MTA dropped a bag on barricade thinking that would help. They could've opened a mental institute

@SomeRandomBXGuy the left makes billions of dollars keeping people on the streets. A lot of Fraud is about to be cracked down on. First Minnesota, then California, then they coming down on NYC the amount of corruption in this country is ridiculous and extremely evil. It’s also tied to Israel HEAVY!

Does anyone know what really happened? Pushed or actually jumped? I ask because a month ago my brother was almost pushed to the tracks by a maniac.. also it’s 8:45 am blood and police tape on the floor under the train tracks no cops or first responders but the trains are “up and running” I hate how as New Yorkers we have gotten so used to this that we just go on with our days… I feel sick to my stomach
