Incoming NYPD Commissioner Complies With Sharpton's 'Demand' For Sit-Down

Incoming NYPD Commissioner Dermot Shea went to Reverend Al Sharpton’s anti-police National Action Network headquarters.

Manhattan, NY – Incoming New York Police Department (NYPD) Commissioner Dermot Shea went to Reverend Al Sharpton’s anti-police National Action Network (NAN) headquarters to listen to his complaints about the city’s police force last week.

The hourlong sit-down also included attorneys and several clergy members, WABC reported.

"Great opportunity, great discussion here today," Commissioner Shea told reporters after the meeting.

“I think a very productive discussion, areas of concern, and really, a first step in having a collaborative relationship moving forward, making sure that the police department is the police department for all," he said.

The soon-to-be commissioner said that the meeting with Sharpton was the “first step” in establishing a “collaborative relationship,” according to a NAN press release.

"It's very fitting that I'm here, I think, because I am the police commissioner to-be, of not the police department but of all New York, of 8.5 million New Yorkers,” he told reporters, according to WABC.

The NAN said that Sharpton “demanded an immediate meeting with Shea” following the announcement of his appointment as the police commissioner.

Sharpton said he plans to continue giving Commissioner Shea his input on a regular basis in the future.

"We agreed on some issues. We disagreed on others. And we said we are going to disagree, but we are going to dialogue,” he said, according to the NAN. “We are not going to tell you what you want to hear, we are going to tell you what you need to hear.”

Despite his sit-down with the incoming police commissioner, Sharpton said he still plans to speak with New York Mayor Bill de Blasio to find out why he didn’t appoint First Deputy Commissioner Ben Tucker as the agency’s next top cop.

Sharpton said he was surprised to learn that the deputy commissioner, who is black, wasn’t promoted.

“First and foremost, we expressed to the soon-to-be commissioner that we were very concerned and surprised that Ben Tucker had been overlooked to be commissioner,” Sharpton told reporters, according to the New York Daily News. “Because of him [Shea] being chosen at a time when we felt Mr. Tucker had been overlooked for the second or third time, he comes with a sort of awkwardness that he inherits.”

New York Civil Liberties Union Executive Director Donna Lieberman said she believes Commissioner Shea understands that the black community does not trust law enforcement.

“This is a symbolic statement by the new commissioner of concern about policing about the black community and that’s an important statement,” Lieberman told the New York Daily News. “We know he is both inheriting low crime rates but low community trust, and I appreciate that he recognizes that as a problem.”

The incoming police commissioner’s term will begin on Dec. 1, according to WABC.

I wonder if Rev. Al will have time to help administer New Jersey's Reparations project.
He's a busy guy.

Al Sharpton’s 2004 presidential campaign still owes more than $900K

Fifteen year’s later, the check is still in the mail.

The Rev. Al Sharpton’s failed 2004 presidential campaign still owes more than $900,000. The unpaid debt of his committee, “Sharpton 2004,” has remained unchanged for a decade, according to its most recent FEC filing in March 2019.

The campaign has not filed any of its required disclosure forms since then, earning multiple letters of rebuke from the feds. “If committees are unable to pay debts, they can file a debt-settlement plan with the FEC . . . committees could not just decide not to pay,” a spokesman from the Federal Election Commission told The Post.

The holy man’s campaign is in the hole, despite him personally earning more money than ever. In addition to a lucrative hosting gig on MSNBC, Sharpton raked in cash helming his influential nonprofit National Action Network. In 2018, he pocketed more than a million dollars from the charity.

Since the debt is owed by the campaign committee, and not Sharpton directly, the rev is not on the hook for the cash. Rather his campaign treasurer, Andrew Rivera, is the one legally responsible for it.

Rivera did not respond to multiple requests for comment from The Post.

“It does reflect poorly on the people at the helm. I have worked for candidates who I know have taken great pains to make sure staff and consultants are taken care of,” Jerri Ann Henry, a consultant who had worked around campaigns and PACs for 15 years, told The Post. “Frankly, almost a million dollars, that’s a lot of money. Today’s campaigns spend at that level all the time, but that is very significant coming all the way back in 2004.”

Sharpton told The Post he was good for the money.

“I have asked Andrew Rivera, the finance chair of my 2004 campaign, to set up a meeting with the Federal Election Commission so that I can resolve any campaign debts related to Sharpton 2004,” he said. “I am willing to work out a settlement for all claims with my own money to the degree that I’m allowed and will raise money directly . . . Even if I am not legally liable for it, I am certainly morally responsible.”

The arrears have not hurt Sharpton’s standing with fellow Democrats, who still regularly seek his favor.

He certainly wasn’t coveting his neighbor’s paycheck in 2017, when his NAN salary came to $244,661, or the year before, when he was paid $250,000 plus a $437,555 bonus. NAN justified the bonus at the time saying it was designed to make up for a lack of full compensation, including no retirement or benefits packages over the years.

That caught my eye....
There is probably a reason no benefit package or retirement. Generally all employees need to be included in a benefit plan and/or retirement plan. This is a way to short change others that work for the organization.

Bet the pay is not so good for the other workers.....

According to Michael Franzese one time made man in the Colombo mob (big) Al has had ties to the mob in the past. I guess he should know.
