Who gains from New York’s pro-crime culture? Kathy Hochul and drug cartels
new York Post ^ | September 13, 2022 | Bob McManus

Two-plus years into New York’s war on public order, it’s clear who the victims have been: Blood-spattered city sidewalks from Brooklyn to Buffalo speak for themselves.

But cui bono — who are the beneficiaries?

Gov. Kathy Hochul, for one. And the Mexican drug cartels.

Hochul because she’s soaring politically as the titular head of a Democratic Party that elevates post-George Floyd ideology over common sense and public safety. She’s Andrew Cuomo’s cynical little sister in this regard — not so bombastic as her predecessor but equally invested in the criminal justice “reforms” that have turned so many urban neighborhoods into combat zones.

The cartels because they are commercial enterprises making bank off the post-“reform” falloff in law enforcement. Doubt it? Drug busts are way down and overdose deaths are way up; just do the math. The symbiosis is shocking and shameful.

...

The Democratic Party at all levels has embraced the post-Floyd ethic — cops are bad; criminals are victims — because it seems to pay politically. They’ve been stacking bodies like firewood in the Bronx, for example, even as borough native son and Assembly Speaker Carl Heastie prospers.

And transnational drug dealers — from the Mexican wholesalers to New York’s street-corner retail trade — are cash-flush like never before. The fentanyl pipeline is one supply chain that never even hiccupped during the pandemic.

...

In New York, the now-infamous cashless bail and related pro-criminal laws already were making effective policing increasingly pointless. And progressive district attorneys like Manhattan’s Alvin Bragg prospered at the polls while promising to be as soft on crime as they can get away with.

(New York is not unique here, of course. Chicago, as sanguinary a city as any to be found in America, just prohibited pursuit of felons fleeing crime scenes,

I believe they are, as well as China.
Whomever is against the Southern border control, you can almost be certain there is a cartel payoff.

Corruption thrives in chaos. Who gains, simple, those in charge of the purse strings.

The people in NY must like the way things are because they keep the politicians in office and won’t vote for law and order candidates. They are embracing the suck.

——Who Gains-——

The Black minority that the Democrats are protecting at all costs.

If a fraction of Blacks desert to the Afro Heritage minority-minority, the Democrat party ceases to exist as a meaningful power

Colorado Front Range too. I call them coastal tapeworms. They kill the host and go looking for another.

Me too and some Republicans. It’s the only explanation as to what’s going on. Would love to have their bank accounts investigated.

Ignoring the fact that ELECTIONS. ARE. STOLEN. and have been for a long time.

Dems steal elections. THAT is how they “win”, not because the majority of people vote for them. State, local, federal positions - stolen.

In my state, it turned blue about 20 years ago once dems managed to get mail in voting, plus illegals getting DL, DL gives everyone voter registration form, sanctuary state, etc. NY same deal, CA, WA, etc. Most states use voting “systems” from Konnech and/or Dominion, all manipulated and controlled. I live in a “blue” state and our elections are ROTTEN.

People need to understand that “we” did not vote for this shit. We are in utterly lawless territory with stolen elections in so many states.
