30yrs NYPD Beat Cop to 1st Dep Comm. then NYC Judge for 12 yrs. No use for extremists, conspiracists or demagogues. Facts matter.
Wake up fellow Dems. Maureen Dowd nails it in this column. As someone who spent his life dealing with Public Safety in NYC, I know firsthand how destructive the hard left can be. Trump is acting like a dictator in DC BUT Dem’s running the City opened the door.

Great NYT description of how cartels in Mexico manage to smuggle fentanyl in our Country. Not being done by migrants with backpacks but by cartel associates often assisted by corrupt border patrol agents. Maybe Trump should focus more on the CBP than the FBI.

This latest senseless murder in a “blue” city is a perfect example of why Trump won. I am as anti-Trump as anyone but as a lifelong LE professional it is clear to me that big city Dem’s are largely inept at maintaining public safety.

As per ACLU Attorney @chasestrangio.bsky.social “a penis is not a male body part. It’s just an unusual body part for a woman.” It’s this type of wacko thinking that feeds MAGA. The ACLU has better things to do than let extremist attorneys dictate legal strategy.

I asked the one high ranking policeman I saw on 5th Ave why there were so few police. He said “We did not expect anything like this. Don’t tell anyone but I’ve only got 44 officers out here — and it’s a great crowd, great event, no incidents.”
I have never seen anything like this in NYC. 5th Ave covered from 42nd St well to the 20s. Nobody prepared for this volume. Volunteers are holding the traffic on all the side streets. No police in sight. #handsoff
