Communist Zohran Mamdani wouldn’t become mayor of New York City until January 1, 2026… But the effects of the commmunist’s dominating win in New York City are already begining. New York City’s chief Robert Tucker is resigning, just hours after Mamdani’s win…. I’m sure it’s because of Mamdani and nothing else.
Tucker’s reasons for tendering his resignation were not immediately clear. The Post has reached out to the commissioner for comment.
The FDNY’s 35th commissioner stepped in to lead the department in August 2024, replacing Laura Kavanagh, who had a tumultuous tenure at the helm.
Adams lauded Tucker at the time of his appointment.“Commissioner Tucker brings decades of experience in protecting public safety to this role, as well as strong personal ties to the FDNY,” he said in a statement last year.
Tucker, 55, founded T&M in 1999. Before that, he worked as a special assistant for the Queens District Attorney’s Office.
