The Los Angeles Police Department has pulled its cops from a security detail at Kamala Harris’ Brentwood, California home after outrage that crime-fighting units were being diverted to guard the former vice president. A dozen Metro Division officers had been stationed outside Harris’ mansion after President Trump revoked her Secret Service protection last week, ending an extension through which had been quietly granted by President Biden. By Saturday, the backup was gone, sources told the Los Angeles Times. The short-lived detail drew fury inside the department after LAPD officers were pulled from crime suppression in the San Fernando Valley to...

Afterwards, the officers mocked the deaf man, telling him that he should have "just listened."

My dad is a retired NYPD cop, he's 85 now and not in the best of health with his heart. I can't show this to him because he will lose it, go completely nuts with rage. That this is being allowed in a city where 3000 people were murdered by Islamic vermin on 911 including NYPD police officers is absolutely outrageous and disgusting.

NYPD officers are warning of a mass exodus from the force if Zohran Mamdani is elected mayor — a move they say would throw New York City into a full-blown public safety disaster. Multiple officers tell me they’re already preparing for early retirement, and many others are considering walking off the job. “We’re barely holding the line as it is,” one veteran officer said. “If Zohran Mamdani wins, I’m gone — and so are a lot of others. We’re not sticking around to watch this place burn.” Officers are deeply alarmed by Zohran Mamdani’s agenda, which they say includes plans...

You’d think the job of a state attorney general is to hunt down bad guys, or at least help other law-enforcement nab them, but just try telling that to New York AG Letitia James — who’s now busy targeting good guys, i.e, local law-enforcement officials who (heaven forfend!) even think about helping the feds detain illegal immigrants. As The Post exclusively reported, James has demanded that Oswego County’s Sheriff’s Office hand over documents that may show cooperation with federal agencies such as ICE and Homeland Security. This follows her similar bullying of Nassau County’s Sheriff’s Office in the wake of...

State Attorney General Letitia James is conducting a misconduct probe of a New York local law enforcement agency helping the Trump administration crack down on illegal immigration, The Post has learned. The AG’s office asked Oswego County Sheriff Don Hilton for documents outlining any cooperation between local law enforcement officials and federal agencies, including Immigrations and Customs Enforcement, Customs and Border Protection and Homeland Security. A letter from the office asked Oswego County Sheriff Don Hilton to turn over any agreements between the office and any federal agency “concerning the enforcement of federal immigration law” – and it also asks...

Shocking police bodycam footage showed the fatal officer-involved shooting of an armed Afghan man during a traffic stop last month. Jamal Wali, 36, was pulled over by a Fairfax, Virginia, police officer for an expired inspection tag last month when things turned deadly. Wali informed the officer he was armed before going on an insane rant about how much he hates the United States.

She is definitely not ready for her close-up. A stylish woman in heels and a leather jacket used scissors to stab an amateur photographer who accidently captured an image of her as he took photos in the West Village, cops said. The sunglasses and dress-wearing brunette flew into a Britney Spears-level paparazzi rage on Varick Street near West Houston Street around 4:20 p.m. May 5 as the 36-year-old victim was out shooting images for social media. First, she slugged him on his shoulder — before flashing a pair of scissors and stabbing him in the back, police said. The woman...

Move over Karmelo Anthony, there’s a new accused killer darling on the scene.
