Dark_Cloud_Overhead Posted February 20 Posted February 20 Hochul to Seek New Oversight, but Won’t Remove Adams for Now Gonna be up to the voters. Yeah, figured after hear more about the actual process last night and how it's subject to legal challenge that could and probably would be taken all the way to the supreme court that there's no way it would work anyway. 1 Quote

She didn't want to generate sympathy for Adams and just have him be voted back in under an R anyway, so I get it. I'd rather he be out on his ass, but I get it. 2 Quote
Raptorpat Posted February 20 Posted February 20 what she's proposing requires legislative approval, I don't know that she has their buy-in yet 1 Quote
1pooh4u Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Her not removing Adams will probably be the thing that gets her fired. She claims she is implementing oversight but wtf is that gonna do? How can oversight prove he’s not behaving like a puppet. Quote
1pooh4u Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Adams is a mayor with too many people holding shit over his head. He doesn’t comply to the satisfaction of Trump, he gets slapped w charges. He complies too much Hochul’s oversight accuses him of corruption. We got just about two years of this shit. 1 Quote

katt_goddess Posted February 21 Posted February 21 What good is oversight if the second it is supposed to kick in, the 'king' steps in and EO's it into oblivion... 1 2 Quote

1pooh4u Posted February 21 Posted February 21 Judge Dale Ho won’t make a decision until April 21 on the Adams’ case. He wants to hear from an independent attorney assigned to fight against the DOJ case. 2 Quote

Raptorpat Posted March 13 Posted March 13 Article gets into my headspace about why I couldn't see it happening, though it is https://www.politico.com/news/2025/03/13/cuomo-power-mayors-office-00228331 The counterpoint is that it's probably better odds than not that his intention is to win and then spend the entirety of 2026 using it as a platform to run for Governor against Hochul. Oh the joys of odd-year municipal elections. 3 Quote

1pooh4u Posted Wednesday at 02:15 PM Posted Wednesday at 02:15 PM Just came here to say that. He’s still a piece of shit. The judge just fucked the DOJ so they can’t turn him into a puppet mayor but he’s still a puppet mayor. 1 4 Quote

Ho gave the babies their bottles. I guess since he can’t force anyone to try the case dismissing w prejudice was the best option to avoid things looking like a quid pro quo. I guarantee Adams is still somehow under Trump’s thumb. Adams is a dumb mother fucker. Lambasting his own constituents and saying we suffer from “trump derangement syndrome” making himself sound just like a MAGA supporting moron. I tell you this much neither him nor Cuomo will be ANYWHERE near my 5 choices in the primary. 3 Quote

I thought Adams would be a no nonsense mayor he turned out to be all about the nonsense my favorite moment was when a passerby told DiBlasio to “go fuck yourself” I wish I could find the video it was hilarious cuz the dude was obviously from Brooklyn. Thick Brooklyn accents are hilarious especially when mad 😆 3 Quote

1pooh4u Posted yesterday at 12:21 PM Posted yesterday at 12:21 PM Adams is a bitch he knows he’s in trouble. He dropped out of the race as a democrat and will run as an independent. He knows that he wouldn’t have a chance in a primary 3 Quote
1pooh4u Posted yesterday at 12:22 PM Posted yesterday at 12:22 PM https://www.thecity.nyc/2025/04/03/eric-adams-independent-mayor-campaign/ He won’t win. 3 Quote
1pooh4u Posted yesterday at 12:54 PM Posted yesterday at 12:54 PM This got to be because he wouldn’t survive the rank choice Dem primary. It’s an attempt at staying in the race. when clearly no one wants him in the race, but no matter, everyone will forget all the shit he has done when the elections come around 3 Quote
