New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced millions of dollars in cuts to the police department’s budget — amid a massive surge in violent crime.
The plan would trim the NYPD budget by nearly $30 million, to about $5.41 billion, amid an ongoing surge in brazen retail thefts, shootings and homicides, including last month’s ambush murders of two cops in Harlem.

In a Q&A session with reporters, Adams, a former NYPD captain, said the proposed 0.6 percent cut kept police funding “basically flat.”
“There may be a slight decrease in the next few months, but it’s basically going to be flat,” he said.
“I’m not going to do anything that’s going to get in the way of keeping New Yorkers safe.”
Adams repeated his vow to increase efficiency by putting hundreds of cops with desk jobs back on the street to fight crime.
“Every man and woman must be on deck with the mission of the Police Department,” he said. CLICK HERE TO READ TODD’S EXPLOSIVE BEST-SELLING BOOK ON THE SOCIALIST TAKEOVER OF AMERICA.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
