Family of Brooklyn man shot dead by police after road rage incident outraged as NYPD moves to drop charges against officer responsible | amNewYork The family of an unharmed Brooklyn man shot and killed by police during a road rage incident in 2016 fumed on Monday after the NYPD moved to dismiss charges

#DelrawnSmall's family is outraged: “Commissioner Tisch can continue the NYPD’s corrupt culture of impunity, or she can finally do what should’ve happened in 2016: #FireWayneIsaacs. No more delays. No more legal games. No more protection for killer cops."

The NYPD’s Watchdog Whitewashed More Than 10,000 Misconduct Allegations in Public Data, New Evidence Shows Allegations of lying, sexual misconduct, bigoted statements, and racist policing were among those quietly reclassified by the Civilian Complaint Review Board.

New data shows that the CCRB retroactively doctored public data for more than 10,000 misconduct allegations against NYPD officers.

Wayne Isaacs & his police union lawyers have been playing games to avoid accountability for almost a DECADE. The truth is #DelrawnSmall was unarmed when he was gunned down in front of his 4-month-old baby & teenage stepdaughter - yet Isaacs STILL hasn’t even faced a disciplinary trial.

Protect NYC from Trump Please take action!

The New York City Council has a number of bills awaiting passage that respond to threats from the Trump administration - like protecting our right to protest, strengthening protections for immigrants, banning invasive biometric tech, and more.

Tell your Councilmember they must pass these bills now:

New York Approves Trump-Backed Gas Pipeline The Northeast Supply Enhancement pipeline had been rejected by environmental regulators three times but was revived this spring after talks between Hochul…

Donald Trump may be committed to destroying the environment, but that doesn't mean New York should acquiesce.

The thrice-rejected Williams NESE pipeline will now derail our efforts to fight climate change, protect our harbors, and improve public health.

Commish Tisch knew this horrifying ICE raid was coming and did NOTHING to protect New Yorkers - she even deployed riot cops to protect ICE at 26 Fed Plaza instead. It's likely that these kinds of attacks & abductions will increase in the coming months -- is Tisch really who we want in power?

The Political Fight for Southern Brooklyn’s Russian-Speakers Little Russia’s residents are impacted by the affordability crisis like everyone else, but they are also deeply wary of socialism.

"Canvassing for a socialist in hostile “Trump territory” is no easy task. But we believe that Zohran’s style of politics can resonate across the city, including in the often forgotten neighborhoods of southern Brooklyn."

It shouldn’t take nearly a DECADE to fire a killer cop – officer Wayne Isaacs should’ve been fired when he killed unarmed #DelrawnSmall in front of his baby years ago. Isaacs’ discipline trial is FINALLY scheduled for 11/19. We need YOU to pack the court in support of Delrawn’s family!
