    I am sure they are, they have before. I am looking for concrete changes before that Zohran might have pushed for. For example, are they still employing facial recognition drones at protests.

    Notice how I said is NYPD Counter-Terrorism unit still surveilling the protests, because they were always present at protests during the Adams’ tenure.

      Right, and I am saying they are definitely still going to do everything they were already doing, the leadership and priorities of the NYPD haven’t changed

          I imagine that if he attempted to stop them from doing any of the awful stuff they have been doing, the union would be screaming and the NYPD would be doing their quiet quitting strike shit again.

          Or they’d just merk Mamdani.

            I think his mayorship and its impact on NYPD will best be judged after some time has passed. He promised to cut down (or completely eradicate) NYPD overtime during primaries, so a significant reduction in overtime pay year-over-year is a bare minimum for him in my book.
