In case it's not obvious, this is a fishy source. Per Wikipedia's own guidelines:

There is consensus the New York Post is generally unreliable for factual reporting, especially with regard to politics, particularly New York City politics. A tabloid newspaper, editors criticise its lack of concern for fact-checking or corrections, including examples of outright fabrication. Editors consider the New York Post more reliable before it changed ownership in 1976, and particularly unreliable for coverage involving the New York City Police Department. A 2024 RfC concluded that the New York Post is marginally reliable for entertainment coverage; see below. This consensus does not apply to the broadsheet publication of the same name, that existed from 1801–1942.

It is original reporting, at least.

I mean, I’d put money on it being clickbait (for money) instead of actual govt propaganda. It fits the NY Post.
