@NYPDnews
We are aware of this video and it is under investigation by our Brooklyn South Investigation Unit.
Police officers must remain apolitical.

NYPD officers in Flatbush were allegedly saying Trump 2020 over and over again on their patrol cars speaker tonight.
They stopped when someone started filming but couldnt resist one more in violation of the NYPDs policy against endorsing candidates on duty.

Get rid of the bigots, bullies, racists, white supremacists. Across the board. Tear down the blue wall they run to hide behind when they get caught.
Everything will go a lot smoother for them AND us.

pass the supreme court that limit the police excesses, however. People have to realize how sweeping, and destructive, her presence on the court will be.

everytime they strike something down just tweak and pass again.
i think a democratic admin should pass laws with limited scope so they cant be struck down enmasse.
imagine a new healthcare bill made up of 25 component laws.
