  1. Mayor Adams says how proactive the police are but they werent they dropped the ball first on Thanksgiving … the protests actually got larger. What a phoney baloney!

  2. Eric Adams you need to stop lying crime is up in New York stop it with your shenanigans you they going to kick you out anyway so you not doing a good job you're lying crime is down you liar it is not crime is up and it's going to get worser and you going to be out anyway cuz they sick of you you don't spend all the taxpayer money on the goddamn on immigrants get your behind

  3. Can the migrant problem be attributed to the Baptist missionaries having relations in foreign countries

  4. NYC homeless dying in the streets !! Who are the employees stealing the money ?

  5. Everything that comes out of this pathetic woke activist's mouth is a lie

  6. NEW SICKNESSES TERRORIST CARTELS CRIMINALS ENTERING THE COUNTRY YOUR FAMILIES ARE IN DANGER DONT CRY IF YOUR KID GETS SICK OR KIDNAPPED YOU VOTED FOR BIDEN

  7. Mayor Adams makes things worst than they already are, smh.

  8. What human type creatures have you created there.

  9. What is discrimination? I feel sorry for those migrants that came into our country the right way, hire attorneys, pay lots of money just to enter legally and become residents.

  10. Where's my money. I'm beyond pissed

  11. The mayors comments are so funny, we know how to handle large crowd security😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
    They can’t even stop daily mob robbery.

  12. Does anyone really care what happens in a communist state 🤔 Don't think so 🤪🇺🇲

  13. New York is the most unsafe city. Don’t go people don’t go.

  14. I am not going there. I am staying away from crowds with how many have been crossing the US border. Enjoying the new year safe at home. No amount of security can prevent things 100%. Open borders is totally not safe and Biden has allowed it. Biden should be Impeached for not fulfilling his constitutional duty to protect and defend the constitution. He committed a high crime for allowing people crossing illegally into the US. Even Obama said, “As President, I have often said that I have no greater responsibility than protecting the American people,” wrote President Obama.

  15. I hate the new York city area and the morally bankrupt 😢mentality of the culture there. I watched as a friend dove headlong into sex work because Covid hit, gig work and SAG work became scarce, and she felt compelled to maintain her extravagant standard of living by any means possible. This could happen anywhere I know, but I blame the Liberal mentality for her moral decline. New Yorkers are by enlarge a very broken form of human marcissist with little compassion and no moral fortitude. Crime is high right now in the Big Apple, Mayor Adams is lying.

  16. Man, I sure hope those 161,000 unvetted New Yorkers that just got there in the past year all have good intentions.

  17. Sending prayers up right now for something no one is talking about.. there is another mystery bug that has supposedly originated from China and is here now in several states that is causing illness worse than COVID. I am praying the area hospitals in NYC and Chicago do not become overwhelmed this winter with all the cases of Flu and whatever else that is to come with the huge number of migrants that are now residing in these areas. Something needs to be done asap. God please be with the people of NYC and Chicago and with us all through these tribulant times and bless us and protect us all in your holy name Amen 🙏

  18. When this is shared with the masses it decreases security. I don't get why you would share the plan of 'security," w the world

  19. Here, have a few obiden busses to calm your fears

  20. I guess he doesn’t trust his illegals! Who would wanna go to that dumpster

  21. He’s going to hand out lollipops to Palestinian protesters

  22. Wheres the robot cops. Knightscope. Need thise things patrolling.

  23. At the same time *Classify* the apartments that's about to fall on people .

  24. Do not go to new years in New York city. Im serious. Too much murdering has happened in Palestine. 22,000 Women's and children's are killed . And still killing. Im just saying 🤷

  25. All the security on the streets, but did anyone check the sewers?

  26. What a sad world they have created. Fear to attend an event that use to be a joyous event. I wouldn’t go there if you paid me a billion dollars. What a shame.

  27. I’m sure all the border invaders are excited for the new year

  28. I guess grammar is out the window in today’s press conferences. Enjoy the implosion New York, you elected it.

  29. I was applauding for Mayor Adams until he lied at the end about the crime rate😂

  30. This entire city to state is a FAILURE!

  31. Mayor Adams is not a serious mayor,the chaos he creates and ignores displays a do nothing attitude.

  32. I ❤ new york. Thanks Mr. Mayor.

  33. Send even more buses carrying migrants to celebrate the new year with New Yorkers!🎉

  34. Plenty of illegals to add to security team. Good luck NYC.

    🤡🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

  35. What’s the point of security when you’re letting all the illegal migrants in the country from all over the world. How many of those could be terrorists?

  36. Sanctuary cities have ruined New Year’s Eve.

  37. How about not ask people to spend all thers money in your dump hole of a city. People dont have money right now. Just be happy that people are even coming there. Half wit!!!!

  38. Times square needs security this year and the places next to Times Square and it ain’t the safest place in the world no we’re is

  39. Meanwhile behind the scenes hundreds of Persons Of Interest have been visited by the FBI

  40. You will know no peace until Palestine is free. You will know how Gazans feel

  41. Security shouldn't be a problem at all. As far as the "migrants" are concerned, all the local gangs are running for their lives. 🏃🏃🏃🤣

  42. I hate to say this but I think this is the year that the bullshit happens. 🎉🎉🎉🎉 GOOD LUCK IN FEAR CITY

  43. Hope they bring in guard, major pro Hamas protestors will surely be present, right??
