Jessica Tisch, the New York City police commissioner who has overseen a drop in violent crime under outgoing Mayor Eric Adams, has agreed to remain in the post under newly elected Zohran Mamdani, who recently apologized for his past criticisms of the department.

New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani says the city's current police commissioner, Jessica Tisch, has agreed to remain in the post, a major coup for the incoming mayor as he moves to ease concerns over his past criticism of the department.

The incoming democratic socialist mayor will retain the popular police commissioner from the Adams administration.

Her statement that she would remain in her post eased concerns of business leaders that her departure would upend the city’s efforts to drive down crime.

Incoming First Deputy Mayor Dean Fuleihan believes "affordability" is the new administration's greatest challenge, while delivering on Zohran Mamdani's campaign promises.

Mayor Eric Adams painted an alarming picture of his city under his successor, Zohran Mamdani, saying, “If I were a Jewish New Yorker, I’d be concerned about my children.”

Herzog meets visiting politician in Jerusalem, expresses concern over city's future with Mamdani set to take office; at the Western Wall, Adams declares: 'I am your brother'
