New York City progressives are demanding Mayor Eric Adams' resignation after the DOJ dropped charges against him. Despite broad public support for his policies addressing violent illegal-migrant criminals, leading Democrats are rallying against him. Governor Kathy Hochul has been criticized for not defending Adams amid calls for his removal, while former Governor Andrew Cuomo remains notably silent on the matter. The situation has created tension within the Democratic Party, which struggles between progressive factions and moderates, highlighting deeper political divisions.
Adams is the democratically elected, Democratic mayor whose only evident sin is wanting to work lawfully with the feds to expel violent illegal-migrant criminals.
Governor Hochul is playing along with the lynch mob, stating that staffers quitting raises questions about the long-term future of Adams' administration.
Ex-Gov. David Paterson stated the obvious: 'I don't hear anything of a cause for him to leave office'; the noise is unfounded.
Rep. Ritchie Torres claimed there is a hostile takeover of New York's immigration policy, but the push against Adams seems politically motivated.
