New York City’s new Mayor, Eric Adams, held a press conference to pat himself on the back for his so-called accomplishments. While Adams expressed some fake concern about the ongoing struggles faced by the city, he failed to deliver any real solutions. In particular, he made a big show of acknowledging the illegal immigrant crisis and the astronomical costs it’s placing on the city.
Eric Adams Says He Sometimes Gives Himself the Middle Finger

Adams claimed that his administration has somehow successfully handled the “humanitarian crisis,” which is just a fancy way of saying that he’s failing to protect New Yorkers from the burdens of illegal immigration. He boasted about his administration’s leadership on the national problem, as if his weak policies are actually making a difference.
When confronted by a reporter about the backlash against his drastic budget cuts to address the illegal immigration crisis, Adams responded with shocking nonchalance. He admitted that some residents were giving him the finger over the cuts, but he dismissed their concerns as just the way things are in the city.
To make matters worse, Adams then made a completely inappropriate and self-deprecating remark about waking up in the morning and giving himself the finger. This so-called leader thinks it’s acceptable to make crude jokes about his own incompetence. It’s clear that Adams is more interested in his own ego than in actually fixing the city’s problems.
To top it all off, Adams went on to downplay the seriousness of the city’s challenges by comparing New York to a place where “every day you wake up, you could experience everything from a plane crashing into our Trade Center.” This insensitive and flippant remark shows just how out of touch Adams is with the struggles of everyday New Yorkers.
