Because it's not about a housing shortage...it's about feeding Big Real Estate

If the NYC City Council wanted every single homeless person off the street and into an apartment, that shyt would get done in about a few months

But it's not about that, it's about mega developers and their promises of campaign money into the coffers of local pols with dreams of reelection or higher office

this guy is all out of ideas, he was never suited for this job. he wanted to coast on the pre-pandemic way the city functioned didn't plan to make waves with big policy changes, he's not the future.
Wrong

He wanted to coast on the pandemic way the city functioned, while making small adjustment in the ways that shythead DeBlasio did things

SPOILER: DumbBlasio was a hated Mayor, is still a hated Mayor, and now the dumbass Eric Adams does'nt know what to do because he tried to over promise on shyt that had no chance of being done, and continue things that were instituted by a despised Mayor who pretended to want to please everyone but really only did his best to appease gentrifiers and faux socialists.

Smarter NYers (such as myself) warned you what was coming but many believed that because he was Black or because he was seen hanging out and looking like a normal citizen, OR that because he CLAIMED to be Vegan that he was suited to be mayor

SURPRISE!!!!

No he got in because he is the rare politician who actually pays what he owes to people who get into his presence. The political class (and their donors) loved him and he got a shyt ton of co-signs. He’s a Andrew Koch with the inflated ego and quickness to point fingers at others but with an actual political machine behind him.

You are right about him wanting to come in and emulate deBlasio but give deBlasio some credit he was at least good at hiring smart people who thought he would give them a chance to do some amazing stuff for the social good. Outside of the people in charge of appeasing the real estate developer’s deBlasio hired some good people.

Adam’s hiring record is based one what he does best, paying back favors.

I get it, but at the same time don't folks want cops calling out other cops for this type of vile behavior instead of standing behind the shield and waxing poetic about how hard the job is?

She led to one of the most symbolic moments of civil disobedience in my early adulthood.

I haven't really kept up with he much recently, but I hope she's still advocating for people to take action.

If he's saying this, then folks need to make him make a commitment to match his words.

Eric Adams
Streetsblog is a gentrifier incubation blog

Tell them to tell Citibike to get the fukk from under the BQE so that residents who used to use that area as overflow for ASP can do so again

Also fukk Crystal Hudson...identity politics hack who uses Black people as cover for the things she does in this neighborhood on behalf of CACs and colonizers

snippet:
Just weeks later, Eric Adams, a former NYPD captain, swept into the mayor’s office promising a pro-law enforcement agenda that included supporting the old guard that had long decided how things ran on the island. Adams replaced the reform-minded jails commissioner Vincent Schiraldi with his own pick, Louis Molina, whose administration immediately pushed out top department leaders supportive of the LGBTQ+ unit and shelved a draft policy directive aimed at getting more trans and gender-nonconforming detainees into gender-aligned housing.

This institutional reversal has stranded numerous trans and gender-nonconforming detainees in dangerous, male housing units for weeks or months on end, subjecting many to egregious forms of physical and sexual violence, according to dozens of internal emails, Department of Correction records, and interviews with more than 20 people who work or live in city jails, including current and former corrections staffers, incarcerated trans women, jail guards and attorneys.
