another black chick.... hell no. That's disaster.

President Trump Responds to Letter from 250 Unvaxxed NYC Workers!

Aura Moody - coauthor of the letter signed by over 250 Unvaccinated NYC Workers that was sent to Donald Trump last month - has received a response from The Office of President-Elect Donald J. Trump. The response states that Trump has said they will “keep your letter on file to refer to the appropriate federal agency for possible assistance after January 20, 2025” (after Trump officially takes office).

We would all like to thank President-Elect Donald Trump for taking the time to acknowledge our struggles and to reply to us before the holidays; it means so much!

Quite different from the rejection we received from NYC City Council yesterday - December 19 - also just before the holidays.
