    What the heck is going on with this? "According to The New York Times, the SBA’s headquarters were searched as part of an investigation by the public corruption unit in the Manhattan U.S. Attorney’s Office and the FBI." "The agents also searched the Port Washington home of the union's controversial president, Ed Mullins, the FBI added."

  2. The FBI investigating another law enforcement entity for corruption.

    What a joke that is. All of the current and past senior leadership in the FBI should be in prison along with a fair number of the agents down in the ranks. Ditto for the DOJ. Probably I will get banned from Facebook and Twitter for that and several other reasons. It is all the rage these days. I will have to create accounts so that I can play the game. I BANNED THEM LONG AGO.

    I do find it interesting that the union president lives in Port Washington. Even back when I was growing up in Long Island decades ago -- Manhasset, Port Washington, Roslyn, and nearby towns were for the wealthy... and nobody who was a New York City police officer could afford a house there on a sergeant's salary --- the only way they could afford those type of digs is if they were corrupt and many union officials were (and still are).

  8. “How can the NYPD protect the city of NY from rioting anarchist when the Mayors object throwing daughter is one of them. Now we know why he is forbidding Mounted units to be mobilized and keeping the NYPD from doing their jobs,” the SBA said in a tweet, according to the New York Post.

    Mullins is now facing an internal NYPD trial on misconduct charges related to the tweet and other social media posts—including one tweet where he called the city health commissioner a “bitch” with “blood on her hands” after a standoff over N95 face masks.
