An NYPD captain who was transferred to a less desirable role after being caught on video bashing NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani as “an embarrassment” has become a veritable folk hero with an army of supporters backing him for speaking his mind about the radical socialist.
Republican pols and other high-ranking conservatives are now taking up Capt. James G. Wilson’s cause, and defending his Constitutional rights.
They say the department’s decision to ship Wilson from the 94th Precinct in Brooklyn – where he served as the second-highest officer for the Greenpoint station house – to the NYPD’s 911 call center in The Bronx is the latest example of City Hall having two sets of rules: one for far-left comrades and another for everyone else.
“If Capt. Wilson had said something negative about Donald Trump, he’d probably be declared a hero and get a medal and a dinner at Gracie Mansion,” said Councilwoman Joann Ariola (R-Queens).
“But since he spoke out against Dear Leader Mamdani, the manufactured outrage machine is kicking into gear, and the radicals are coming out of the woodwork to silence all public dissent. This is what they do, but more and more New Yorkers are starting to see through the censorship and realize what’s really going on.”
