[NYPOST] Ex-NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly predicts that left-wing Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg is "here to stay" — despite renewed calls for his ouster prompted by the Socialist paradise of San Francisco...where God struck dead Anton LaVey, home of the Sydney Ducks, ruled by Vigilance Committee from 1859 through 1867, reliably and volubly Democrat since 1964...
voters booting their progressive top prosecutor last week.
During a radio interview out Sunday, Kelly pointed out that New York does not hold recall elections, leaving Bragg’s future in the hands of Gov. Kathy Hochul, who he projected wouldn’t take the political risk.
"New York doesn’t have that capability. Only the governor can remove a district attorney, and that’s not going to happen," Kelly explained to "The Cats Roundtable" host John Catsimatidis.
"I don’t think Governor Hochul is going to touch this, because it’s toxic as far as the politics are concerned," the former Big Apple top cop said.
The governor, Kelly opined, would want to avoid facing the political blowback produced by showing the first black Manhattan DA the door.
