New York Mayor Eric Adams has announced he is dropping out of the race just over a month before election day. In recent weeks President Trump and New York business leaders pressured Adams to drop out of the race in an effort to help boost the campaign of disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo, who is running as an independent. We get response from Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani. Tune in Monday for the full interview.

Adams is, apparently, going to take the bribe of a high-paying federal job from Donald so that Cuomo and the fascists can team up to try and defeat a livable city for the working class.

No doubt Adams will be in a position to monetize said federal job by taking a fuck-ton of bribes too.

Awesome.

Did the Republican candidate drop out yet to endorse Cuomo?
