In a candid interview with Tucker Carlson, Mayor Eric Adams expressed feelings of abandonment by the Democratic Party, stating it has shifted away from supporting working-class people. He voiced concerns about the Biden Administration's response to his criticism of the migrant crisis in New York, accusing them of disregarding the city's challenges. Adams articulated his unease about the influx of migrants, linking it to crime issues, and acknowledged a shift in his stance on the city's sanctuary city policy, admitting he is struggling to manage the ongoing crisis.
"People often say, 'Well, you know, you don't sound like a Democrat and you seem to have left the party.' No. The party left me and left working-class people."
"The Biden Administration punished me for being vocal about the migrant crisis, and the White House response was: 'be a good Democrat, Eric.'"
"We have Venezuelan gang leaders that were coming to the city creating crimes. I'm at the end of the line here."
"I've cooled on my backing of New York's sanctuary city status in recent months."
