Tired of Fare Hikes and Government Waste? New York Deserves Better. Every year, New Yorkers pay more for transit while getting less in return. Another MTA fare hike is coming — and still, we see crews standing around, projects years behind schedule, and billions lost to mismanagement. It’s not just the MTA — it’s government at every level. From entry‑level workers to the Governor’s office, no one should be above accountability — including me. That’s why we’re launching the Watchdog New York Whistleblower Program: • See waste or abuse? Document it. • Photos, videos, location, and time — the more detail, the better. • Help us build an evidence-backed case for reform that ends corruption and restores trust. Our plan to fix the MTA goes further — distance-based fares, full audits, and real rider representation so short trips cost less, waste is eliminated, and the system finally works for New Yorkers, not insiders.

Together, we’ll hold everyone — even the Governor — accountable. #JSA2026 #NYGovernor #MTA #Whistleblower #Accountability #FairFares #TransitReform

Why Elise Stefanik Can’t Win New York in 2026 — And Why JSA2026 Is the Alternative Conservatives Deserve By Jason S. Arnold, Candidate for Governor of New York (JSA2026) 📞 (516) 586-0660 | 🌐 jsa2026.com | 💬 BETTR.community ⸻ Elise Stefanik is a rising star in national Republican politics — but when it comes to winning the 2026 governor’s race in New York, she’s not the candidate who can get it done. I say this with respect for everything she’s accomplished in Congress. But New York is not Washington, and voters here need a candidate who understands this state from the ground up — not from the top down. That’s why I’m running. My name is Jason S. Arnold, founder of BETTR, host of TurnNYRed.us, and candidate for Governor of New York in 2026 under the JSA2026 campaign. ⸻ 📉 The Math Doesn’t Add Up for Elise Stefanik Stefanik’s supporters say she can flip New York red. The numbers disagree: • New York hasn’t elected a Republican governor since George Pataki in 2002. • Elise Stefanik’s district (NY-21) represents under 2% of the state’s population. • Her statewide favorability among independents is below 30% according to recent Siena and Quinnipiac polling. • Downstate counties (NYC, Long Island, Westchester) account for 70%+ of the total vote — areas where she has no organizational base. Even in the red wave year of 2022, Republicans lost by nearly 350,000 votes statewide, despite strong turnout. We cannot run the same kind of candidate and expect different results. ⸻ 🎭 The Disconnect: Harvard Polishing vs. New York Grit Elise Stefanik went to Harvard, launched her career in the Bush White House, and has been in politics since her 20s. Again, no shame in that. But let’s be honest: You don’t go to Harvard today to become wise — you go to become managed. Stefanik talks about fighting for working-class New Yorkers, but she’s never lived in their neighborhoods. She’s never waited on line at the rent office. She’s never had to navigate broken public housing, underfunded schools, or family court hell. ⸻ 🏙️ Where I’ve Lived — The Real New York Since arriving in New York in 2002, I’ve lived in: • Manhattan: Chelsea, Times Square, Lower East Side, Spanish Harlem, Washington Heights • The Bronx: Hoe Avenue • Brooklyn: Bushwick, Sunset Park, Brooklyn Heights • Queens: Bellerose • Long Island: Franklin Square and Bethpage • Upstate: Rochester (Ninth Ward, Ridgeway, Garfield & Chilay) That’s over 20 years across every region of New York — living, working, surviving, and building. Not just polling and posting. “When you walk into a room and someone’s wearing too much perfume, you smell it — even if nobody else does. That’s me in New York. I see the things others have gone nose-blind to.” ⸻ ❌ Stefanik’s Record: Talking Points vs. Results Stefanik often campaigns as a fiscal conservative and civil libertarian, but her record doesn’t always match: • ✅ Voted for expanded FISA surveillance powers • ✅ Supported $100B+ in Ukraine aid while New York cities struggle • ✅ Backed massive COVID spending with no accountability • ❌ Never introduced a bill to fix NY schools • ❌ No action on NY property tax relief • ❌ No real plan to protect New Yorkers from federal mandates (CBDCs, digital IDs, lockdowns) ⸻ ✅ What I Stand For – The JSA2026 Platform I’m not backed by PACs. I’m backed by the people. My campaign policies include: • SEZ & LEZ education reform zones – putting parents back in charge • End property taxes on fully paid-off homes • New York Liberty & Survival Act – banning CBDCs, protecting food and water access, restoring local economic freedom • Universal emergency care access – no one denied help, no Medicaid trap • Family court reform – end corruption, restore balance • State anti-censorship shield law – protect speech in New York even if D.C. won’t These aren’t slogans — they’re legislative blueprints. ⸻ 🗳️ 2026 Is Too Important for a Safe Bet Elise Stefanik will be painted as a D.C. career politician no matter how much red she wears on stage. We’ve seen this movie before — and it ends in a blowout loss. JSA2026 offers something else: • Raw truth • Real-world experience • A fighter’s heart • A builder’s vision We can’t run someone who’s polling well inside party circles but collapsing statewide. We need a candidate who grew through the struggle — not someone who read about it in talking points. ⸻ 💬 Final Word I love New York. I’ve lived it. I’ve nearly died in it. And I’ve come back to fight for it. “I’m not a good candidate — I’m the right one.” – Jason S. Arnold, JSA2026 ⸻ 📞 Contact the campaign: (516) 586-0660 🌐 Website: https://jsa2026.com 💬 Community: https://bettr.community 📢 Follow hashtag: #JSA2026 #TurnNYRed #BETTR #NYGovernor2026 ⸻ 🔑 Keywords (for indexing) • Elise Stefanik 2026 • Can Stefanik win New York? • Jason S.

💰 Here’s How Much Trump’s Pardons and Commutations Have Cost the Federal Government A new report claims that Donald Trump’s pardons and commutations may have cost the federal government millions in lost fines, legal appeals, and supervision costs. Critics argue that many of the recipients were political allies or celebrity offenders, not wrongfully convicted citizens. But here’s the truth they leave out: 🔹 The cost of a pardon isn’t the problem. 🔹 The real waste is the DOJ's budget being weaponized against political enemies while cartel traffickers walk free. 🔹 Meanwhile, January 6 defendants rot in pretrial cells while fentanyl dealers cut plea deals. If we’re talking dollars, let’s audit DOJ grants, FBI slush funds, and fake domestic terror task forces before crying over paperwork costs for clemency. 🔗 Source: https://www.forbes.com/sites/zacheverson/2021/01/20/heres-how-much-trumps-pardons-and-commutations-have-cost-the-federal-government/ (Note: You may sub in newer coverage if available) #TrumpPardons #J6Truth #JusticeReform #DOJCorruption #BETTRNewswire #PoliticalPrisoners #FederalWaste

Everything’s Impossible… Until Someone Does It. They said it was impossible to fly—until the Wright brothers did. Impossible to light the world with a switch—until Edison did. Impossible to walk on the moon—until Neil Armstrong did. Impossible to carry the world in your pocket—until smartphones changed everything. And they’ll say it’s impossible to fix New York. To clean our streets. To end the corruption. To give power back to the people. To make government work for you again. But history doesn’t favor the doubters. It rewards the doers. I’m not a good candidate by the old rules—because I’m not here to play by them. I’m the right candidate because I know the system is broken. And I’m not asking for permission to fix it. We’re going to do the impossible. Together. — Jason S.

🕵️‍♂️ Corrupt Venezuelan Officials ‘Facilitated’ Tren de Aragua Gang’s Reign of Terror in the U.S. A bombshell investigation reveals that corrupt Venezuelan officials enabled the violent Tren de Aragua gang to expand operations into the United States. The transnational criminal network, known for extortion, human trafficking, and brutal violence, has been linked to rising crime in multiple U.S. cities. Officials reportedly looked the other way—or even helped facilitate illegal crossings—in exchange for profit. #TrenDeAragua #VenezuelanCorruption #TransnationalCrime #BorderSecurity #BETTRNews https://nypost.com/2025/05/05/us-news/corrupt-venezuelan-officials-facilitated-tren-de-aragua-gangs-reign-of-terror-in-us/

🚆 MTA: Service Restored on West Hempstead LIRR Branch After Train Fire Service is back on the West Hempstead branch of the LIRR — but the real fire is the one Albany keeps fueling with corruption, neglect, and bloated transit budgets. Another day, another MTA failure patched over with zero accountability. While New Yorkers deal with delays, breakdowns, and safety risks, the political class keeps raising tolls and cashing checks. We deserve a transit system that works, not one that burns through billions and delivers chaos. 🔗 https://longisland.news12.com/train-catches-fire-near-backyards-in-malverne-shuts-down-part-of-the-west-hempstead-lirr-branch?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAR71u66eYAWK_ffoCJ9pWg199loAfCS36Dw7dK6Qu56vtipClSEb6fOoU1ULsw_aem_krD5d74klrn24XmogWLxoQ #MTAFail #FixNewYork #LIRR #TransitCorruption #CommonwealthBudget #JSA2026 #EndTheGrift #BuiltByStruggle #BETTRNews
