Episode 55: This NYPD Cop Is Singlehandedly Defunding The Police

Another episode, another week of turbulence for the Eric Adams administration and his NYPD top cops. Thomas Donlon we hardly knew ya! We discuss the freshly appointed NYPD commissioner already resigning after only a few weeks on the job and an FBI raid on his apartment. Then we dig into the NY Post story revealing Deputy Commissioner of Operations Kaz Daughtry pocketing almost $150k in overtime despite department rules barring management level positions from collecting it.

We also discuss the predictable backlash Ta-Nehisi Coates continues to receive after the release of his book “The Message” and his subsequent publicity tour in which he has been critical of the government of Israel.

We touch on some fun topics too including a ridiculous video from a local police department unveiling their new cyber truck. Tune in!
