6 days agoZohran Mamdani Just Inherited the NYPD Surveillance State
Mamdani surprised supporters by asking current Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch to stay on after his inauguration early next year. Tisch, a technocrat heir to a vast real estate fortune, clashes with Mamdani on several fronts, including policy (she believes New York State's bail reforms caused rising crime) and the geopolitics that inevitably make their way into New York City's streets. (Tisch's family are key figures in the Israel lobby; Mamdani is vociferously pro-Palestinian.)
