Former New York City Police Commissioner Bernie Kerik passed away on Thursday.
He was 69.
Bernie was hospitalized in the cardiac unit of a hospital earlier this month.
FBI DIrector Kash Patel posted news of Bernie’s death on X.
Today, we mourn the loss of Bernard B. Kerik, a warrior, a patriot, and one of the most courageous public servants this country has ever known. Bernie passed away tragically on May 29, 2025, after a private battle with illness.
With over forty years of service in law enforcement and national security, he dedicated his life to protecting the American people. As the 40th Police Commissioner of New York City, Bernie led with strength and resolve in the aftermath of the September 11th attacks, guiding the NYPD through one of the darkest chapters in our nation’s history.
He was decorated more than 100 times for bravery, valor, and service, having rescued victims from burning buildings, survived assassination attempts, and brought some of the world’s most dangerous criminals to justice. His legacy is not just in the medals or the titles, but in the lives he saved, the city he helped rebuild, and the country he served with honor.
Rest easy, Commissioner. Your watch has ended, but your impact will never fade.
End of Watch – May 29, 2025

This is the last tweet on Bernie’s X account before he passed. It’s about election integrity.
Today I created the Election Integrity Task Force together with the FBI and DHS to safeguard our voter rolls, remove ineligible voters and prosecute election crimes. https://t.co/9TwPsYjvAx

Here’s a photo I took with Bernie and his longtime friend Mayor Rudy Giuliani back in 2021.
Bernard was a patriot up until the end. What a wonderful man.
He loved his country. He loved President Trump. And, he loved America.
He will be dearly missed.
Bernie was outspoken and often correct.
He said this in August 2022.
