New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who was federally indicted Wednesday evening, previously blamed the Biden administration for failing to secure the southern border, as the Big Apple was inundated with a flood of illegal migrants.
“This issue will destroy New York City, destroy New York City. We’re getting 10,000 migrants a month,” Adams told NYC residents at a town hall last year, adding he saw no end to the crisis.
Exactly one year ago, Mayor Eric Adams admitted (off-script) that migrants are "destroying NYC"

“I said it last year when we had 15,000, I’m telling you now with 110,000. The city we knew we’re about to lose and we all in this together,” he said.
In another announcement, Adams commented on how the crisis has caused an “erosion of the quality of life” in the city.

“For many months, we were able to keep the visualization of this crisis from hitting our streets, but we have reached a breaking point,” Adams remarked, describing the massive numbers of migrants flooding the area and exhausting resources.
Of course, this all reflects very poorly on Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris, whose job it was as “border czar” over the past three-and-a-half years to secure the southern border.
On Wednesday, Adams was indicted by the US Justice Department on charges of a campaign contribution scheme, bribery, and other crimes.
The indictment came as several members of his cabinet had their homes raided by federal agents in recent weeks, while other key figures of his administration resigned.
Upon news of his indictment, Mayor Adams released a statement maintaining his innocence and saying he would fight the charges.
Lowkey could be a redemption arc for Eric Adams. But I'm going to sit this one out and let him fight it.

Many on social media suspect Adams’ efforts to call out the Democrat establishment for destroying his city were his undoing.
Adams is dirty! So what?!

They are ALL dirty.
So what’s the difference?!
Adams made the mistake of telling the truth about the real costs of the Democrats plan of importing FOREVER DEMOCRAT VOTERS!

You might ask yourself how democrats local politicians can just refuse to acknowledge the problems caused by the illegal invasion of their cities.
