Rule by Democrats means rule by criminals. The fresh new face of the party confirms it. During his run for mayor of NYC, Zohran Mamdani promised to effectively legalize minor crime. He appointed convicted armed robber Mysonne Linen to help direct crime policy as a member of his criminal legal system committee. Now this, from the New York Post:

Stanley Richards … will become the first formerly incarcerated person to lead the city’s Department of Correction as commissioner.

Richards served time for robbery, a suitable background for someone taking part in a Democrat administration.

Speaking of robbery, Richards’s salary will be $243,171. No worries, if taxpayers didn’t have more money than they need, they wouldn’t stay in New York.

Being a felon is now a résumé enhancer; it makes a candidate “historic.” Barks Mamdani:

I appointed Stanley Richards as Commissioner of @CorrectionNYC. Decades after he served time in our city’s jails, Commissioner Richards will now be the first formerly incarcerated person to lead them.

His job is not to keep criminals secured and behaving themselves but to “lead them.”
