Rest in peace, Officer Jonathan Diller —and wake up, NY progressives
NY Post
An NYPD officer is dead because progressives have thrown law enforcement to the wolves and given the city over to crime.
To mince words would be a dishonor to Police Officer Jonathan Diller, a devoted father and husband, who served the city for three years before getting gunned down by a career criminal amid a routine traffic stop.
The suspect, Guy Rivera, and the driver, Lindy Jones, refused to get out of a double-parked car; instead, Rivera allegedly shot Diller in the stomach.
The two were well-known to police in the gang-ridden Queens neighborhood, with 35 prior busts between them — 21 for Rivera and 14 for Jones, whose rap sheet included arrests for assaults and attempted murder.
Jones was out on bail for gun charges that were brought last April.
Two more beneficiaries of New York’s revolving-door justice system.

“Everyone is worrying about what comes next,” reports David Patrikarakos at The Free Press of what people in Iran are telling him. He talked to “a friend in Tehran I will call Reza. ‘The bombing is heavy,’ he told me. ‘And it’s frightening. But we have been frightened and terrorized for almost 50 years.’ ” No one sees any “signs of mass uprising — it’s just too dangerous” as “gangs of Basij enforcers, often heavily armed, roam the streets, threatening civilians and forcing them indoors.” Indeed, “the entire regime is now on a war footing,” but: “The state is in disarray. Senior officials are scattered and confused” and “an internal power struggle appears to be under way.” He concludes: “Despite the Islamic Republic’s best efforts, the battle for Iran — by both external powers and Iranians inside the country — is far from over. It may take time, but I am convinced this regime will fall.”
