Die Kritik am Bürgermeister von New York City reißt nicht ab: Nun haben vier Stellvertreter von Eric Adams ihre Posten aufgegeben. Am Dienstag soll ein entscheidendes Treffen über seine Zukunft stattfinden.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams faces growing pressure to resign amid criticism over his leadership and recent decisions. Four of his deputy mayors have stepped down, with City Council Chair Adrienne Adams citing a loss of confidence in Adams and his ability to govern effectively. Critics, including the left-leaning City Council, accuse Adams of aligning too closely with former President Donald Trump on immigration issues. Additionally, the Justice Department's decision to drop a corruption case against Adams, which led to the resignations of several district attorneys, has fueled further controversy. Adams has denied all charges and rejected calls for his resignation. Meanwhile, New York Governor Kathy Hochul, who has the authority to remove Adams, has expressed concern over the instability in the city and plans to meet with leaders to address the situation. The case against Adams is set to go to court in April.
