NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch accepted Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s offer to stay on as top cop when he takes office, The Post has learned — a bridge-building move that comes despite their profound political differences.
The highly anticipated appointment fulfills Mamdani’s campaign promise to keep the respected 44-year-old police executive in the prominent role as the far-left candidate looks to ease concerns from the moderate wing of the Democratic Party and Big Apple bigwigs as he builds out his administration.

Because of the reason you mentioned, it seems likely that she’ll grow to regret this decision.
She is a member of the prominent Tisch family, which owns roughly one-third of Loews Corporation, and is one of its heirs.[4] Her relatives include Jonathan, Laurie, and Wilma Tisch. In 2024, Forbes estimated the family’s net worth at approximately US$10.1 billion.[11]

You’re probably right. Mamdani will need a series of scapegoats once NYC begins to fall apart. Looks like he’s got one for the crime problem.
By the way, the Post calls Tisch “respected”. Is that true among the NYPD rank and file, or is it just more Post hyperbole?
She has done such a wonderful job ,who else.
As her family is worth millions and is half owner of the NY Giants I expect she’ll make out okay. At least it will provide a counter point to Mamdani and his lefty antics.
I really don’t know much about her other than I strongly suspect she just got in bed with a venomous snake.
My friends OTJ say she is respected across the board. Maybe as much as Ray Kelly.
Pressing question: will she wear a hijab?
She’s not a cop and never was. She’s another Ivy League political hack with a welfare job as an appointee. She’s Jewish and a massive leftist. This will be “proof” that Mamdani isn’t a Jew hater.
Just leftist political gaslighting
Ray Kelly was an actual cop and a marine combat veteran. She was appointed because she’s female from a rich family, is Jewish, went to Harvard. She checks all the woke boxes. NYPD is a joke under her.
Is she already trained as a Social Worker ?
IOW, she has no idea what police really do? Chief Social Worker?
How anyone figures a Jew and a rabid Islamist will work together is beyond me.
She sounds like an Affirmative Action hire.
Its comical watching the news here in NY the past few days- they keep mentioning how she’s done a terrific job as “crime has plunged to all time lows the past ten months!!”
And I’m thinking- ten months ago??? Huh- didn’t something else politically relevant occur then???
This is good news. Prayers for NyC.
Absolutely not. Tisch has done incredibly well with regard to bringing crime down and restoring order - and is one of the few figures who wins equal praise from Conservatives and (sane) Liberals.

It might be a version of the old scorpion and frog fable. The frog tries to help the scorpion cross a river. The frog gets stung anyway. The scorpion just can’t help himself.
Of course,
The scorpion is Mamdani.
The frog is Tisch.
She’ll last about a week after he takes office. A Jew working for this blatant antisemite? Not a chance. I don’t know what lie he told her, but she should cut her losses now because no doubt he wants to replace her with someone like Linda Sarsour.
