New York Governor Kathy Hochul is mobilizing 1,000 National Guard troops and State Police officers across New York City's subway system in a show of force meant as a warning to criminals who have been terrorizing passengers.
Gov. Hochul announced earlier today that 750 guardsmen and 250 law enforcement officers would be deployed across "the city's busiest transit stations" amid out-of-control violent crime.
What's puzzling - is if the only threats were violent criminals and migrants, why deploy the National Guard? The NYPD is fully capable of increasing its presence and flooding subway stations with officers. This raises the possibility that the threat is more significant than just migrants, potentially hinting at terrorism-related concerns.
