Mayor Eric Adams announced Tuesday a shift in his stance on deporting migrants, expressing openness to deport those charged with crimes from New York City before convictions are secured. This marks a departure from his earlier position of waiting for legal outcomes before deporting immigrants involved in criminal activity.
Adams revealed plans to meet with Tom Homan, President-elect Donald Trump’s newly appointed “border czar,” to discuss strategies for addressing the issue. “My position is people who commit crimes in our city, you have abdicated your right to be in our city and I am open to figure out the best way to address that,” he said.
He criticized migrant offenders, stating, “Those who are here committing crimes, robberies shooting at police officers, raping innocent people, have been a harm to our country.”
The mayor also called out progressives for hesitating to act decisively on deportations, citing concerns about “cancel culture.” He declared, “Cancel me, because I’m going to protect the people of this city.”

I smell a pardon coming.
No need for a pardon. His crimes are so run of the mill they can be made
to “ disappear” on their own
Adams declares NYC a sanctuary city and criticizes the Republicans in the Southern states for calling it a problem.
As soon as the illegals are shipped there, he declares a state of emergency.
Then, even criminals won’t be deported.
Now…they will.
The cherry on top is “Cancel me, because I’m going to protect the people of this city.”
Slowly, slowly, the Democrats who still have some sanity are waking up.
All talk, no action
Remember when he said he’ll back cops and be tough on crime?
Remember when he said he’ll get rid of the rats in NY?
ETC, ETC
That guy may have SOME good idea (and some terrible ones), but he has no idea how to implement them
