New York City's Mayor: The Eric Adam's Files

You're listening to Comedy Central.

Now New York City, it's King Kong's favorite place to pole dance. For most of the country, election season isn't happening until next year, But for America's biggest and most Apple like city, the mayoral election is already in full swing, and there's no shortage of candidates trying to fill build the Blasio's freakishly large shoes.

Now the race to become the next and one hundred and tenth mayor of New York City.

A large and diverse group running for the open seat mayor to Blasi, of course, is term limited.

Entrepreneur Andrew Yang joins a big field that includes Burrough President Eric Adams.

And if you want a sense of Adams's general vibe, well this will give you a pretty good idea.

Eric Adams has yet to comment on a video from twenty eleven where he shows parents how to search their homes for any illegal items their children might bring in.

No one can state that you can't search a rule in your own home. You write the Constitution. There are no First Amendment rights inside your Householme, you can look in the jewelry box. A jewelry box of this nature. Maybe a simple jewelry box, but if you look through it closely, you don't know what.

Your child may be hiding.

For instance, a gun could be hitten when your child bring in his popular knapsack, but many different locations look through it to see what exactly is your child carrying. In addition to a book, something simple as a crackpipe or use crackpipe behind a pitchure frame. You could find bullets. Just look and see what's inside your bookcases. It could be more than just books. Perfect place to hide a

Holy shit, who is this kid? El Choppo's long lost son?

Yo?

Let me tell you something. If I went through my kid's bedroom and I found all that stuff, I would not confront them about it. Yeah, I'd go to my spouse like, yo, baby, we got to move out of the house. As soon as he leaves, we move to another country, we start a new life. This kid is not playing.

But if this.

Video shows one thing about Eric Adams, it's that he is thorough as hell. I half expected him to be like, don't forget to look everywhere. Even a mayor old candidate can be a great place to hide drugs. Now, Eric Adams has been surging recently, and in part this is because of his tough on crime approach, which is appealing in a city where shootings have soared eighty three percent in the past year. Also, Mayor Adams is a vegan. Oh yeah, no, I thought he was black, I know.

You know.

Oh you're excited for the weekend. How about a tofu sandwich. Now, obviously because of this decision, a lot of people are mad. Like a lot of people are mad.

You have to eat meat or it's not a meal.

But if you ask me, there's nothing wrong with kids being exposed to different kinds of foods and different kinds of diets. And yeah, I'm talking about you kids with peanut allergies. Stop being so close minded. So, yeah, schools in New York are going to serve vegan food on Fridays, partly because the mayor himself is vegan, well is he.

It's a big city scandal.

In New York. Mayor Eric Adams is making waves.

With the revelation that he eats fish.

Adams is a self proclaimed vegan.

A report in Politico New York over the weekend cited restaurant sources at a midtown eatery frequented by the mayor.

Who say Adams often dines on fish.

He released a statement saying, I want to be a role model for people who are following or aspire to follow a plant based diet.

But as I said, I am perfectly imperfect and have occasionally eaten fish.

Okay, everybody calm down. Everybody calm down. I can feel the stress in the room right now. Everybody calmed down. I know you're angry right now, and I know you want him to step down. But give the man a chance.

Yes, he's a vegan who sometimes eats fish, but don't get a twisted man. Being a vegan isn't about eating vegan. It's about telling everybody that you're vegan. So technically, this man's legit, and that is what's great about New York. We're imperfect here, We're perfectly imperfect. You can label yourself whatever you want in New York. Whether it's true or not, it doesn't matter.

You know.

That's why the vegan mayor isn't vegan, and that's why the New York Jets can call themselves.

A football team.

You know, if you ask me, the weird thing to me is not that he cheats occasionally on his veganism. It's the fact that his cheat meal is fish. I mean, if you're gonna cheat, cheat, my man, cheat, eat a cheeseburger or pepperoni pizza. Eating fish as your cheap meal is I getting a whole post from your spouse and using that whole post to have sex with a fish. It's a total waste of a whole posse and a fish.

Let's kick things off with a big problem facing New York City right now. Mister met started in only fans. I had no ideas balls had balls. But there's another issue that's even more of a crisis for New York the influx of migrants. Okay, every week thousands are arriving in the city, and now Mayor Eric Adams is taking a break from the club to figure out.

What to do with them.

Mayor Eric Adams is now looking for new shelter locations, including outdoor spaces, in tents and other temporary shelters. Now, the mayor says, the city is just out of room. City officials say they are trying to re ticket and encourage migrants to go elsewhere. The mayor says he wants to convene a roundtable discussion with city officials, the public, and even the media. At this point, he says if anyone has any better ideas what they can do, he says he wants to hear them.

If you have some good ideas for us on how to manage the situation, I am begging for your ideas.

No, no, our ideas. That's not how this works, okay. Our idea was to elect you to handle this all right. Imagine a doctor asking, hmm, what do you think your kidneys need?

Now?

I get crowdsourcing for fun stuff like who should be on a new stamp or you know, what should the state flower be? But you're asking random people from Staten Island and the Bronx. Okay for ideas on how to handle immigrants. That's not gonna end well, Eric Adams has New York is all wrong. New Yorkers give you opinions, not ideas. It's always q asshole, okay, it's never signal before you turn next time, asshole?

All right?

And what buz me is?

Eric Adams was very progressive on immigration when it wasn't a problem in New York, Okay, when it was only Texas dealing with it. He was like, we need to open our hearts to the migrants now that they're coming to New York. He's like, build a wall o. What it all comes down to is a lot of people are progressive in theory until they get tested. Half the people who want to boce the police the moment they get robbed, they calling nine one one, like send me your most racist cop.

All right, let's kick things off with our old friend hashtag me too.

Remember her?

Yeah.

Last year, New York passed a new law that gave people a one year window to file lawsuits for sexual assault that otherwise would have been pasted the statute the Statute of Limitations. Last weekend was the deadline, and boy did the lawsuits come.

Rolling in the Mayor of New York is accused of sexually assaulting a woman thirty years ago in a new court filing. The woman alleges that she was sexually assaulted by defending Eric Adams in nineteen ninety three. The woman filed her claim just before the midnight expiration of New York's Adult Survivors Act. The temporary law signed last year by Governor Kathy Hochel allows adult sexual misconduct accusers to file lawsuits that previously would have been barred by the statute of limitations.

But like, why is there a deadline for rape victims?

You know?

Right after Thanksgiving?

Too?

Makes me feel a little like the greasiest Black Friday email ever. A's fast, you only have two hours to get justice for the worst day of your life. File a lots to today and receive a free tote?

So yosa is qua asking the mayor and real politicians real questions that the real niggas want to know.

So with that said, when exactly did they take prayers out the classroom in New York City?
