Mamdani Keeps Tisch as NYPD Commissioner

New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, a democratic socialist, has appointed current Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch to stay in her role, a decision that surprises many given his past criticisms of the NYPD. Tisch, a steady, moderate figure, has been praised by Mamdani for her efforts in fighting corruption and reducing crime. However, this choice has not been well-received by all progressives who hoped for a more significant shake-up at the top of the nations largest police force. DNN | The Daily News Now!
