Police “task forces” always seem to go bad. When will they (and we) ever learn.

I hate to tell you this, but everyone knows how bad the NYPD is. Those people will be “outraged” for a bit and then nothing will be done. Look at Rikers.

Yes, but the Governor's race isn't until next year. NYC Mayor is this year.

Sorry..I don't have a horse in either race
guess NYers are gonna have to get her off her ass to make her bounce Adams
good luck!
i see Cuomo wants to get in the mayor race
like a fucking bad penny

No problem. Yeah, Hochul had a chance earlier this year to fire Adams, NY State's constitution says she can, but it became politically complicated. She thought Cuomo would win even more easily in a special election, so decided to be passive, and leave it to the voters this fall to boot Adams. 😓

#ICYMI: One Community Response Team officer swerved into a motorcyclist, killing him. Another needlessly stopped a pedestrian, then shoved him into a car window. A third hit a man and then kicked his head.
