He can reduce headcount just by being himself at work every day and not prioritizing recruiting.

And why do you think recruitment is down?? Because they don't like this mayor or that mayor? Really? You don't get it, do you? Everyone wants the same thing... good pay, benefits and quality of life. Working class priorities. The things Mamdani is fighting for. Those of you who are trying to say cops hate Mamdani are very wrong, and clearly part of the trolling and fear mongering against him. And yet, he still won.

Mamdani did an apology tour, but does any reasonable person believe his true feelings have suddenly changed?

There are almost 34,000 NYPD officers in NYC. That’s almost 10,000 more than all of the law enforcement officers in Virginia. Ask yourself, if your boss said that about you, would you look for another job?

Recruiting by the NYPD is up so far in 2025, but it’s just keeping up with retirements. At 34,000 officers the NYPD is still understaffed by 5,000 officers. If a Mamdani Administration accelerates retirements and resignations, while depressing the recruiting rate, public safety will suffer and crime in NYC will rise rapidly.

What do you think NYC will look like at the end of 2026?

“You have a person who is supposed to be running New York City that does not believe in law enforcement,” said Munro, a police officer for more than three decades. “What’s coming out of everyone’s mouth is, ‘We’re in trouble.'”

Ok thank you! Overblown hysteria. NYPD hiring/firings/resignations depands on sipply demand based on wages and the demographics of the workforce.

ICE is recruiting from police departments big and small across the country, not just NYPD.

I have little qualms of training with Israeli police force, which differs from IDF. If the NYPD need militarized training, they can get it from our military.
