YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAfter leading a controversial campaign against Mayor Bill de Blasio, the head of New York City's largest police union, Patrick Lynch, is facing an internal challenge of his own. Lynch, who accused de Blasio of having "blood on his hands" for a gunman's murder of two officers and later spearheaded the twoweek arrest and summons slowdown by New York City Police Department officers, will be challenged by dissident cops in the Patrolmen's Benevolent Association's next election in June. Democracy Now! cohost and New York Daily News columnist Juan González discusses the revolt, which he attributes in part to a changing NYPD demographic that in recent years has seen officers of color become the majority on the force.
