Vincent Valalong been on this show quite a bit.

It all started when him and John Shell and Kaz Daughtry awarded me.

I don't deserve it, but they did anyway, with an honorary sergeant's badge.

And now Vinny and I have become great buddies, big time guy in the city,

president of the SBA, the sergeants, Benelevant Association. So, Ray Kelly was on this show yesterday, and I happened to like Jessica Tisch. I am curious to see what she does if Mamdani wins. I like her a lot, lover. But Kelly is the best commissioner in the history of this city. You don't have to share that opinion. I'm telling you it's a fact. He was so good he did it twice. And he's been in Curtis's corner for 40 years,

40. Just a month ago, Curtis said to me on this show that if he won, he would ask Ray Kelly

to be his police commissioner. Well, he's not going to win, and even if he did, he can't ask him

because yesterday Kelly endorsed Cuomo on this show.

Are you surprised to hear that?

No.

No.

You have people that you know, I'm not going to put you on the spot, don't worry.

People that you know and love that despised Andrew Cuomo, but they're voting for him.

Yes or no?

It's correct.

Correct.

So you guys have the opportunity to endorse one of these candidates.

You guys did endorse the current mayor, Eric Adams, the SBA, years ago before he beat Curtis.

But it doesn't look like any of these police unions are endorsing anybody, including you? Is that the case? That's correct. And why wouldn't you endorse one of these guys? We endorsed Eric because we felt he was the best path forward for public safety for this city. And at this point in time, I mean, this late in the race, I don't believe.

And my membership wants us to, wants us basically to stay out of it. Stay out of it. It's the message that we got, yes. So, I mean, I'm beholding to the members. And I don't get to push my opinions on them. I mean, I have my own opinions on who it is that I, that I'm going to vote for. Right. That's my personal opinions. Sure.

At the end of the day, I mean, we sat down, we talked to them. You talked to both candidates. Both candidates. Coma and Sleevo and Sliwa. That's correct. Right. And, you know, we heard them out, heard what their plans were. And this is where we're at. We're two almost a little over a week away from an election. and hopefully the other individuals, not the one that's going to be our mayor moving forward.

So clearly, you aren't impressed either way, which you look at Curtis's life.
