Kathy Hochul has been a complete failure for the state of New York. She has been in charge of an almost unheard-of drop in quality of life, strict COVID rules, and a terrible loss of population and tax income. Also, there was a rise in crime.
A lot of the time, that rise in crime is a direct result of how the state punishes thieves. In a shockingly high number of those cases, the crime could have been easily stopped if New York had smart leaders and sensible rules. Normal and smart people have never used those words to describe Kathy Hochul, though. And it is possible that some people at the funeral for a dead NYPD cop agreed.

Hochul went to the wake for Jonathan Diller on Friday. Diller was shot and killed during a normal traffic stop in Queens, leaving behind a wife and kid who is almost 1 year old. Guy Rivera, the person who is thought to have killed the person, has been caught 21 times. A message from the NYPD union to its members before the funeral said that it was sad that the same leaders who let crooks out of jail want to use the wake for picture shoots.
"Their presence is more than a distraction," John Vincent, president of the NYPD Sergeants Benevolent Association, wrote in a letter. "It is a stain on the legacy of a true hero who made the ultimate sacrifice, as well as the scores of dedicated and committed public servants who will carry on his mission despite their constant criticism, cynicism, negativity, and frivolous accusations."
But it is clear that Kathy Hochul did not get the word.
Hochul allegedly left the wake after only a few minutes. People there recorded a heated argument with one of the guests, and in the background, they could hear cheering.
What did Hochul really think would happen? That the cops and families who lost a loved one would welcome her because law enforcement and punishments for thieves are not strict enough, which are policies she supports?
A person at the scene told the New York Post that Hochul was scolded by Diller's widow. "It looked like she was telling [Hochul] off," the source said of the talk. "It didn’t look like the widow had a kind word to say."
There will always be people like Hochul who will not change, even if her actions hurt people or if repeat offenders kill a lot of people. They will never change their ideas, views, or their desire to put the blame for their mistakes on others.
