Thus, conservative filmmaker Matt Walsh might have pulled off one of the great coups in the history of unintentional satire. According to the New York Post, Walsh's new film "Am...

NEW: NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban expected to resign in the coming days, acc to 4 ppl we spoke to who are involved in/have knowledge of the matter. W/ @michaelgartland @JCColtin @joeanuta https://t.co/cHZZ4xAPaC — Sally Goldenberg (@SallyGold) September 9, 2024 The development follows FBI agents raiding the homes of Caban and multiple aides of New York City Mayor Eric Adams. JUST IN: Home Of NYPD Commissioner Raided By FBI The FBI confiscated the phones of Caban and other high-ranking department officials as part of a corruption investigation. BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: The FBI has reportedly confiscated the cell phone of NYPD Commissioner Edward Caban. An additional two phones were confiscated from a Lieutenant and a Sergeant working in Manhattan. — NYScanner (@nyscanner) September 5, 2024 "Caban was scheduled to meet with police brass Monday, as he weighs a decision that is not entirely his to make, according to two people who were granted anonymity to speak freely about a sensitive matter," POLITICO noted. As of Monday, Caban had not resigned from his post. From POLITICO: Mayor Eric Adams, who readily stands by embattled aides, said of Caban during an unrelated press conference Monday that “I chose him for his experience and what he brought after 30-something years of service.” “Rumors are always out there,” Adams said. “There was nothing that came from me that fed those rumors.” However, when the mayor was asked if he could guarantee Caban would still be the police commissioner in two months, he declined to do so. “I don’t think anything in life in guaranteed,” he said. The move would mark the first staff shakeup in the upper ranks of Adams’ administration since federal investigators last week descended upon the homes of several top city officials. They also seized Caban’s phone and requested phones from the police commissioner’s twin brother, James, the commissioner’s chief of staff and Deputy Inspector Robert Gault, among others, POLITICO reported. Rumor is @NYPDPC Edward Caban is stepping down as early as tomorrow. Do you think he should step down or should he let the investigation play out ? pic.twitter.com/tkRxHqnSx3 — John D. Macari Jr. (@JohnDMacari) September 9, 2024 ABC7 New York reports: Caban was named commissioner of the NYPD just a little more than a year ago. Eyewitness News has learned his brother is accused of trying to leverage their relationship in order to get work providing security to nightclubs. The commissioner has not commented publicly, but several New York City Councilmembers are demanding that he resign, saying a police commissioner forced to surrender his electronics creates an appearance that is disturbing enough that he should resign simply because of that. It is just one of four federal investigations now focused on the NYPD and City Hall. Federal agents on Wednesday took devices from Caban as well as Mayor Eric Adams' schools chancellor, two deputy mayors and several other advisers. Sources say it's all part of a federal investigation into potential influence peddling in the Adams administration. None of the officials involved have been charged with a crime, but the wave of searches added to a cloud of suspicion around Adams, a former city police captain who has fashioned himself as a champion of law and order. Meanwhile, Eric Adams tested positive for COVID-19. #BREAKING: New York City Mayor Eric Adams tests positive for COVID-19 — R A W S A L E R T S (@rawsalerts) September 9, 2024 Per NBC New York: New York City Mayor Eric Adams has tested positive for COVID-19, according to City Hall, which could see him take a step back from the public eye amid swirling federal investigations into some of his top officials.

The mayor reportedly "wasn't feeling great" during an event early in the day and decided to take a COVID test.

Kennedy had “neither pointed to any source of law that prescribes and defines a duty to withdraw a candidate’s name from the ballot nor demonstrated his clear legal right to performance of this specific duty,” the court’s majority order said. Democratic-nominated Justice Elizabeth Welch penned a concurring statement, noting that Kennedy had waited “more than four months” after he was nominated for president before asking Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson’s office to remove his name. “When plaintiff made his request, defendant faced a deadline for ballot printing that was two weeks away,” Welch wrote. “Additionally, the Natural Law Party, which opposed plaintiff’s efforts to remove himself from the ballot, had no opportunity to field a candidate and faced considerable prejudice.” BREAKING – Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will be ON the Michigan ballot, state Supreme Court rules, 5-2.
