Cuomo: My option is to displace the mayor of NYC and bring in the National Guard

[Counselor706]

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) revealed Tuesday that New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio (D) refused assistance from the state’s National Guard to thwart widespread looting as protests and riots rage over the death of George Floyd.

In his daily press briefing, Cuomo issued stinging criticism of De Blasio and the New York Police Department, saying Monday evening’s failed attempt to quell violence unrest was “inexcusable.”

“My option is to displace the mayor of New York City and bring in the National Guard as the governor in an emergency and basically you would have to take over the mayor’s job,” Cuomo then explained. “I don’t think we’re at the point,” he said, before adding the move would yield a “chaotic situation” that “wouldn’t make any sense."

I'm increasingly confused about what's going on.

I see walls of bricks being dropped by outside organizers,
I hear criticisms of Police being too soft on vandals, lest they're accused of racism

but then I keep seeing videos like this: Police trying to disperse peaceful protesters:

Is their main agenda to stop the vandals
or to stop the popular uprising?

Now this, THIS, is comedy gold.

Unfortunately, the levity is at the price of business owners and property owners of all creeds, ethnicities, and genders.

What you're HEARING is that those in power aren't doing their jobs because they're sympathetic to those who commit crimes.

What you're SEEING are select video clips designed to project a specific political narrative that isn't tracking reality.

Anitfa has finally achieved what they've been working so hard for. They've incited the mob to kill.
