New York Governor Kathy Hochul has deployed nearly ONE THOUSAND National Guard troops for law enforcement purposes, sparking comparisons to Tom Cotton's past proposal. Some criticize the New York Times staff for not reacting as strongly to Hochul's decision compared to Cotton's proposal.
Silence from NYT staff over Hochul’s order to send the National Guard in shows there is one thing more important than fighting racism: Fealty to the Democratic Party
Four year ago, @nytimes staffers revolted over @TomCottonAR's "Send in the troops" op-ed. @GovKathyHochul is now sending in the troops. But there will be little outcry, because she's a Democrat. https://t.co/RiuOBCas9k
Tom Cotton proposed deploying the National Guard to quell some of the most destructive riots in American history. Hochul is doing it for quotidian law enforcement purposes. Crickets from New York Times staffers. https://t.co/ieaSTDPnDP
So Kathy Hochul is sending in the National Guard. Hey remember when Tom Cotton wanted to do that? WIll the staff of the New York Times now feel unsafe and cry and have a 2,000 person meeting in the hallway and then fire anyone who has a free thought?
Tom Cotton called for the deployment of the National Guard in a NYT op ed and it got James Bennett fired. Now New York Governor Kathy Hochul is doing it, for no apparent reason, and I guess it's fine. https://t.co/fVMx5NLWEK
