NYC Mayor Eric Adams: For Dems, ‘Being a Good Democrat’ Means Silently Watching Illegal Immigrants Destroy the City

Carlson: “And you — did you tell the White House that?”
Adams: “Over and over again. Over and over again. The impact of what this —”
Carlson: “They didn’t seem to care at all.”
Adams: “It appears to me that there was a bigger focus on the national election and not what it was doing to — to the the cities. And we built — we started to build a coalition of other mayors because when I was standing alone talking about this, it appears as though that well, Eric, why are you complaining and no one else is complaining? And then other mayors started to see what was happening in their cities. And I started meeting with the mayor of Chicago and Denver and other mayors and said we have to be uniform around this issue.”
Carlson: “It sounds like they treated you with contempt.”
Adams: “Again I think they used the terminology, you were not being a good Democrat. I think that was their philosophy. That I was supposed to silently watch what happens to this city. And I love this city. This is a city that I gave my life to protect. And I was watching the erosion. We were getting almost 8,000 migrants and asylum seekers a week, 16,000 every two weeks. And we were being compelled by the legal aid society to find them housing within a short period of time, until we had to go back to court and fight that this humanitarian crisis is not what is normally someone hasn’t the — the right to have a shelter within the city. And they — they were coming in at 1, 2, 3 A.M. in the morning. It was a constant overturn.”
