The NYPD plans to hire 580 additional uniformed officers by the end of the year, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said Monday, revealing an unexpected staffing increase, given Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s vow to keep police headcount flat.
Tisch said during a City Council budget hearing that the additional hires would bring the NYPD to 35,555 uniformed officers by the end of the year.
That would be a slightly larger police force than under Mayor Eric Adams, when the number of officers hovered around 35,000 at its peak, according to city budget documents and NYPD press releases.
You’re literally asking questions that are directly answered in the article you clearly didn’t read. What the actual fuck are you even talking about? It’s not a “hit piece” just because it’s negative coverage of a politician you like.
You literally just free-associated some absolute BS excuses without even reading the article first. You’re the one who needs to be better.
Edit: Also, I can’t believe I have to point this out: if you have lingering questions the article doesn’t answer (not that we can say because you didn’t read it), the answer isn’t to then “draw conclusions”; it’s to do additional research to answer them. Jesus christ.
