FDNY will be hunting down firefighters who booed Letitia James



The full-figure NY Attorney General Letitia "Get Trump" James spoke to the FDNY firefighters in a ceremony at a Brooklyn church last week. It went over like a fart in a 2-man submarine.

Now the head of the FDNY is pushing back against a report that they are actually "hunting" down firefighters who booed and shouted "Trump, Trump, Trump." 

"Oh, come on. We’re in a house of God. First, Uhm, simmer down,” the New York AG said, attempting to simmer the crowd down. “Thank you for getting it out of your system,” she finished up with, rudely talking to these men as if they were children.

In a statement, FDNY Chief of Department John Hodgens said that the firefighters who disrupted James’s speech will be forced to take woke “re-education” classes and may be forced to adopt their own pronouns.

And while they claim to not be hunting down the protestors, they want them to turn themselves in so that they can be disciplined.

"Nobody is hunting anyone down," FDNY spokesman Jim Long told Fox News Digital in an email on Sunday morning. "We’re looking into those who clearly broke department regulations. It has nothing to do with politics. It’s about professionalism at an official event held in a house of worship."

Re-education has everything to do with politics--it's the opposite of freedom of expression as found in the U.S. Constitution and it's a Marxist tactic.

The New York Post first reported that FDNY Chief of Department John Hodgens wrote in an email to department brass that the FDNY’s Bureau of Investigation and Trials was investigating the incident and "will figure out who those members are." If that doesn't sound like hunting down people, I don't know what to say.

"I recommend they come forward. I have been told by the commissioner it will be better for them if they come forward and we don’t have to hunt them down," Hodges said in the email obtained by the Post. If that doesn't sound even more like the FDNY plans to hunt down their Trump supporters, you cannot be convinced otherwise.

The booing erupted as James walked up to the podium to honor the swearing-in of the first full-figure African American woman chaplain of the FDNY, the Rev. Pamela Holmes, as well as other first responders.


Following the ceremony, Hodgens admonished the rowdy behavior of the firefighters.

"Today’s ceremony was about one thing: the accomplishments of the members being promoted," he said. "The members whose behavior distracted from that celebration were an embarrassment and not befitting of the world's best fire department."

James led the months-long civil trial against Trump in New York City that alleged the former president had inflated his assets and committed fraud.

Judge Arthur Engoron handed down his ruling last month, finding Trump liable for more than $350 million in damages and barring him from operating his business in New York for three years.
