NYPD Chief Hits Back at AOC’s Columbia Claims

The New York City Police Department chief of patrol on Thursday pushed back at an online scolding from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., after officers from an anti-terrorism squad showed up outside an encampment of demonstrators at Columbia University.

Protesters’ tents popped up April 17, the day Columbia’s President Minouche Shafik was grilled about on-campus antisemitism by the House Committee on Education and the Workforce.

But the demonstrations have since grown and sparked similar actions at universities around the country.
