Hochul’s Christmastime boast of safer subway came amid string of alarming violent attacks

In the days since New York Gov. Kathy Hochul declared New York City’s subways had improved in safety, a woman was burned alive, a man was pushed in front of an oncoming train and gangs of illegal immigrants have robbed straphangers. Just before Christmas, the Democrat took to X to claim that, since March, she has taken action to make subways “safer for the millions of people who take the trains each day.” “Since deploying the [New York National Guard] to support [the NYPD] and MTA, safety efforts and adding cameras to all subway cars, crime is going down, and ridership is going up,” she wrote on Dec. 22. The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), while mostly serving the five boroughs, Long Island and Lower Hudson Valley suburbs, is a state-operated, not city-operated, agency. However, in that short time, an illegal immigrant allegedly set a woman on fire on an F train, a man miraculously survived being shoved in front of a 1 train and Venezuelan gang members have been robbing straphangers at will. In Coney Island, Guatemalan national Sebastian Zapeta was charged with murder after allegedly lighting a Toms River, New Jersey, woman on fire while she slept on board an F train at the Stillwell Avenue Terminal. That incident occurred the morning of Dec. 22, hours before Hochul’s post. The victim, Debrina Kawam, once worked for Merck Pharmaceuticals in the early 2000s but had more recently lived in a New York City homeless shelter. Zapeta’s arraignment has been set for Tuesday. He told the NYPD he overindulges in alcohol and “doesn’t know what happened,” according to NBC News. “My office is very confident about the evidence in this case and our ability to hold Zapeta accountable for his dastardly deeds,” Kings County Democratic District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said of the case. Earlier this week, 23-year-old Kamel Hawkins of Brooklyn allegedly shoved an unsuspecting straphanger into the path of a South Ferry-bound 1 train at W 18th Street Station in Chelsea. Hawkins initially got away but was soon caught near Columbus Circle and Central Park, according to reports. The injured victim’s survival was lauded as a miracle, as he fell into a “trench” between the tracks as the train ran over him and was ambulanced to a hospital with head injuries. ECONOMIC EXPERTS PAN HOCHUL’S ‘INFLATIONARY’ INFLATION REFUNDS Hawkins had prior arrests for body-slamming a police officer in Queens. His father, Shamel Hawkins, told the New York Post, “We think somebody put something in his weed.” Shamel Hawkins said Kamel had been “acting weird” recently and that he “needs help” but continues to refuse to seek it. On New Year’s Day, WPIX reported two separate unprovoked subway stabbing incidents during daylight hours on the West Side. A 30-year-old man was reportedly stabbed in the head and hip awaiting a 1 train at 110 Street and Broadway. The station is in otherwise one of the safer areas of Manhattan, near Columbia University, the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, and the diner made famous in the sitcom “Seinfeld.” Another man was stabbed while awaiting a 2 train at 14th Street and 7th Avenue that same day, according to the outlet. Meanwhile, authorities found 22 Tren de Aragua migrant gang members during a raid on a residence in Crotona Park, Bronx last month. Federal law enforcement had tracked the ankle monitor of Jarwin Valero-Calderon – a Venezuelan national originally arrested in Nassau County and under a deportation order – to the building. HOCHUL SPARKS BIPARTISAN OUTRAGE OVER CONGESTION PRICING REBOOT AS DEMS WORRIED TRUMP WOULD BLOCK IT Hochul said in an X video on her account, called “This Week in New York,” that her “five-point plan to improve subway safety” has led to overall subway crime dropping 10% since March 2023. Hochul also said she will deploy 250 more National Guard members to take part in Joint Task Force: Empire Shield. In its December report on November’s crime stats, the NYPD listed subway crime as having decreased 15% that month from 240 reported incidents to 202 and a year-to-date decrease of 6% from 2,137 to 2,002. The NYPD said the subways saw their safest year-to-date figure in more than a decade. “We are all in this together, and while the downward trends in violence and disorder across New York City are highly encouraging as we enter the final month of 2024, we have a lot more work to do to deliver the public safety that New Yorkers deserve,” NYPD Commissioner Jessica S. Tisch said in a Dec. 3 statement. However, New Yorkers overall felt less safe on the MTA as of late. “Kathy Hochul needs to resign,” commentator Chaya Raichik – or “LibsOfTikTok”—wrote on X after chronicling some of the recent subway incidents, and claiming some of the recent underground robberies were committed by Tren de Aragua gang members. “Of course she won’t resign. These people care only about their power and the perks,” FOX Business host David Asman wrote in a reply. “Only New Yorkers can get rid of her.” “Daniel Penny for governor,” another X user commented, referring to the man acquitted in the death of a crazed straphanger who had been menacing passengers earlier this year. MTA Chairman Janno Lieber pledged during a March transit board meeting “we are not going back” to the mid-20th century when the subway was incredibly unsafe. “This is a nightmare for New Yorkers,” he said after learning Carlton McPherson – whom neighbors described to the Post as “a little off” – had recently fatally shoved a man in front of a Woodlawn-bound 4 train on 125 Street in Harlem. CLICK TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP Mayor Eric Adams also addressed the public sentiment in remarks earlier this year. “Public safety is the actual safety and it’s how people are feeling,” he said in March. “We know we have over 4 million riders a day and a reliable system.

Mike Johnson gets public GOP Senate support ahead of tight House speaker vote

House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., received public support from Republicans in the Senate as he faces an uncertain vote Friday to determine whether he will maintain the role in the new Congress.  “My friend [Johnson] has done an incredible job in the House, and I’m glad he’s at the helm there as Congress looks forward to growing our economy and safeguarding our communities in the new year,” said Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., on X.  HEALTHY LIVING, PARTY UNITY, AND ‘TIME TO SMELL THE ROSES’: CONGRESSIONAL REPUBLICANS’ NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS Johnson also got the backing of the other member of Lousiana’s Senate delegation, Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La. “I agree with President Trump that [Johnson] is the right man to lead. He’s a committed conservative and a man of integrity,” he wrote on X, referencing President-elect Donald Trump’s recent endorsement.  During the last-minute government-spending fight last month, most Republican senators were careful not to call for Johnson’s replacement. However, that didn’t stop others, such as Sens. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Mike Lee, R-Utah, from suggesting that someone else would do a better job.  BERNIE SANDERS PLANS TO SPEARHEAD LEGISLATION ON KEY TRUMP PROPOSAL “Technically, the rules of the House—I don’t think you have to be a member of the House to be speaker. And other people talked about it,” Paul told reporters in December. He noted that he has previously gotten stray votes to be speaker, as has Trump. “And so, we’ll leave it open to interpretation. I think that, hey, seriously, Elon Musk is having an impact.” When asked about his confidence in Johnson, Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala., sidestepped, saying, “I can’t make a decision. I don’t know him that well. He’s got to work with everybody else. He doesn’t have to work with us.” DEM SENATOR REVEALS HOW SHE NARROWLY WON KEY STATE THAT TRUMP FLIPPED: ‘BE PRACTICAL TO FIND RESULTS’ Since the House speaker will be selected solely by the lower chamber, few Republican senators are expected to weigh in publicly. But the fact that some have is notable in and of itself.  In order to be elected as the speaker of the House, a member must get a majority of the votes cast. Depending on whether all House members are there, how many vacancies there are, and whether anyone chooses to vote “present,” thereby lowering the majority threshold, Johnson could be in a situation where he can only afford to lose one GOP vote. There are still several House members that have said they are unsure whether they will back Johnson.  REPUBLICANS HAMMER BIDEN FOR FEDERAL DEATH ROW REPRIEVES AHEAD OF LEAVING OFFICE Additionally, at least one Republican lawmaker is a “no,” even after Trump’s endorsement.  “I respect and support President Trump, but his endorsement of Mike Johnson is going to work out about as well as his endorsement of Speaker Paul Ryan,” Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., wrote on X. “We’ve seen Johnson partner with the democrats to send money to Ukraine, authorize spying on Americans, and blow the budget.”  The speaker vote is set to take place on Friday to set the new Congress in motion.

‘Crime against journalism’: Gaza Journalists decry PA’s Al Jazeera ban

Deir el-Balah, Gaza – Journalists gathered at Gaza’s Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Hospital expressed outrage and confusion about the Palestinian Authority’s (PA) decision to shut down Al Jazeera’s office in the occupied West Bank. “Shutting down a major outlet like Al Jazeera is a crime against journalism,” said freelance journalist Ikhlas al-Qarnawi. “Al Jazeera coverage has documented Israeli crimes against Palestinians, especially during the ongoing genocide,” the 28-year-old journalist told Al Jazeera at the hospital, the most reliable internet connection in the Strip to file stories from. On Wednesday, the PA temporarily suspended Al Jazeera in the occupied West Bank for what they described as broadcasting “inciting material and reports that were deceiving and stirring strife” in the country. The decision came after Fatah, the Palestinian faction which dominates the PA, banned Al Jazeera from reporting from the governorates of Jenin, Tubas and Qalqilya in the occupied West Bank, citing its coverage of clashes between the Palestinian security forces and Palestinian armed groups in the area. Advertisement Al Jazeera criticised the PA ban, saying the move is “in line with the [Israeli] occupation’s actions against its staff”. ‘Obscuring the truth’ Since the beginning of the war, about 150 journalists have been working from the journalists’ tents at Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Hospital, for 20 local, international and Arab media outlets. Journalists, including those from Al Jazeera, have been forced to work from hospitals after their headquarters and media offices were destroyed. Wafa Hajjaj believes the PA’s move against Al Jazeera ‘worsens the situation’ [Abdelhakim Abu Riash/Al Jazeera] Al-Aqsa TV correspondent Mohammed Issa said from the hospital that the PA’s ban contradicts international laws that guarantee journalistic freedom and could further endanger journalists. “The PA’s decision obscures the truth and undermines the Palestinian narrative, especially a leading network like Al Jazeera,” Issa said, adding that the ban reinforces Israel’s narrative that “justifies the targeting of Palestinian journalists”. “All media workers in Gaza reject this decision that silences the largest Arab and global outlet during critical times in years.” Wafaa Hajjaj, an independent journalist working with TRT and Sahat, said the ban made her both “sad” and “disappointed”. “At a time when Israel is deliberately targeting and killing … journalists in Gaza, with our Jazeera colleagues at the forefront, with no international or institutional protection, the PA’s move in the West Bank comes to worsen the situation,” Hajjaj said as she and her team walked into the hospital to interview the wounded. Advertisement Israel has killed at least 217 journalists and media workers in Gaza since the beginning of its war on Gaza on October 7, 2023. Four of them were Al Jazeera journalists: Samer Abudaqa, Hamza al-Dahdouh, Ismail al-Ghoul and Ahmed al-Louh. ‘Trust Al Jazeera will persist’ Although frustrated, Hajjaj told Al Jazeera that she is hopeful the PA will drop its ban “as soon as possible”. “I trust Al Jazeera will persist despite all sanctions, as it has for years.” Yousef Hassouna, a photojournalist with 22 years of experience, also criticised the shutting of Al Jazeera along with “any other media outlet” targeted by such bans. “This is a violation against all of us Palestinian journalists,” he said, adding that Al Jazeera is “an essential platform” covering Israel’s war on Gaza. “Now more than ever, we Palestinian journalists need international support and protection, not limitations or restrictions,” Hassouna said. Freelance journalist said the closure of Al Jazeera is a ‘crime against journalism’ Ikhlas al-Qirnawi [Abdelhakim Abu Riash/Al Jazeera] ‘Critical mistakes’ Ismail al-Thawabtah, spokesperson for the government media bureau in Gaza, said the Palestinian Authority had committed two serious mistakes over the past few weeks. “The first: the attack on Jenin and the resulting military confrontation with our honourable Palestinian people and the resistance forces, and the second: the closure of the Al Jazeera office,” he said, adding that the move represents “serious violations of freedom of the press”. Advertisement Al-Thawabtah said both incidents required the PA to conduct a comprehensive review of policies and positions in line with supreme national interests and respect for the rights of our Palestinian people and their basic freedoms. As for the journalists gathered at Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Hospital, they were united in their call to end the ban. “We as journalists are completely against it. I hope that action will be taken to stop this decision immediately.” said the freelance journalist al-Qarnawi, adding that the ban hurts more than just journalists. “Our Palestinian people are the biggest losers.” Adblock test (Why?)

Musk calls for jailed UK far-right activist Tommy Robinson to be released

US technology billionaire says Tommy Robinson, who is serving in 18-month prison sentence, ‘should be freed’. Elon Musk has called for the jailed British far-right activist Tommy Robinson to be released and criticised UK Prime Minister Sir Kier Starmer for his response to grooming scandals when he served as the country’s chief prosecutor more than a decade ago. In a flurry of posts on social media on Thursday, the US technology billionaire said that Robinson, who founded the far-right English Defence League and whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, “should be freed”. “Why is Tommy Robinson in a solitary confinement prison for telling the truth?” Musk wrote on X, the social media platform he owns, on Thursday. “He should be freed and those who covered up this travesty should take his place in that cell,” he wrote. Robinson, a one-time football hooligan with a string of UK criminal convictions, is serving an 18-month jail term after he admitted contempt of court in a long-running libel case involving a Syrian refugee. Musk also posted several messages about the grooming scandals which took place over decades in a number of English towns and cities including Rochdale, Rotherham and Oldham until they were uncovered more than a decade ago. Advertisement Musk shared various other accounts’ claims around the scandals and criticised Starmer’s response to the scandal. “In the UK, serious crimes such as rape require the Crown Prosecution Service’s approval for the police to charge suspects. Who was the head of the CPS when rape gangs were allowed to exploit young girls without facing justice? Keir Starmer, 2008-2013,” he posted, criticising the current British prime minister. Starmer was the head of the CPS in that period and he began a prosecution of a grooming gang in Rochdale during his final year in the role, shortly after the scandal emerged. None of the probes into the scandals singled Starmer out for blame or found that he tried to block prosecutions. In 2012, Starmer blamed the justice system’s flawed approach to sexual exploitation and ordered a comprehensive restructuring of the CPS’s responses to it. Musk’s tweets on Robinson have garnered support from far-right figures, including Dutch politician Geert Wilders, as well as some right-wing YouTube channels who also called for his release. The US tech billionaire’s latest intervention in UK politics comes after his recent declaration of support for Germany’s far-right AfD party, where he claimed that AfD is the only party which can “save” Germany as the country heads towards snap elections next month. The German government has accused him of interfering in the vote. Musk has also openly backed other far-right figures in Europe including Nigel Farage of the UK’s Reform party and Italy’s right-wing Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

Trump says he’s not changed his mind on H-1B visas as debate rages within MAGA coalition

President-elect Donald Trump claimed this week that he has not changed his mind about the controversial H-1B visa program and that the U.S. needs “smart people” coming into the country, amid a furious intra-Republican debate on the visa program. “I didn’t change my mind. I’ve always felt we have to have the most competent people in our country, and we need competent people,” Trump said at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday evening. “We need smart people coming into our country. We need a lot of people coming in. We’re going to have jobs like we’ve never had before.” The H-1B visa program allows U.S. companies to hire foreign workers for specialty occupations and is overwhelmingly used by the tech industry. However, it has long been controversial for some conservatives, who say it is abused by tech companies to bring in cheap, predominantly Indian, labor to replace American workers. ERIC SCHMITT BLASTS ‘ABUSE’ OF H-1B VISA PROGRAM, SAYS AMERICANS ‘SHOULDN’T TRAIN THEIR FOREIGN REPLACEMENTS’ The program hit the headlines last week when Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, who have been tapped by Trump to lead the Department of Government Efficiency, argued for the importance of foreign workers for tech companies. “The reason I’m in America along with so many critical people who built SpaceX, Tesla, and hundreds of other companies that made America strong is because of H1B,” Musk said on X. That re-opened a rift between those on the right over the program and whether it is being used to attract the best talent or being used by companies to bring in cheaper labor, who are tied to their job by the visa. Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., said on Fox News Sunday that H1-B visas are being “abused.” “I think the abuses of the H-1B program have been evident, where you have sort of the sons and daughters of those factory workers who lost their jobs, got white collar jobs as accountants, and they’re, you know, training their replacements, the foreign workers who are undercutting their wages,” he said. TRUMP ADMINISTRATION MOVES TO CHANGE H-1B GUEST WORKER PROGRAM TO PRIORITIZE HIGHER-WAGE APPLICANTS Trump has previously shown skepticism about the H-1B visa program. During his 2016 presidential campaign, he promised to tackle the abuse of the program and pointed to allegations of companies forcing Americans to train their cheaper replacements. “The H-1B program is neither high-skilled nor immigration: these are temporary foreign workers, imported from abroad, for the explicit purpose of substituting for American workers at lower pay. I remain totally committed to eliminating rampant, widespread H-1B abuse and ending outrageous practices such as those that occurred at Disney in Florida when Americans were forced to train their foreign replacements,” he said in 2016. “I will end forever the use of the H-1B as a cheap labor program, and institute an absolute requirement to hire American workers first for every visa and immigration program. No exceptions,” he said. He also said that his companies use the H-1B program “and I shouldn’t be allowed to use it.” His administration immediately began looking into reforms to the H-1B visa program, and, in 2020, it proposed a sweeping rule that would prioritize the selection of higher wage applicants for the approximately 85,000 visas allocated annually. That rule would have required that registrations at the highest of four wage levels get to apply for the visa allocation first. Once those at the highest level have applied, then the process would turn to level III, and so on until the spaces are filled. “Put simply, because demand for H-1B visas has exceeded the annual supply for more than a decade, DHS prefers that cap-subject H-1B visas go to beneficiaries earning the highest wages relative to their [Standard Occupational Classification] codes and area(s) of intended employment,” the rule says. TRUMP SAYS HE IS A ‘BELIEVER’ IN H-1B VISAS FOR SKILLED WORKERS AS RIGHT SPARS ON IMMIGRATION: REPORT  The rule was not put into effect due to the Biden administration, which abandoned it and has since proposed a rule of its own. However, it was greeted favorably by immigration hawks. Other rules put forward during the Trump administration proposed narrowing the definition of “specialty occupation” and making changes to the way the “prevailing wage” is set in order to make sure U.S. wages are not undercut. The incoming Trump administration has not said specifically what it will do in terms of H-1B and whether it will resurrect its first-term efforts. However, Musk proposed “raising the minimum salary significantly and adding a yearly cost for maintaining the H1B, making it materially more expensive to hire from overseas than domestically. “ “I’ve been very clear that the program is broken and needs major reform,” he said on Saturday. At the same time, Trump told the New York Post that the program is “great.” “I’ve always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That’s why we have them,” Trump said. “I have many H-1B visas on my properties. I’ve been a believer in H-1B. I have used it many times. It’s a great program.” The Associated Press contributed to this report.

‘When they fail, Americans die’: Trump source blasts FBI, urges swift confirmation of Kash Patel as director

President-elect Donald Trump’s allies are excoriating the FBI for its initial characterization of the brutal car attack in New Orleans as not terror-related, before the nation’s top federal law enforcement agency backtracked and launched a terrorism investigation allegedly connected to ISIS.  “The FBI has a no-fail mission. There is no room for error. When they fail, Americans die. It’s a necessity that Kash Patel gets confirmed ASAP,” a source close to Trump told Fox News Digital on Thursday morning.  Early Wednesday morning, chaos broke out on Bourbon Street in New Orleans as New Year’s Eve revelers partied on the streets. The suspect, later identified as Shamsud-Din Jabbar, is accused of ramming a truck into the crowds on the beloved and famed party street, killing at least 15 and injuring dozens of others. Jabbar, who was armed with a Glock and a .308 rifle, was killed after opening fire on police.  As details filtered to the public on Wednesday morning, law enforcement officials, including the FBI, held a press conference where a special agent initially told the public that the attack was not related to terrorism.  NEW ORLEANS ATTACK: SEARCH CONTINUES FOR BOURBON STREET ‘PEOPLE OF INTEREST’ AS STATE AG VOWS DEATH PENALTY “We’ll be taking over the investigative lead for this event. This is not a terrorist event,” said New Orleans field office FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Alethea Duncan during the press conference.  WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT VICTIMS OF NEW ORLEANS TERRORIST ATTACK The mayor of New Orleans contradicted Duncan in the same press conference, declaring that the attack was connected to terrorism.  “Know that the city of New Orleans was impacted by a terrorist attack. It’s all still under investigation. You’ll hear more after me,” Mayor LaToya Cantrell, a Democrat who has served in the role since 2018, said at the presser.  The FBI released statements later Wednesday outlining that the attack was now under investigation as an act of terror, including reporting that an ISIS flag was found on the truck that rammed into the crowds.  “An ISIS flag was located in the vehicle, and the FBI is working to determine the subject’s potential associations and affiliations with terrorist organizations,” one FBI statement said.  SUSPECT IDENTIFIED AS FBI INVESTIGATES ACT OF TERRORISM AFTER BOURBON STREET ATTACK “The FBI is the lead investigative agency, and we are working with our partners to investigate this as an act of terrorism. We are aggressively running down all leads to identify any possible associates of the subject,” the statement added.  Conservative lawmakers decried the attack and mourned for the victims, while also directing their ire at the FBI for its alleged failures in handling the attack. Sen. Marsha Blackburn, a key Senate ally of Trump’s pick to lead the FBI, Kash Patel, slammed the FBI in a series of messages posted to X and again rallied support for Patel’s confirmation to serve as FBI director.  OFFICIALS POSTPONE SUGAR BOWL IN  THE WAKE OF APPARENT TERROR ATTACK ON BOURBON STREET “The tragic terror attack that killed innocent people in New Orleans is a stark reminder of the importance of strong leadership. America needs a fearless fighter like @Kash_Patel at the FBI,” Blackburn posted on Wednesday.  Blackburn also took issue with the FBI for allegedly reporting to the suspect’s home in Texas after the media had already staked out the property.  “The FBI didn’t show up to the NOLA suspect’s address until 1pm today. We were on scene before. No one came out of the home or answered the door,” New York Post reporter Jennie Taer posted to X on Wednesday.  Blackburn responded to the Post reporter, saying that the FBI had “failed” its mission as the nation’s top law enforcement agency.  “The fact that a reporter has better intel than the FBI tells us all we need to know. The FBI has failed its core mission,” Blackburn posted.  WHO IS KASH PATEL? TRUMP’S PICK TO LEAD THE FBI HAS LONG HISTORY VOWING TO BUST UP ‘DEEP STATE’ When approached for comment on the criticisms, the FBI directed Fox Digital to its three previous statements on the attack that described it as an act of terror but did not comment on the New Orleans’ agent saying Wednesday that the attack was not connected to terrorism.  “This morning, an individual drove a car into a crowd of people on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, killing a number of people and injuring dozens of others. The subject then engaged with local law enforcement and is now deceased. The FBI is the lead investigative agency, and we are working with our partners to investigate this as an act of terrorism,” the FBI said in one of its three statements provided to Fox Digital.  Jabbar was identified as a 42-year-old U.S. citizen from Texas. He was an Army veteran who served as a human resource specialist and information technology specialist from March 2007 until Jan. 2015, and he deployed to Afghanistan from Feb. 2009 to Jan. 2010. Trump slammed President Biden and his administration’s policies for the attack.  TRUMP FBI PICK KASH PATEL SHOULD TAKE THESE CONCRETE STEPS TO RESTORE TRUST: FORMER SPECIAL AGENT “With the Biden ‘Open Border’s Policy’ I said, many times during Rallies, and elsewhere, that Radical Islamic Terrorism, and other forms of violent crime, will become so bad in America that it will become hard to even imagine or believe. That time has come, only worse than ever imagined. Joe Biden is the WORST PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF AMERICA, A COMPLETE AND TOTAL DISASTER,” Trump posted to Truth Social.  Biden mourned the attack on Wednesday, highlighting that despite the violence, “our New Orleans will never, never, never be defeated.” “New Orleans is a place unlike any other place in the world,” the president said. “It’s a city full of charm and joy. So many people around the world love New Orleans because of its history, its culture, and above all, its people.” “So I know while this person committed a terrible assault on the city,
