In a statement circulated not by the DOE but by a public relations firm, Schools Chancellor David Banks says the mayor made the decision to speed u Banks' departure:

Schools Chancellor David Banks acknowledged that the Federal Bureau of Investigation seized his cell phones last week — one of several raids conducted by the FBI at the homes of officials in the Adams administration.

“The FBI did, in fact, come to my home, and they took my phones. I can't speak about what anybody else has done or any other aspects of the investigation,” Banks said on WNYC’s Brian Lehrer Show Thursday morning.

“I have been told by my lawyers that I’m absolutely not a target in this investigation, and I’m going to do everything I can to cooperate with the investigation. Outside of that, it would be inappropriate for me to speak about any of the additional details beyond that. But they did come to my home. They did take my phones. They did not search my home, and that was about it,” Banks said.

A testy @DOEChancellor avoids questions about the FBI raid at the home he shares with his fiancé Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright and the raid at the home of his brother Deputy Mayor Phil Banks - but says "if there's any other comments...it'll be happening tomorrow"

The guidelines include a list of "DON'Ts" and "NEVER do"s.

.@DOEChancellor says he's "tired" of the debate about segregation in specialized high schools. "It’s not a place and space that the mayor and I decided we wanted to lean into. That is why we have tried to build out other new, academically rigorous programs."
