If New York isn't safe, nothing else matters. The only prosecutor running for New York Attorney General.
Another stabbing with a machete. This time between two homeless men in Saratoga Springs.
In NY, since 2019: Crime is up 26%. Homelessness is up 38%.
We need to use the resources of the Attorney General’s office to actually tackle these issues and end this disorder.

Today, a young man in his 30s was stabbed on the 4 train near Wall St.
These attacks in mass transit must stop.
As Attorney General, I will prosecute the transit crimes that DAs are refusing to prosecute, and prevent criminals and the mentally ill from getting into mass https://t.co/tLyBIFMk0M

Car theft is out of control in New York. Since 2019, it’s:
- Doubled statewide.
- Tripled in NYC and Buffalo.
- Quadrupled in Rochester.
New Yorkers are paying the price—literally—with skyrocketing insurance costs.
We need an Attorney General who will actually prosecute crime https://t.co/o0U8S7V0qr
Meanwhile, you worked to make housing less affordable.
For two years, you used the resources of the AG’s office to defend the All Electric Act which drives up energy bills and makes housing more expensive to build. https://t.co/bSRiXlF6zV
It's no secret that we are facing a housing affordability crisis. Yet, corporate landlords are still adding hidden junk fees, driving up prices further.
I'm urging the @FTC to address this deceptive pricing and to set clear standards to protect New Yorkers' time and money.
A cop makes a split-second decision to protect lives—and gets prosecuted.
Meanwhile, repeat offenders keep getting chances.
That’s the reality in New York today—and it’s wrong.
I was glad to call it out today. ⬇️
https://t.co/VtLeTgFDP8
A career criminal can victimize New Yorkers over and over—and we hear nothing.
But a cop makes a split-second decision to protect lives? The full weight of the system comes down on him.
That’s the reality under Letitia James. She spends more time targeting cops than criminals. https://t.co/nzFndvPtW1
It has now been made public that the criminal who stabbed three innocent New Yorkers at Grand Central yesterday morning was a repeat offender who had 13 prior arrests, including one for menacing with a sharp object.
People like this shouldn’t be allowed into the subway system
Another violent attack in the subways this morning — this time at Grand Central. Three innocent New Yorkers stabbed.
This is outrageous and it should never happen in New York.
New Yorkers rely on mass transit every day. They deserve to be safe.
Instead, lax prosecution https://t.co/NeJ1D7anaJ
