NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch tells Pam Bondi cops have crime in NYC under control – and that National Guard isn't needed: sources
2025-08-26
[NYP] NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch told US Attorney General Pam Bondi on Monday that the city’s police force has crime under control and doesn’t need the National Guard, law-enforcement sources said.

The pair met for about 30 minutes behind closed doors at One Police Plaza in Manhattan, with the tête-à-tête occurring as President Trump has taken a keen interest in boosting public safety in the city — including by potentially deploying additional boots on the ground in the five boroughs.

The president has already sent armed National Guard troops to crime-riddled Washington, DC.

But the Big Apple’s top cop politely pointed out to Bondi that city crime is at record lows, sources told The Post.

#6  Crime rate in NYCity isn't as high as many other places in the US (including other cities in NYState, e.g. Buffalo, Syracuse, Rochester). Obviously lowering them would be good but I think it will take a lot of National Guard to make a difference there.


Having said that, Jessica Tisch is pretty popular in NYCity and compared to other commissioners is doing a good job.

#3  /\ So Democrats became a utopian elite cadre of the very wealthy who would patronize and take care of the subsidized poor, both as psychological penance to assuage their guilt over their own newfound global riches and to solidify poorer voters with expansionary entitlements.

Much truth found in the above para.

#1  There is something deeply suspicious going on. Why would any city official oppose help fighting street crime?
