Eric Adams taps younger brother Bernard as a deputy police commissioner
Taking care of their own
This is the perfect storm of ineptitude meets stupidity if I ever seen it. NYC will reap what they sowed... and I'm talking big time!
Just to reiterate this is the new district attorney.
Mayor Eric Adams has tapped his younger brother to serve as a deputy NYPD commissioner, The Post has learned.
Bernard Adams, a 56-year-old retired NYPD sergeant, will oversee governmental affairs, he confirmed Friday. But the full scope of his responsibilities was not immediately clear.
Internal documents obtained by The Post show Bernard Adams listed as a deputy commissioner on the official NYPD roster.
A civilian post, deputy police commissioners typically make around $242,000, although it was not yet known what his salary would be in the department.
Bernard Adams’ LinkedIn profile lists his current job as assistant director for parking at Virginia Commonwealth University, where he’s been employed since 2011.
Neither City Hall nor the NYPD returned a request for comment.

News of the appointment of Bernard Adams, who responded to the Sept. 11 terror attacks while working as a cop at Brooklyn’s 88th Precinct, comes hours after Eric Adams appointed longtime friend and confidant Philip Banks as deputy mayor of public safety.
Stop here:
A little background on Philip Banks.
Banks’ brother, David, was previously named the new New York City schools
chancellor.
Eric Adams has recruited his brother Bernard to be a NYPD deputy police commissioner.
The move also comes a day after a shake-up of the police executive staff that forced out Internal Affairs boss Joseph Reznick and the head of the department’s employee relations, Robert Ganley. Both had been collecting a hefty pension as well as their lucrative taxpayer-funded salary.
Big Apple mayors have hired family members in the past. Michael Bloomberg onboarded his daughter, Emma, and sister, Marjorie Tavern, while mayor but they worked for free and did not carry such prestigious titles.
Former Mayor Bill de Blasio’s wife Chirlane McCray played an outsized role in his administration — most notably her role heading the failed $1.3 billion mental health initiative ThriveNYC — but was only officially acting as the city’s First Lady. She was barred from collecting a salary by city nepotism rules.
Bernard Adams, brother of New York Mayor Eric Adams. Check out his shirt. How is a safe future going to materialize after you just notified criminals your constituents go ahead and commit arm robbery because the most you're going to be charged with is petty larceny? This is even more crazy when you contemplate the Adams brothers are both ex-cops!

Harris describes Jan. 6 alongside Pearl Harbor, 9/11 as dates that 'echo throughout history'
(I'm surprised she didn't say a date that will live in infamy. Talk about milking this for everything they can get!!!)
Vice president says, 'I wonder, how will Jan. 6 be remembered in the years ahead?'
Vice President Kamala Harris named Jan. 6, 2021, as a date that will 'echo throughout history.'
One year after the riot of Jan. 6, 2021, Vice President Kamala Harris stated that the date will live on in the country's memory, likening it to the dates of the Pearl Harbor attack and the 9/11 terror attacks.
In an address delivered as part of a commemoration of the anniversary of the protest in which demonstrators entered the Capitol building, interrupting the counting of electoral votes, Harris included Jan. 6 as one of three dark days in American history.
(To Democrats voting rights and cheating are one and the same)
"Certain dates echo throughout history," Harris said. "Including dates that instantly remind all who have lived them where they were and what they were doing when our democracy came under assault. Dates that occupy not only a place on our calendar but a place in our collective memory. Dec. 7, 1941, Sept. 11, 2001, and Jan. 6, 2021."
Harris, who was vice president-elect and a sitting senator at the time, said Thursday that the rioters that day sought to attack "the institutions, the values, the ideals that generations of Americans have marched, picketed, and shed blood to establish and defend."
"On Jan. 6 we all saw what our nation would look like if the forces who seek to dismantle our democracy are successful: the lawlessness, the violence, the chaos," she continued.
Harris stated that the events of January 6 reflect both the "fragility" and "strength" of American democracy, as the attack on the Capitol and the challenge to the election ultimately failed. She praised the lawmakers from both parties who returned afterwards to finish the vote counting for their "resolve" and "loyalty."
The vice president then questioned whether Jan. 6, 2021 will some day be viewed as the beginning of the end of American democracy, before stressing the need for Congress to pass new voting legislation.
"I wonder, how will Jan. 6 will be remembered in the years ahead? Will it be remembered as a moment that accelerated the unraveling of the oldest, greatest democracy in the world, or a moment when we decided to secure and strengthen our democracy for generations to come?" Harris asked.
"The American spirit is being tested," she added. "The answer to whether we will meet that test resides where it always has resided in our country: with you."

Anyone remember the storm of protesters at the Kavanagh hearing?
Yes, there were some people arrested. But do you remember the FBI, chomping on the bit in a fever pitch, relentlessly hunting these people down?
Either do I.
Oh... and what about Seattle and Portland?

Antonio Brown's pregame 'warm-up'
A perfect match. A lunatic and a toilet seat licker.
What more could you ask for?
Something tells me we haven't heard the last from Antonio Brown. The next time we hear something I fear it's gonna be far more serious than this!
