New York Mayor Eric Adams has been caught on camera launching a furious tirade at a concerned citizen during a community meeting about the city’s rent increases. The stunned crowd watched as the increasingly agitated Mayor attacked an elderly woman, accusing her of treating him like a slave on a plantation.
The woman in question had raised legitimate concerns about the Mayor’s apparent refusal to control the rent increases that are dominating the lives of the city’s citizens. However, Eric Adams, who is known to be controlled by big business interests, chose to attack her instead of addressing her valid concerns.
It appears that Mayor Adams is only interested in following the demands of his corporate overlords, who undoubtedly benefit from the skyrocketing rental fees that they are able to charge. Rather than supporting the everyday people of this great city, the Mayor has aligned himself with the interests of the elites who control and manipulate New York’s housing market.
It is no wonder that New Yorkers are incensed by Mayor Adams’ behavior. He has consistently demonstrated a lack of understanding when it comes to the real-life struggles of his constituents, and seems only to care about protecting the interests of the wealthy and privileged.
It is time for Mayor Adams to step down and make way for someone who truly cares about the everyday people of this great city. Until then, the citizens of New York can only hope that their concerns will not continue to fall on deaf ears.
