00:00What the chain of command is now?
00:02What does that mean?
00:03Well, is it Pam Bondi speaking to the mayor, so how does this work?
00:06So, the executive order is clear.
00:10The president has requested NPD services, and our home rule charter outlines the process.
00:18The president designated Attorney General Bondi as his proxy to request services for me.
00:26But does the Attorney General have the authority to implement changes at NPD, or just request changes?
00:33The executive order is pretty clear, and so is the law.
00:37The president has the authority, by virtue of the statute, to request services.
00:43Our organizational chart, how we do business, how we fund the police, how we make changes, none of that has changed.
00:50So, you retain hiring, firing?
