The largest counterterrorism and intelligence gathering operation in American policing has a new leader today and for the first time it is a woman.
“Our job is to distinguish signal from noise and figure out what we do with the information, how we can use it to protect our city and to make sure that our partners elsewhere across the country, around the world, can use it to their best advantage, too”, Weiner said.
Weiner prophetically said the threat was now also aimed at the government and its institutions as well, “and you've had, over the last couple of years, sort of widespread distrust of institutions, of law enforcement, of government that's manifesting in violent extremisms, civil unrest across the country.”
The announcement was made by New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Commissioner Edward Caban. Former NYPD Commissioner Bill Bratton spoke at her appointment crediting the work of Weiner and her team in helping to stop or prosecute the over 50 attacks aimed at the city since 9/11, over half of them in the last 10 years.
