The New York City Fire Department (FDNY) issued a scolding to firefighters it says brought "discredit" to the department after booing New York Attorney General Letitia James and cheering for former President Trump at a promotion ceremony last week, warning those who took part to protest on their own time, according to a report.
The department handed out a memo at firehouses across New York City on Sunday that said the FDNY’s Bureau of Investigations and Trials (BITS) is combing through video to identify those who took part in the behavior, the New York Post reported.
Firefighters "should understand that BITS is gathering video and identifying members that brought discredit … to the department," read the memo obtained by the Post. "We want the members to come forward. They will come to HQ to be educated [on] why their behavior is unacceptable."
