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. Adams tested positive on Monday, prompting him to cancel a Town Hall event previously scheduled for hours later, Fabien Levy, Adams' deputy mayor for communications, told News 4. 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.

According to a new report, former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo “edited” a state report that minimized the death count in nursing homes from COVID-19. The House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic, which will interview Cuomo on Tuesday, said Cuomo’s office made “demonstrably false” statements while engaging in a “cover-up,” the New York Post reported. In June 2024, Cuomo blamed federal and state health officials for the nursing home directive. “They [Cuomo and his then-staff] want to assert that that order is exactly the same as the federal CMS, which it is not,” Rep. Marc Molinaro said. “The state order says, ‘You shall take back individuals and you cannot deny them solely on the basis of COVID,’ which left them no option but to accept individuals that we knew would cause risk to the other patients.” “Andrew Cuomo was attempting to shift blame for what was a clear directive,” Molinaro continued. “When they identified and knew that the order was causing great loss, they subsequently cooked the books to suggest that the numbers of those who died in nursing homes were much less than we knew.” On March 25, 2020, the New York Department of Health issued an advisory that stated nursing homes had to accept residents returning from hospitals whether or not they had a diagnosis of COVID-19. The advisory stated: During this global health emergency, all NHs must comply with the expedited receipt of residents returning from hospitals to NHs. Residents are deemed appropriate for return to a NH upon a determination by the hospital physician or designee that the resident is medically stable for return.  Hospital discharge planners must confirm to the NH, by telephone, that the resident is medically stable for discharge. Comprehensive discharge instructions must be provided by the hospital prior to the transport of a resident to the NH. No resident shall be denied re-admission or admission to the NH solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19. NHs are prohibited from requiring a hospitalized resident who is determined medically stable to be tested for COVID-19 prior to admission or readmission. In the fall of 2020, speaking to Finger Lakes Daily News, Cuomo defended himself from the charge that his policies caused more deaths from COVID in nursing homes, the New York Post reported. In response to a question about the issue, Cuomo blamed the federal government, attacked Florida’s state government, claimed that New York “flattened the curve effectively,” and said, “It just never happened in New York, where we needed to say to a nursing home, ‘We need you to take this person even though they’re COVID positive.’ It never happened.” New York State has reported “more than 6,600 nursing home COVID-19 related deaths,” Finger Lakes Daily News reported, “but that number is likely much higher since New York does not include residents who initially contracted the virus at a nursing home but died after being transferred to a hospital.” State Senator Tom O’Mara co-sponsored a bill requiring the Department of Health to provide the accurate death toll from those in nursing homes. “He said many believe that number could be twice as high,” the Daily News noted.

The outlet asked Cuomo, “Governor, you said earlier that you lie down at night and you can sleep knowing that you saved lives. What would you say to New York residents who lost their loved ones in nursing homes due to your mandate back in late March regarding sending COVID-positive patients back to nursing homes?” “Yeah, I would say, first of all, that’s not why they lost a loved one,” Cuomo protested. “Your premise, the premise of your question, is just factually wrong. People who were lost in nursing homes were lost because that’s where the virus preys. The virus preys on senior citizens. The virus was introduced in this country in Washington, state of Washington in a nursing home. That’s who succumb to this virus, are immune-compromised senior citizens, and they’re predominantly located in nursing homes.” “Number two: you look at the nursing home deaths in this state; do you know what number we are by percentage before you made that statement? We’re number 46 out of 50 states,” Cuomo boasted. “And we had the worst problem, and we’re number 46 in terms of percentage of deaths in nursing homes.”
