Oh fuck off.

New York State will probably go red at some point in the next twenty years. It’s got an incredibly rare combination of some of the wealthiest capitalists in the country living in the same electorate as some of the poorest and most disillusioned. People forget that Trump was born, raised, and became wealthy in this state. That it has one of the most overfunded police departments on the planet. This kind of rhetoric would be expected from someone like desantis, but instead it’s coming from New York. Crazy.
The NYPD has its own intelligence agency, has headquarters all over the world, its own submarine, and over a billion in funding
If you can’t stop crime with all those resources, then you’re just pathetic. Being unable to reduce crime “because of masks” despite all those resources just makes you look even more pathetic. But then I keep forgetting that making yourself look pathetic is often times a great narrative. Like how the CIA and FBI fumbled 9/11, or how the Israelis fumbled 7/11, or how the US “didn’t help enough in Rwandan.” The bleeding hearts get to feel justified in supporting more oppression, and the conservatives are there to seal the deal and ‘convince’ any hold outs.
Please make this a tagline.
So all that stuff about Chinese overseas police stations was just projection as usual.
Any more info on what actually went on there?
