Is New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly in line for the top Homeland Security post?
Kelly said he’s spent time in Washington D.C., but added Sunday, “I know it’s wise to keep my mouth shut at this time,” Kelly told CBS’s “Face the Nation.”
But pressure is building against Kelly, whose controversial stop-and-frisk policy was struck down by a court as unconstitutional, The Hill reports.
Still, President Obama doesn’t seem to be bothered by Kelly’s fiery defense of stop-and-frisk.
“Mr. Kelly might be very happy where he is, but if he’s not, I’d want to know about it because obviously, he’d be very well-qualified for the job,” Obama said last month.
