    This is crazy. This is probably the worst thing, I think, that's happened. We have our first big confrontation. We're gearing up for some. For some true memory. So basically what happened is Eric Adams was Democrat mayor for New York City. He got indicted federally on a bunch of bribery stuff and basically stealing public money stuff, kind of federal indictment. Big deal, pretty big case, pretty solid case, probably. According to all the prosecutors at the or the four assistant attorneys at the doj, Eric Adams flies to Mar a Lago. And Trump basically says, here's the deal. We're going to drop these charges at least until after the election, as long as you promise to back up my, my immigration policy and my administration's goals.

    Mayor Adams will sit down with President Elect Trump at his Florida home to discuss New York City's priorities. Mayor Adams schedule says he left New York for Florida yesterday, and this meeting is expected to take place at 1pm today. The mayor has said a partnership with the federal government is critical to New York City's success. Trump has also said he would consider pardoning Adams if he was convicted on federal corruption charges.

    And so Pam Bondi, the Attorney General, through her Deputy Attorney General Bovet or Bovey or whatever, tells the people working in the case, you need to dismiss these charges now. And obviously the people beneath them are like, excuse me, this is bullshit. This is like, quite literally, like a quid pro quo. You're quite literally trying to use political leverage, prosecutorial leverage here, to force this mayor to follow your political agenda. This is unbelievably and unfathomably improper. This is actual, literal, corrupt bullshit. And so now you've got a bunch of people who are basically quitting the Department of justice. More resignations. Mr. Bove, I have received correspondence indicating that I refused your order to move to dismiss the indictment against Eric Adams without prejudice, subject to certain conditions, including the express possibility of reinstatement of the indictment. That is not exactly correct. The U.S. attorney, Danielle R.

    Sassoon, never asked me to file such a motion, and I therefore never had an opportunity to refuse. But I am entirely in agreement with her decision not to do so for the reason stated in her February 12, 2025 letter to the Attorney General. In short, the first justification for the motion, that Damian Williams role in the case somehow tainted a valid indictment, supported by ample evidence and pursued under four different U.S. attorneys, is so weak as to be transparently pretextual. This phrase, when we say pretextual, he means you're just writing shit to justify shit, right? That's what that Means here, right? It's so weak. It's transparently just looking for a false way to support your bullshit is basically what he's saying. It's transparently pretextual. The second justification is worse. No system of ordered liberty can allow the government to use the carrot of dismissing charges or the stick of threatening to bring them again to induce an elected official to support its policy objectives.

    There is a tradition in public service of resigning in a last ditch effort to head off a serious mistake. Some will view the mistake you are committing here in the light of their generally negative views of the new administration. I do not share those views. I can even understand how a chief executive who, whose background is in business and politics might see the contemplated dismissal with leverage as a good if distasteful deal. But any assistant U.S. attorney would know that our laws and traditions do not allow using the prosecutorial power to influence other citizens, much less elected officials in this way. If no lawyer within earshot of the President is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool or enough of a coward to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.

  • Unknown A
    Please consider this my resignation. It has been an honor to serve as a prosecutor in the Southern District of New York. Jesus. So supposedly the the news right now or a couple hours ago was that Beauvais basically got the what, like 22 different, I think U.S. attorneys or assistant U.S. attorneys in a room and said one of you is going to file this dismissal or else you're all fired. Hold on, let me see if I can find this. Is this a different person than the one that resigned the other day? Yes. Strong rumor with credible sourcing. The DOJ has put all of Public Integrity line attorneys in a room and told them that they have an hour for someone to choose who will sign the motion to dismiss. And if nobody does, they will all be fired. The nastiest strong arming in DOJ history by a long shot.
    (0:04:08)
  • Unknown A
    I guess they might clear out the entire Public Integrity office then. But some people are saying that could be. I guess the next step basically is all of these people are going to be fired. There's no way one guy would come forward and sign this, right? So Sassoon, who is the lead, who is the prosecutor on this case, is quit. A few other members from the DOJ resigned yesterday. John Keller, the acting head of the Public Integrity Section, and then Kevin Driscoll, the acting head of the department's Criminal Division. Both of these people resigned as well because they refused to dismiss the charges either. We had Southern District New York Prosecutor Hagan Scotten resign with a scathing letter. And then now there's a rumor that as of a few hours ago, the DOJ basically put all of the Public integrity attorneys in a room, and they have one hour for somebody to choose who's going to sign the motion to dismiss.
    (0:05:12)
  • Unknown A
    And if nobody does, all of them are fired. This is probably the first huge. What would you say? The first huge. No, I was gonna say branch of government confrontations, but no, this is still technically all within the executive, I guess, the first set of layoffs or resignations. What do these people resigning mean? It means they're saying publicly that this is corrupt, we're not gonna have any part in it, and we're leaving. Why don't they resist and force a firing? Are all these people cowards that they fear they'll be attacked by the MAGA crowd? It might have to do with, like, getting pension or whatever, too. I don't know, Maybe if you get fired or whatever, you get, like, out of all your benefits or something. What is maga's consensus on this? How are they defending this? It's impossible. It's all bullshit. I mean, they'll say anything.
    (0:06:05)
  • Unknown A
    What do you mean? MAGA is never turning on Trump. Learn to shoot a gun. Learn to defend yourself, whatever you have to do. Because if Trump told your mom to kill you, he would. Or your brother and sister to come after you, they'd probably f cking do it. MAGA will follow Trump to the ends of the f. Cking earth. Be ready to defend yourself. Few people are saying that they found somebody to sign the motion. Oh, five minutes ago. U.S. prosecute agrees to seek dismissal of Adams charges. Under pressure, sources say a US Federal prosecutor agreed on Friday to file a motion to dismiss the criminal corruption charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams to spare other career staff from potentially being fired for refusing to do so. Acting attorney, Acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Beauvais or Bovey, in a Friday meeting with all department's career public integrity prosecutors told them they had an hour to decide among themselves who would file the motion, the sources said.
    (0:06:54)
  • Unknown A
    Can you summarize this Eric Adams situation? I don't understand. Am I not doing a good job at explaining this? Okay, Eric Adams is the mayor of New York City. He was indicted for some corruption stuff that he almost certainly did. Okay. Because when the feds, when the federal government is bringing an indictment, that means that they probably gotcha. They don't usually just indict on a whim, okay? There's that retarded quote, that fake. Lawyers who graduated from Rank 300 Law School say, you're gonna die a ham sandwich. Well, they've convicted, like, 95% of ham sandwiches that they've indicted, okay? When it comes to federal prosecution, so he's indicted, most likely. Everybody knows that he's. And then Trump looks like he's gonna win the election. Trump wins the election, and Eric Adams, the Democrat, says, hey, my photo ops with Luigi aren't helping me enough. How about I catch a plane down to Mar A Lago and chat with Donald Trump, see if he can help me out.
    (0:07:50)
  • Unknown A
    Goes to Mar A Lago, chats with Trump, comes back. All of a sudden, the Department of Justice, the head of who is Pam Bondi, and then the second top, who's Emil Bovey. Bovey sends a letter to the prosecutor on the Eric Adams case and says, hey, you guys, been a great job. We're dropping these charges. I need you to file a dismissal of charges because you guys were too politically corrupt before. Now, I'm not saying you did a bad job investigating, okay? We're not saying anything about the evidence, but here's what we need you to do. We need you to dismiss the charges without prejudice, meaning we can bring them up again if we want. And then we're gonna review this in November after the election. Okay? I am not exaggerating anything. I'm telling you. This is all verbatim in the memo that Bovey wrote, okay?
    (0:08:55)
  • Unknown A
    I'm not. I'm not exaggerating or making any of this up for memes, okay? As per the first paragraph, all right, the defendant, Eric Adams, the mayor, must agree in writing to dismissal without prejudice, meaning the charges can be brought again. The defendant must agree in writing that he is not a prevailing party under the Hyde Amendment. It's not really relevant. I don't care. And three, the matter shall be reviewed by the confirmed U.S. attorney in the Southern District of New York, meaning they can look over it again following the November 2025 mayoral election. There shall be no further targeting of Mayor Adams or additional investigative steps prior to that review. And you are further directed to take all steps within your power to cause Mayor Adams security clearances to be restored. And the idea is, basically, he's not going to be able to help Trump if he's not able.
    (0:09:47)
  • Unknown A
    If he's facing all of these indictments. That's bullshit. How is he gonna help Daddy Trump if he's facing all these indictments. Again, I'm not making this up. Okay, this is just verbatim written in the request for dismissal. Second, the pending prosecution has unduly restricted Mayor Adams ability to devote full attention and resources to the illegal immigration and violent crime that escalated under the policies of the prior administration. We're concerned about the impact of the prosecution on Mayor Adams ability to support critical, ongoing federal efforts to protect the American people from the disastrous effects of unlawful mass migration and resettlement as described in Executive Order 14165. Accomplishing the immigration objectives established by President Trump and the Attorney General is every bit as important, if not more so, as to the objectives that the prior administration pursued by releasing violent criminals such as Victor Boutique, the merchant of death.
    (0:10:38)
  • Unknown A
    Ms. Sassoon said, no, I'm not dropping these charges. This is insane and improper, and if you want me to drop them, I'll resign. And then Bovey said, okay, bye, your resignation is accepted. And then two or three other people have now resigned, one with an incredibly scathing letter. That was Bay Zed, another Southern District of New York prosecutor, Hagan Scotten, who said there is a tradition in public service of resigning in a last ditch effort to head off a serious mistake. Some will be the mistake you are committing here in the light of their generally negative views of the new Trump administration. I do not share those views. I can even understand how a chief executive like Trump, whose background is in business and politics, might see the contemplated dismissal with leverage. Dismissal with leverage. Quid pro quo as a good, if distasteful deal. But any assistant U.S.
    (0:11:35)
  • Unknown A
    attorney would know that our laws and traditions do not allow using the prosecutorial power to influence other citizens, much less elected officials, in this way. If no lawyer within earshot of the president is willing to give him that advice, then I expect you will find eventually someone who is enough of a fool or enough of a coward to file your motion. But it was never going to be be me. So there have been a couple other resignations and then that's what's going on. But that's basically what's happened. Is is the president, in simple words, has said, looks like you're facing some charges there, buddy. What if we take these charges back and you help us with our agenda? That's basically what's happening. So right now we're seeing Mayor Adams sitting here, who is basically being extorted, not. Sorry, let me be clear with my language, okay?
    (0:12:35)
  • Unknown A
    Who is being extorted by President Trump and his Department of Justice sitting alongside the border czar. And Adams has now agreed under extortion to Open a new ICE detention camp for the federal border czar guy sitting right next to him. That's where we're at right now. Okay. It's. This is probably one of the worst, maybe even worse like viscerally than the doji stuff going on. It's just an insane. This is an insane set of conditions here.
    (0:13:26)
  • Unknown C
    If he doesn't come through, I'll be back in New York City and we won't be sitting on the couch. I'll be in his office up his butt saying where the hell is the agreement we came to?
    (0:14:03)
  • Unknown D
    So I want ISIS deliver and I want ICE to deliver. We're going to deliver for the safety of the people of this city.
    (0:14:12)
  • Unknown A
    I don't link me these 18 second clips. I would need to see the full context. What does this account? There's so much like actual up horrible shit happening right now. Like I don't want any retarded 20 second clips to distract from. What is this? Fox and Friends? Adams Homan. Wait, somebody linked it?
    (0:14:20)
  • Unknown E
    Well, it has been a very busy week for New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
    (0:14:49)
  • Unknown A
    Fox News spins this. All right. Can't they say it was Senator Duress? It's just a motion to dismiss. It's not a confession or something. Also, what's the sourcing on this? What a time I chose to take a few days away. The number of resignations today in protest of the DOJ's order to dismiss the Adams case is now triple. The number that occurred during the 73 Saturday Night Massacre is Ryan J. Riley notes. Nice. There's shock and dismay across the legal community regardless of partisan allegiance. Are there any other big names who've resigned or any other people who.
    (0:14:53)
  • Unknown E
    Department of justice earlier this week dropped corruption charges against him. And yesterday he met with border czar Tom Homan about the next steps in fighting New York City's migrant crisis.
    (0:15:45)
  • Unknown F
    How did it go? Well, Mayor Adams and Tom Holman join us right now. Guys, great to see you together. Make some news. Mr. Mayor, from your perspective, how did this meeting go? Why was it necessary?
    (0:15:57)
  • Unknown D
    Good. I think that and Tom could speak for himself. I think he had a real level of frustration and he was trying to figure out, hey, what's going on, Eric? What is happening? And we were able to get in the room and really articulate what are my powers? What are my authorities? And what are some of the things that we need to legislatively address that is preventing us from doing what we want to do and that is getting dangerous people off our streets.
    (0:16:08)
  • Unknown E
    Right.
    (0:16:28)
  • Unknown A
    This is such. This is like the most obvious quid pro quo. This is why, by the way, this is why you have to hold people accountable when. If they, like, break the law. Right. Part of the whole reason of why people were in such dismay that Trump was able to walk away from his first two impeachments is that, like, what is the message that you're sending? Well, you can just do it again. Why not? You're never gonna be held accountable. You're fine. Just keep doing it. Right. This is just such, like, an obvious overt. Like, I feel stupid even saying it. Like, I feel like I'm saying, like, it's so obvious that the sun is out right now. Right. Like, we can all see that. Right.
    (0:16:29)
  • Unknown F
    Mr. Mayor, from your perspective, how did this meeting go? Why was it necessary?
    (0:17:06)
  • Unknown D
    Good. I think that. And Tom could speak for himself. I think he had a real level of frustration, and he was trying to figure out what's going on, Eric, what is happening? And we were able to get in the room and really articulate, what are my powers? What are my authorities? And what are some. Some of the things that we need to legislatively address that is preventing us from doing what we want to do, and that is getting dangerous people off our streets.
    (0:17:09)
  • Unknown E
    Right. And Tom Holman, as you know, mayor, a couple days ago, said he was angry at you in New York City because. Sounds like last time you guys got together over at Gracie Mansion, you probably said some stuff. Maybe we'd like to do this and that. I think, Mr. Homan and Tom, you can start with this. You were frustrated that he wasn't doing enough. He wasn't keeping up his end of the deal.
    (0:17:26)
  • Unknown C
    Well, look, you know, I've been on that network for four years, and I've called a mayor out many times for not stepping up when it comes to public safety threats. But I tell you, when I sat down with him, I saw the cop in him, and he really does want to do the right thing because he has a cop. He's a lifelong copy. So he wants. He wants to help take public safety threats off the streets in New York.
    (0:17:41)
  • Unknown A
    This is such bullshit. This is crazy. This guy is. Is being held hostage by a DOJ that's only rescinding these for reconsideration until after the election. This is such an insane. This is so disgraceful. Holy.
    (0:17:54)
  • Unknown C
    Making our safer. He also wants to help find these missing children. We got 300,000 missing children. That many of them are here in the city. We know that we got to find them. And we'll be working with his intelligence division his officers to save these children, because many of these children are forced sex trafficking. Many are enforced labor. We need to save them. And I think everybody can agree to that. I don't care what side of the political spectrum you're on.
    (0:18:16)
  • Unknown D
    You know, people want to hijack this narrative and turn into a political narrative where we're saying we need to have public safety. I requested a meeting. I reached out to his team and said, we want to sit down. This has been an issue I was talking about before the election, spring of 2022. You look at these quotes over and over again. We need to go after these dangerous people in our street. And now I have someone that understands that narrative, and we are fighting together to get it done.
    (0:18:31)
  • Unknown B
    I know Tom has been on our network so many times saying he felt like ice's hands were tied under the last administration. You've agreed to sign an executive order to open up an ICE office at Rikers island so that these dangerous criminals that are here illegally can be deported. Tell the folks at home, because they'll hear this. They'll say, oh, they're going to Rikers Islands. He felt like ice, his hands were tied. Under the last administration, you've agreed to sign an executive order to open up an ICE office at Rikers island so that these dangerous criminals that are here illegally can be deported.
    (0:18:48)
  • Unknown A
    Like, this is crazy. This is it. This is. This is probably the worst thing, I think, that's happened. I think this is the. I think this is the worst. What the. Who is this Tom Holman guy? Served as the acting director of ice from 2017 to 2018. Oh, he's our new. Oh, he's the border czar. Oh, he's. Oh, cool. Okay, nice.
    (0:19:09)
  • Unknown B
    Tell the folks at home, because they'll hear this. They'll say, oh, they're going to come after me next. You said these are the worst of the worst. So who is at Rikers island that will be deported? What have they done?
    (0:19:52)
  • Unknown D
    You bring in two points where the far left has hijacked this narrative, and.
    (0:19:59)
  • Unknown A
    Now he's doing a why I left the left thing, obviously, and he's trying to be right or whatever is running.
    (0:20:03)
  • Unknown D
    In our schools, ICE is running in our churches, and they are creating this frenzy. They're not in the business of just grabbing children. And we need to, you know, just stop all this noise. Rikers island, particularly after all the reforms, Rikers island is now having some of the most dangerous people in our city. And by having ICE on Rikers island, part of our gang intelligence, using our intel With NYPD correction officers, we can identify those gangs inside and outside on the street. There was no reason they were removed from Rikers Island. And as I sat down with Tom earlier, I said that we're going to look at all the legalese. I'm able to do an executive order to put them back on Rikers Island. What? They should be part of our criminal justice apparatus.
    (0:20:07)
  • Unknown F
    You have a left wing legislature.
    (0:20:38)
  • Unknown A
    Wouldn't it achieve more to dismiss with prejudice, to destroy Trump's leverage and get back the mayor on our side? That wouldn't get him back on our side. This is ridiculous. All of this is ridiculous. That case was rock solid. Why would they dismiss their. It's just. This is just corruption through. I don't want to say at the highest level because it's through the whole. This is just an insane. If Adams is going to be indicted after again after he loses the mayoral election, why is he even doing this? So his lawyers can argue that he was extreme? No. What? He won't be indicted as long as he plays ball. That's what's being said here. Play ball with us and you'll probably be fine. Don't. And those charges are coming back.
    (0:20:40)
  • Unknown D
    I'm able to do an executive order to put them back on Rikers island, which they should be with part of our criminal justice apparatus.
    (0:21:15)
  • Unknown F
    You have a left wing legislature. Everybody knows it. And for some reason nobody votes in New York. So the same left wingers get in every time. But if you had your druthers, would New York City be a sanctuary city?
    (0:21:19)
  • Unknown D
    What we would always be. This has always been a city of immigrants.
    (0:21:26)
  • Unknown F
    So you think it should be.
    (0:21:29)
  • Unknown D
    No, no. But let me explain because this is what's getting conflated all the time. But the sanctuary city has stated that if you're in this city and you're paying taxes, you should have access to the services. What I asked the city council to do, change the bill that was already in place and modify it. That if you are committing a crime, that we should be able to collaborate with ICE and even on civil enforcement. If you have committed a crime, that part of the bill is wrong. But everyday people who are here and today, they're moving to be documented. If they are going to school, working, paying taxes, then they should be able to provide police services, hospital services, children should go to school. That is what we're seeing.
    (0:21:29)
  • Unknown F
    You don't agree with that, Tom?
    (0:21:58)
  • Unknown C
    I don't agree. I think sanctuary is a sanctuary of criminals. But we walked out of the meeting yesterday and getting back to Rutgers island is a game changer. We can get. Not only we get the bad guys, but they hit the street.
    (0:22:00)
  • Unknown A
    Could a judge refuse the. Without prejudice refusal. A judge could refuse the dismissal because the judge feels like the process hasn't been followed correctly. The judge that was part of what Sassoon had written in her refusal to dismiss is that it's not even clear that a judge would be able to accept this dismissal of charges because they're being done in an improper way. Let me see what she had written. You have to have a valid basis to seek dismissal. Now, if you're dismissing a case almost all the time, like these are. I don't want to call this a rubber stamp because it was a wrong idea. But, like, if you're seeking a dismissal, you probably have a good reason to do so. And as long as the defendants agree, then you both agree and you dismiss it. And generally it's fine. But if the government is literally saying, well, we have a good case and it's a strong case and we have no real reason to dismiss and we just want to dismiss for the lulz, that's.
    (0:22:07)
  • Unknown A
    You can't dismiss a case for the lulz. You have to have a reason for. To dismiss a case. The court may decline leave to dismiss if the manifest public interest requires it. The reasons advanced by Mr. Bovey for dismissing the indictment are not ones I can in good faith defend as in the public interest and as consistent with the principles of impartiality and fairness that guide my decision making. That's not exactly what I was looking for. Hold on. I don't know if it was a highlighted thing or not, but she mentions that, like, a judge might not even accept. Oh, maybe it's this one. Seeking leave of court, meaning you want to dismiss the charges. Basically, seeking leave of court to dismiss a properly returned indictment based on Mr. Bovey's stated rationales is also likely to backfire by inviting skepticism and scrutiny from the court that will ultimately hinder the Department of Justice interests.
    (0:23:03)
  • Unknown A
    In particular, the court is unlikely to acquiesce in using the criminal process to control the behavior. Public figure. There's. Yeah, there's no guarantee that the court would go through with it, which would be very strange. I don't even know what that looks like. But doesn't the government typically do shit like this before they press charges? Well, no. If they haven't filed anything, they don't have to dismiss anything. Once you filed either a civil complaint or filed criminal charges, indicted somebody, now the matter is before a court, and the Matter has to be resolved before the court.
    (0:23:59)
  • Unknown C
    Three, the intelligence of how TDA operates, where they're operating, all this intelligence together at Records island will have access to. But no, I'm strictly against sanctuary city status just because I think I agree.
    (0:24:48)
  • Unknown A
    This is corrupt, yet it looks little different than a plea bargain with worse criminals in exchange for their cooperation and testimony. No plea bargaining in exchange for cooperation, like might be to get bigger or other criminals involved in a thing that you might not ordinarily have access to. You can make a compelling public interest for a plea bargain on. Maybe you don't know if you'll be able to convict on those charges. So it's better for the public to get some kind of conviction or you, you can get them to roll on other people that are further up a criminal chain or have committed crimes that you wouldn't be able to get ordinarily without their cooperation, like those are. There are compelling public reasons why you would do a plea bargain here. This is just extorting somebody to follow your political agenda.
    (0:24:57)
  • Unknown C
    Thanks. Race for criminals. They're a magnet.
    (0:25:36)
  • Unknown D
    But the beauty here is that we're allowed to disagree, but we do agree on the fundamental that no matter who you are, it should be saved. So that's what people are missing. My life is sitting down with people I don't agree with 100% of the time. I don't agree myself 100% of the time. But when you, when Tom and I are in a room, we're both saying one thing. No matter who you are, if you're hurting innocent people in this city and in this country, you don't have a right to be in our country.
    (0:25:39)
  • Unknown E
    Well, here's the thing. You can disagree on things, but Tom has made it very clear that if a politician stands in the way of the federal government executing the law, they are going to bring charges against people like you. And in fact, we've seen the Attorney General, Pam Bondi, go after officials already.
    (0:25:58)
  • Unknown A
    So like just. I'm so sorry. There are so many bad. Remember what I said before, if you're trying to figure out like why people act the way they do, just look at the incentive structure. There are so many bad and horrible incent that have been created by this administration, fight with and kill federal officers because as long as it was in Trump's name, eventually he'll pardon you, lie, cheat, steal, intimidate witnesses like Roger Stone did on behalf of the President, because eventually he'll commute your sentence and then pardon you, steal from charities, do whatever the fuck you Want like Steve Bannon, it's okay. Eventually the President will pardon you, help him get elected, even if you're lying about receiving foreign funds like Paul Manafort. Doesn't matter. Eventually the President will pardon you. All the J6 protesters. I already mentioned that. And if you look like you're facing some kind of rough and weird shit, because people are right in chat.
    (0:26:10)
  • Unknown A
    Eric Adams was facing a lot of pressure to resign. Was he thinking from the start, maybe if Trump makes it, maybe I can go talk to him? Was that, like, always part of the plan? So if you do anything bad ever, where the feds are after you now, it's, well, fuck me, I guess it's time to go talk to. Talk to the D man. Talk to the big Donnie. Go and see what's up with him and see what he needs from me so that I can be safe now from the federal prosecution. That's, like, where all these people resigning instead of waiting to be fired and sue the DOJ for wrongful. I think that resigning actually might be the better call. I think it might send a stronger message, and it lets you resign on your terms rather than them kicking the can down the road, like, reassigning you or doing some bullshit and then eventually firing you years later.
    (0:26:58)
  • Unknown A
    Like, I think resigning might actually be the better choice. Thank. Didn't Adams also receive foreign money for some corrupt shit? Kind of, yeah. Well, it's even worse than that. My understanding, just through reading the indictment, it's even worse than that. I think that in. It's even worse than that. I think New York, either New York State or New York City has a law or not a law, but they've got, like, a public campaign finance thing that makes it so that if small donors donate to you, the city will match the funds in order to help it so that, like, smaller candidates have a chance. And it's supposed to help with corruption. Well, what Eric Adams was doing was he was basically getting it so that through some, like, weird Turkish guy who was also giving him favors, they got a bunch of, like, fake donations that were given in that the city matched funds for.
    (0:27:42)
  • Unknown A
    So he was scamming his own fucking city. Oh, he was scamming his own fucking city for fucking funding. Up to. I think Overall, he raised $10 million, so I don't know how much of that would have been just stolen from the city as a result. But it was bad stuff. If you want really good coverage of this, if you want to really know how fucked up his shit was, you can go and watch AJW's channel actual justice Warrior. Because when he's analyzing people he hates, he is incredibly critical. And Eric. Eric Adams is a Democrat. So Sean will actually give you like the full. The full smackdown on fucking everything that was going on with them because Eric Adams is Democrats. You can go watch his shit on it. He'll tell you everything. But this is just unbelievable.
    (0:28:28)
  • Unknown E
    Was that part of the conversation yesterday?
    (0:29:10)
  • Unknown C
    No, I think it needed to be. We talked very frankly about, first of all, getting the records island step one. That's the first step. We're working on some other things that we don't really want to talk about open air. Just because.
    (0:29:12)
  • Unknown A
    Does Adams have a chance of reelection? I don't know. I don't know how it works in New York. Would they prime the Democrats have to primary him? Well, we've gotten our first look at New York. I have no idea. I don't know. I don't know, like what the chance. I don't know if.
    (0:29:19)
  • Unknown C
    About the city council will be putting roadblocks upon us, but the mayor and me have committed to several other things to make the city safer. Further collaboration. Again, City council, I don't like them, I think. And Mayor Adams, he's dealing with these. A sanctuary law. Right. That you can't override.
    (0:29:32)
  • Unknown D
    Right.
    (0:29:48)
  • Unknown C
    So we're working on some things to work around some of these things.
    (0:29:48)
  • Unknown E
    You're being careful.
    (0:29:51)
  • Unknown C
    I've got to be very careful because the city council, they hate me. Right. The city council, they don't want immigration enforcement in the city. So we got to make sure that we collaborate in a smart way so we get more bad guys off the street.
    (0:29:52)
  • Unknown D
    That's the goal. You said something that's very interesting. You said that elected officials who are standing in a way, like me, let's be clear. I'm not standing in a way. I'm collaborating against so many others that don't want to collaborate.
    (0:30:00)
  • Unknown E
    Well, now you're collaborating.
    (0:30:07)
  • Unknown A
    Why is the federal government openly saying that if you don't play along, they'll sic the DOJ on you? Because they're authoritarian. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. Alyssa Smith in YouTube chat. What a great question. Because I did not bring that up. And that was a really good point. Because when Danielle R. Sassoon, the attorney in the Southern District of New York who was heading this case, when she said. When she wrote that thing that I had shown you, and she was like, hey, I can't do this. This is incredibly unethical. I'm going to resign. If you try to make me do this. Emile Bovey's response was second. You indicated that the prosecution team is aware of your communications with the Justice Department, is supportive of your approach, and is unwilling to comply with the order to dismiss the case. Accordingly, the AUSA's principally responsible. These are the assistant US attorneys principally responsible for this case are being placed on off duty administrative leave pending investigations by the Office of the Attorney General and the Office of Professional Responsibility, both of which will evaluate your conduct.
    (0:30:09)
  • Unknown A
    At the conclusion of these investigations, the Attorney General, Pam Bondi, will determine whether termination or some other action is appropriate. So you're not going to sign our bullshit motion to dismiss? We're going to investigate you. Oh, this is what I said yesterday. Why I'm sympathetic towards Joe Biden pardoning his family members. Yeah, fuck that. Why the fuck would you want these lunatics to be able to dig through somebody's life and try to find whatever the fuck they can to go out? This is insane.
    (0:31:10)
  • Unknown D
    But like I said, go back to spring of 2022. I was saying we need to get dangerous people off our street.
    (0:31:53)
  • Unknown E
    But it wasn't happening.
    (0:32:01)
  • Unknown D
    Is that true? We dropped crime in the city at remarkable level.
    (0:32:02)
  • Unknown E
    Did you help ICE in the level.
    (0:32:05)
  • Unknown D
    Of enforcement for criminal actions, yes. The law says, Eric, you cannot do it for civil enforcement, but for criminal actions, yes. The police department. We have. We have increased the number of officers assigned to our task force. Every morning we meet with our height of representatives of city, state and federal level. Public safety number one. I've always pursued this. Everyone know that's.
    (0:32:06)
  • Unknown B
    How are you.
    (0:32:24)
  • Unknown A
    How.
    (0:32:24)
  • Unknown B
    What is City council? What are they saying about you wanting to change the wording where we could go after the illegals, even if they're paying taxes, if they commit a crime? Because we. I saw Vicki Palladino. I know she's a New York City councilwoman, She's a Republican.
    (0:32:24)
  • Unknown A
    And then, Robert, can you explain the part in the letter that occurs, the Eric Adams deal with the Victor Bout exchange? She has that in her thing is he. He's the merchant of death, right? One of the things that Bovey brings up in his request for them to dismiss it. He says accomplishing the immigration objectives established by President Trump of the Attorney General is every bit as important, if not more so, as the objectives that the prior administration pursued by releasing violent criminals such as Victor Bout, the merchant of death. This was a trade. This was the arms dealer. Right. This was a trade between the United States government and the Russian government. This is one of the stupidest comparisons I think I've ever seen in my entire fucking life. Right. That's who the Victor Bow guy is, right? Yeah. It's just. Why would you even make that comparison?
    (0:32:33)
  • Unknown A
    This guy was. It's just. It's just. I can't. I can't even. I. I don't even know if I can explain why it's a bad comparison. Like, it's like saying that. That accomplishing the immigration objectives established by President Trump and the Attorney Generals, every bit as important, if not more so, as the objectives that your mom put forth when she told you that she wasn't gonna buy any more bananas and she was only gonna get you grapes and apples to eat from now on for lunch at school. I don't even know. I have no idea what the fuck this comparison is. Is like. It's just an insane comparison. Are we. I can't even. I can't even. I can't even. I can't even analyze this. I don't even know. It's just. It's just beyond stupid.
    (0:33:34)
  • Unknown B
    Holden is a moderate Democrat.
    (0:34:13)
  • Unknown D
    Both of them. If you were to talk to them about that change, they would tell you, we agree with Eric. But the overwhelming number of council members who have made it clear that they're not going to modify that law, I don't have.
    (0:34:15)
  • Unknown A
    Why?
    (0:34:23)
  • Unknown B
    What is their reason? Why would they. Why would they protect the criminal?
    (0:34:23)
  • Unknown D
    Well, I think that you look at many of the policies that I put in place, putting my anti Gun Union, 20,000 guns, we moved up the street, putting a thousand cops back in the subway system to bring down crime. All of these initiatives that I do around public safety, it's a constant fight with them. Because I think many people are articulating their personal reasons and not the feeling that the city has. 78% of New Yorkers stand with me, stand with what Tom is doing about getting these dangerous individuals.
    (0:34:25)
  • Unknown F
    But the problem is we don't know they're dangerous to the kill. Like that guy that put this woman on fire because she fell asleep on the subway. He didn't have a criminal. He didn't have a record. But after you lit up the women on fire, now he's a problem. He didn't belong here.
    (0:34:43)
  • Unknown D
    Same thing.
    (0:34:50)
  • Unknown F
    Lincoln Riley's killer, who was housed here, went to Georgia and killed. So even though you say, well, we want to be open to people, we don't know these guys are criminals until they act and then it's too late, then they become a problem. But if they never got here, they wouldn't be a problem.
    (0:34:51)
  • Unknown D
    That's what's Good. About what we're doing right now. What Tom, the borders are. Has done. I've said it over and over again. We need to control our borders and not allow people to come into the country, gang members coming into the country, people who are here to commit crime. I think what we witnessed the borders are. Has.
    (0:35:00)
  • Unknown A
    Trump and them are getting. They're getting annihilated in the courts right now. So we have to see how they respond, because there's been what. I think the USAID stuff has been injunctioned or at least temporary restraining ordered. The. The. The federal funding stuff. I think another order went out today saying, oh, no, no, today was usaid. We don't have a resolution yet on the pause on the federal funding free stuff. Right. The judge put out another thing saying, you guys aren't following the order that we already put out. I don't know. Yeah, they're getting. They're getting destroyed in the courts on this right now, but who knows how they'll respond to it.
    (0:35:13)
  • Unknown D
    Yeah, we have seen a substantial decrease in that flow.
    (0:35:51)
  • Unknown F
    Dom, you know, the nypd, how frustrated are they that they can't fully have your back? Be able to tell people, Tom, you know, the nypd, how frustrated are they that they can't fully have your back? Be able to tell people, okay, here's.
    (0:35:53)
  • Unknown A
    One thing that I want you to consider. Okay? And we also have to be careful. That guy emailed me on Zuckerberg, and I do agree, and this is. It's a hard thing. So it's so pathetic that not only Adams crawls back to these people, they keep humiliating him live on tv. While that's kind of true, unfortunately, you're now in a situation where in order to take a stand, you might have to legitimately be, like, super brave and understand that you might be looking at the destruction of your entire fucking life and nobody will care or help you or follow you afterwards. Like, that could just be a thing. So now we're at a point to where resisting the administration might start to look legitimately, incredibly fucking scary. I have a friend telling me this. I don't remember. I don't remember saying, I follow this much.
    (0:36:05)
  • Unknown A
    But, like, a judge literally found that Trump unlawfully retaliated via solitary punishment as a direct response to Cohen's book. But it meant nothing. He was held in solitary confinement for over a month. I didn't. I didn't even follow any of that. Was that true? So, I mean, like, you're in a scary world where now, if you don't follow the administration, there Might be like super real consequences for doing so. They're responding to the TSO. Temporary. I don't know what TSO means. I'm drafting articles. Impeachment for U.S. district Judge John McConnell Jr. Oh, nice. Representative from Georgia's 9th Congressional District. He's a partisan activist weaponizing our judicial system to stop President Trump's funding freeze on woke and wasteful government spending. We must end this abusive overreach. Stay tuned. I don't think that any of these guys can be impeached, though, because I think for a judicial, for a federal judicial impeachment, I think you need two thirds of the Senate and there's no shot that that happens.
    (0:36:46)
  • Unknown A
    Right. Who even does impeachment for this? I think it's the House and Senate process to impeach federal judge. Impeachment by the House and a trial and a conviction in the Senate. What judge finds Michael Cohen's return to prison Retaliatory orders his release. Cohen had refused to sign a form that would have barred him from speaking in public, including by publishing a book as Condition of Home Confinement for Are these for criminal charges? What? A federal judge Thursday ordered the release of Michael Cohen to home confinement, agreeing with his lawyers. He was wrongly sent back to prison after making public statements critical of President Donald Trump. After the longtime Trump fixer In Confidence in a book about his experiences working closely with the president would be published in the fall. In a statement, Cohen's lawyer, Daniel Perry, called the order of victory for the First Amendment. We appreciate that.

  • Unknown F
    Jesus will tell them exactly where these guys are. Be able to go into these raids with you.
    (0:39:01)
  • Unknown C
    Oh, they're frustrated. I mean, the NYPD wants to protect their streets, too, and they want to enforce the law and they want to collaborate with us. I don't think I met a single uniform in the four years I haven't come to the studio that sit out front. I shake everyone their hands. We had dinner with officers last night, not only from nypd, we had dinner with officers from Newark and from Philadelphia. We had a whole table full of officers that want to do the right thing. They want to collaborate with us. But I think yesterday's meeting, I came to New York City. I wasn't going to leave up nothing. I did the last time. I told him, I'm not leaving until I got something. And we got back into Rikers. That's huge. But we got other things we're working on, so I'm hoping. And now I got him on the couch in front of millions of people.
    (0:39:06)
  • Unknown C
    He gambling us now, right? So I think you're going to see things move in the right direction. I really believe that.
    (0:39:34)
  • Unknown D
    We don't want to skip the false impression that there's no collaboration around criminal justice. We collaborated with ICE to take down a very dangerous gang member who was trying to put grenades. Grenades in our city, brought with a gun. So there's real collaboration with Haida, our criminal justice apparatus, on a city, state and federal level. We want ICE to come and be a part of that meeting as well.
    (0:39:39)
  • Unknown E
    Mayor, let's talk a little bit about. You've been in the news all week. The Department of Justice dropped the criminal corruption charges against you. The U.S. attorney here in New York City, the Southern District, she quit yesterday. The acting U.S. attorney. And so did five members of the Department of Justice because they felt like being forced by the Department of Justice to drop the corruption charges was inappropriate and they should not have asked. And what she said was, she said you offered to help with the migration problem and the.
    (0:39:55)
  • Unknown A
    I'm surprised they're even bringing this up. Wow. Okay.
    (0:40:18)
  • Unknown E
    Immigration agenda in exchange for the case being dropped.
    (0:40:21)
  • Unknown D
    Think about that. Think about that. Think about my attorney, Alex Spirit, one of the. One of the top trial attorneys in the country. Imagine him going inside saying that the only way Mayor Adams is going to assist in immigration, which I was calling for, for since 2022, is if you drop the charges. That's quid pro quo. That's a crime.
    (0:40:24)
  • Unknown A
    The suggestion wasn't from your defense attorney, though. It was from Trump. It was from Bovey. It was from the doj.
    (0:40:48)
  • Unknown D
    It took her three weeks to report in front of her a criminal action. Come on, this is silly.
    (0:40:54)
  • Unknown E
    Right after.
    (0:40:59)
  • Unknown F
    We're not saved. They said when they. When they gave you. When they dropped the charges. It says it's not because we think he's innocent. It says we think that it affects elections, is going to affect his reelection. And we think that that was wrong.
    (0:41:00)
  • Unknown D
    I'm sorry.
    (0:41:09)
  • Unknown A
    I'm surprised they're bringing all this up. Damn. That is true. And that's kind of in the weeds on that one. That was like. I actually read the fucking document.
    (0:41:09)
  • Unknown F
    It says, we think it affects elections. It's going to affect his reelection. And we think that that was wrong.
    (0:41:18)
  • Unknown D
    I'm sorry, who's.
    (0:41:22)
  • Unknown F
    When the Department of Justice dropped the charges, they said it's not because he.
    (0:41:23)
  • Unknown A
    Keeps saying when they dropped the charges, but four hours ago, they hadn't dropped the charges. And whenever this air. They hadn't dropped the charges yet. But I still don't think. Technically, I don't know if that motion has been filed yet.
    (0:41:25)
  • Unknown F
    The charges were unjust or that you're innocent. But they were doing it with the charges they feel affected an election.
    (0:41:34)
  • Unknown D
    No, go. Go deeper into what they wrote. They articulated exactly weaponization. When you looked at legroom turning into bribery. Because I asked for a governmental entity to do a building inspection, we need to be clear on the root of all of this and a.
    (0:41:40)
  • Unknown A
    Pay attention to what he's saying right now. Hold on. So what he's saying right now is exactly what Ms. Sassoon said would happen. Hold on. Moreover, dismissing the case will amplify rather than abate concerns about weaponization of the department. He's saying, well, the department of. Was weaponized. Despite Mr. Bovey's observation that the directive to dismiss the case has been reached without assessing the strength of the evidence against Adams. Meaning Mr. Bovey said we're dismissing it without talking about the strength of the evidence. Adams has already seized on the memo to publicly assert that he's innocent and that the accusations against him were unsupported by the evidence and based only on fanfare and sensational claims, which is exactly what he's doing right here, right now.
    (0:41:55)
  • Unknown D
    When you looked at legroom turning into bribery. Because I asked for a governmental entity to do a building inspection, we need to be clear on the root of all of this. And the Turkish embassy exactly the, you know, main justice. I learned so much through this whole process. They review cases to determine moving forward or not. As my attorney articulated. Articulated at the heart of what I was being charged with as a mayor. I was the borough president at the time. Not say, pass someone can you do an inspection.
    (0:42:46)
  • Unknown B
    And, Tom, you're friends with the president, obviously, you came out of retirement, what, twice to go work for him and not making nearly as much money. Hope your wife's okay with that. But we appreciate you because you're fighting for this country and keep it up. But you talked to the president. The president was asked if. If this was quid pro quo, if he had anything to do with it, and he said he didn't.
    (0:43:13)
  • Unknown C
    No, I believe the president and did.
    (0:43:27)
  • Unknown A
    This guy flip side so Trump would help him.
    (0:43:30)
  • Unknown C
    Yes, the president's doing a great job. I want to say this. Look, I work for six presidents. I think President Trump's the greatest president my lifetime. He proves it every day. Every day. He proves to me why he is the greatest president my lifetime. Border numbers are down over 90% in three weeks.
    (0:43:31)
  • Unknown D
    Think about that.
    (0:43:43)
  • Unknown C
    You know, I worked hard at it. You know, Christine's working hard at it. You know, the chief of Trolley's working harder. It was President Trump's executive orders that was a game changer. Right. And we already got over six, almost 16,000 people. We rest in the interior. That's three times more than Joe Biden had a year from now. But it's not enough. We got to do more. But President Trump's leadership, when you, when you get 90% less people coming across the border, how many women are being raped by the cartels? How many children are drowning? How many, how many women, children are being sex trapped in this country? President Trump's a game changer. And every day, I've said, I'll say 100 times, every day, he proves to me why he's the greatest president my lifetime.
    (0:43:44)
  • Unknown E
    And you know, Tom, one of the reasons, in addition to not interfering with your election, one of the other things was they needed you to essentially assist Tom with the migration problem here in New York City.
    (0:44:10)
  • Unknown D
    And what does that look like? Are people didn't understand what that looks. What that looks like? What that looks like. As I say, every morning we meet with Hideout. Right. Federal, state, the city, law enforcement agencies, which.

    Exactly. That was another thing.
    (0:44:27)
  • Unknown E
    And that's good because as you know, Mayor, the way this particular case is being handled right now, they can, they can refile the charges at any time. If you don't help them, they could refile the charges. And we.
    (0:44:28)
  • Unknown D
    That's not what they said.
    (0:44:37)

    That's not what they can refile the charges.

    And what does that look like? Are people didn't understand what that looks. What that looks like. What that looks like. As I say, every morning we meet with Hideout. Right. Federal, state, the city, law enforcement agencies, which.

    And that's good because as you know, Mayor, the way this particular case is being handled right now, they can, they can refile the charges at any time. If you don't help them, they could refile the charges.

    They.
    (0:45:18)
  • Unknown C
    No.
    (0:45:18)
  • Unknown D
    Right. First of all, I don't get into the legalese. I have an attorney do that, and I pay a lot for that. What we need to be clear on, if the mayor of the city of New York is unable to collaborate, deal with intelligence information, sit down with my state and federal agencies and sit down to coordinate for public safety. We're still under terrorist threat. We still have an illegal gangs in our community that's bringing about destruction that ICE is attempting to weed out. If I can't coordinate that, that's a public safety issue and we should put public safety first.

    She has her role, I have my role. And throughout this entire ordeal, which I think no American should have to go through the torment of 15 months that my family and I had to endure for something I didn't do. I didn't do anything wrong. Throughout the entire ordeal, I said one thing. My attorney will handle the legal part. I'm going to handle running the city. We return jobs to our city. Our city's getting safer. We're building housing. I think that this is a great American narrative where I stood focused on what I was elected to do.

    Governor Hochul is an embarrassment. Position she holds. She stands on media after someone's burned alive on a subway. She stands in front of TV camera, says, I think criminal aliens should be removed too. But she's got the green light law. The men and women of ICE and Border Patrol, when they pull a vehicle, law enforcement, you're in law enforcement career, what's the first thing you're going to do? You run the license plate number. Are these wanted? Is there a warrant for these people who are there are the dangers. That car stolen. The position she holds. She stands on media after someone's burned alive on a subway. She stands in front of TV camera, says, I think criminal aliens should be removed too. But she's got the green light law. The men and women of ICE and Border Patrol, when they pull a vehicle over law enforcement, you're in law enforcement your whole career, what's the first thing you do?

    You run the license plate number. Are these wanted? Is there warrant for these people who are there? Are they dangerous? That car stolen, all these things, right? Do you know ICE and CBP can't run DMV data on New York state license plate, so they're pulling on people not even know who the hell they are.
    (0:46:36)
  • Unknown E
    Is that the green light law?
    (0:46:46)
  • Unknown C
    The green light law. So she on one states rights why.
    (0:46:47)
  • Unknown A
    Would New York State share that information? Why the fuck would a. Would an FBI. Why would I ever get pulled over by a fucking fed? Why the fuck would I ever want that to happen? What does Florida share that information? Why the fuck would any of my DMV information registered with the state of Florida. Where are my states rights conservatives at? Yeah, fuck you. Why the fuck. They shouldn't have to share that information with the. With the feds unless they want to. I guess there shouldn't have to be an obligation to share that data.
    (0:46:51)
  • Unknown C
    Point she's saying, well, I think criminals should be removed too. But then she locks us out of DMV data. That'd be like us locking officers out of ncic, the fed zone. Would we do that? No, because officer safety is paramount. She's putting the men and women ice at risk every day.
    (0:47:19)
  • Unknown A
    Wait, so local law enforcement has infinite access to all federal law enforcement databases? Is that the implication? I seriously doubt that's the case. I seriously doubt that the NYPD can go to the FBI and demand any information or demand access to any database they want unless they're doge.
    (0:47:29)
  • Unknown C
    The job's already dangerous. So Governor Hochul. She needs to be removed. Every needs to be removed needs to be heard. She supports sanctuary.
    (0:47:45)
  • Unknown F
    The only one who thinks she's doing a good job. She's an embarrassment. I talked to be impartial on that, Mr. Mayor.
    (0:47:51)
  • Unknown B
    Thank you. The migrant shelter, it's this called a mega migrant shelter that's gonna be built in the Bronx. We interviewed a representative from the Bronx and he said he talks to everyone on the street. Not one person wants that facility built. What's the status on that? Is there any movement?
    (0:47:55)
  • Unknown D
    That's a great. That's a great. You know, it's interesting. If I go to anywhere in the city when I had 220,000 migrants here, anywhere in the city and ask who would like a shelter there, not one elected would raise a hand. And then you ask him the next question. How many of you went to Washington D.C. in the previous administration and said, you need to stop this? I took 10 trips there. So you cannot represent your concern merely from the sterilized environment of your office space. They should have been with us saying, we need to stop this flow, and they weren't. And so the shelters have to go somewhere.
    (0:48:06)
  • Unknown E
    Well, how long is the federal government going to be paying for the Roosevelt Hotel or any of these other sanctuary hotels?
    (0:48:31)
  • Unknown D
    We're continuing to close them down because of the job that we did. 180,000 out of our system. We closed down Floyd Benfield. So one at a time, no more than one at a time. We have to close down as the population decreases. We put in place a 30 and 60 day plan. No one can stay longer than because.
    (0:48:36)
  • Unknown F
    Your president that you were working for and work for his reelection let that happen and didn't take your phone calls when you asked for help.
    (0:48:50)
  • Unknown D
    100% he out. So you're going to have a decision. That's a good point.
    (0:48:56)
  • Unknown C
    Well, the days of, the days of the federal government paying the migration centers are over.
    (0:48:59)
  • Unknown A
    Good.
    (0:49:02)
  • Unknown F
    So Mr. Mayor.
    (0:49:03)
  • Unknown D
    Yes.
    (0:49:04)
  • Unknown F
    You're going to run for re election.
    (0:49:04)
  • Unknown D
    Yes.
    (0:49:05)
  • Unknown F
    Are you considering running as a Republican?
    (0:49:05)
  • Unknown D
    I'm going to run on the Democratic line. We petitioning to start it starting soon. Running as a Democrat. There's many Democrats like you. Look at those 70% that believe what we do. What nice is doing by contagious people out. I think that we have to get people out to vote. That is the problem.
    (0:49:07)
  • Unknown F
    But you're losing by about 25 points to former Governor Cuomo who wants to be mayor.
    (0:49:20)
  • Unknown C
    Cuomo.
    (0:49:24)
  • Unknown D
    Well listen, listen to this. I had another Andrew in my previous race. He was beating me by double digits in February. But we don't call Andrew Yang mayor. We call Eric Adams mayor. Never give up New Yorkers. Never give up. People had me gone months ago. But you know what? I'm sitting on your couch.
    (0:49:24)
  • Unknown E
    You are sitting today talking about the new alliance between ICE and Adams. So thank you very much for coming.
    (0:49:38)
  • Unknown D
    Thank you. The alliance was never severe.
    (0:49:43)
  • Unknown C
    And if he doesn't come true, if he doesn't come true, I'll be back in New York City and we won't be sitting on a couch. I'll be in his office up his butt saying where the hell is the agreement we came to.
    (0:49:45)
  • Unknown D
    So and I want ICE to deliver. We're going to deliver for the safety of the people.
    (0:49:55)
  • Unknown A
    Okay. So I'm going back to that 18 second clip. It's that's, it's even worse watching the full context of this city.
    (0:49:59)
  • Unknown D
    Let's focus on every American in New Yorker should have the right to have an opportunity and survive in this city.
    (0:50:06)
  • Unknown F
    We're going to hold you to that American first. Thank you. Doing a fantastic job.
    (0:50:12)
  • Unknown E
    Thank you, thank you.
    (0:50:15)
  • Unknown D
    Thank you guys.
    (0:50:16)
  • Unknown B
    So nice to have this collaboration. Different sides of the aisle.
    (0:50:17)
  • Unknown C
    In Chicago, you're in everything. But we agree on the public safety.
    (0:50:20)
  • Unknown D
    That's right, Mr. Mayor.
    (0:50:23)
  • Unknown E
    Thanks for Czar. Thank you very much, so much. It's 8:00 here in New York City and there you can see, guys, we're going to talk about that as you quietly leave the studio. Tom, thank you very much. Thank you very much. So that what you're looking at right there, that is the meeting that happened. Hey, Tom, while you're right here.
    (0:50:24)
  • Unknown F
    Okay.
    (0:50:40)
  • Unknown E
    Describe that meeting, what we're seeing. What was that meeting like? Mayor Adams?
    (0:50:41)
  • Unknown F
    Put the picture up.
    (0:50:44)
  • Unknown E
    Put the picture back up. Describe that. There you are at ICE headquarters. What was going on in that picture?
    (0:50:44)
  • Unknown D
    Well, we had my deputy mayor, Tiffany Raspberry, Intergovernmental Affairs Deputy Mayor, Chauncey Parker, longtime law enforcement expert. He was explaining to us what are the various things at times, what was.
    (0:50:49)
  • Unknown E
    The temperature in the room?
    (0:51:00)
  • Unknown C
    It was actually cordial. I mean, Chauncey never met the man before, but he's old school. He was talking about things.
    (0:51:01)
  • Unknown A
    I don't remember. I don't know who this is. Which guy this is. Do you think the guy on the left here looks a little bit like Rawls from the Wire? Over here on the left a little bit. Yeah, I think so. I think so. I think so. I think so. Wait, we have some. I see it's in chat. Hold on. If he loses the 2025 election, will they throw him to the wolves and prosecute again? Probably not. As long as he plays ball. No, as long as he's doing a good job now, I don't think they'll go after him because you have to send a signal that as long as you're willing to cooperate, we're not going to go after you. If they go after him, then nobody be willing to cooperate. It's like that pirate video that CGP Grey made. The closest you've ever gotten in a comparison.
    (0:51:08)
  • Unknown A
    Oh, my God. Oh, fuck you guys. Hold on. 45. You know what? I take that. Have the charges actually been dropped yet? No, although it's being reported as of like 15 minutes ago that they might have found somebody who is willing to file the motion to drop the charges, to dismiss the charges. So I guess we'll wait and see. Unless it's an epic troll. Well, Piers Morgan uncensored destiny screaming. We didn't even go back and forth shouting at each other that much on this.
    (0:51:55)
  • Unknown C
    Things that I did back in the 80s when immigration was here in New York City. So we actually. Some of the ideas came up with are old school ideas that Chauncey wasn't wearing. We bring our state. How'd you know about that? I forgot about that.
    (0:52:37)
  • Unknown F
    You remember about your days at Studio 54?
    (0:52:47)
  • Unknown C
    If anybody's got a seat cushion, I'LL be real quiet.
    (0:52:50)
  • Unknown D
    Ok?
    (0:52:52)
  • Unknown E
    All right, guys. Thank you very much.
    (0:52:53)
  • Unknown A
    All right.
