Mayor-elect Mamdani to disband the NYPD Strategic Response Group
On episode 42 of the Executive Perspective, Ron and Rob are joined by retired NYPD Deputy Inspector Tony Raganella, a Disorder Control Specialist, to discuss the implications of Mayor-elect Mamdani’s plan to disband the NYPD Strategic Response Group. They explore how the city will respond to the rising demonstrations, particularly the anti-ICE protests. Mayor-elect Mamdani has taken the initiative of “schooling” illegal migrants on how to protect themselves from ICE and has vowed to fight for the rights of our “immigrant brothers and sisters.” However, it’s crucial to recognize that he should also fight for the rights of all New Yorkers, including the members of HIS NYPD.
