‘Cancel Me’: Eric Adams Says He Would ‘Love’ To Discuss Deporting Criminals With Trump Border Czar

Democratic New York City Mayor Eric Adams said Tuesday that he is prepared to sit down with incoming border czar Tom Homan to discuss deporting illegal immigrants who have committed crimes.

Adams, who been grappling with the soaring migrant crisis in New York City, said he is prepared to work alongside President-elect Donald Trump’s incoming administration to tackle the rising crime rates committed by illegal immigrants. He brushed off any concerns regarding the political left’s outrage at his willingness to deport dangerous individuals residing in his city.

“Those who are here committing crimes, robberies, shooting at police officers, raping innocent people, have been a harm to our country, I want to sit down and hear the plan on how we’re going to address them,” Adams said. “Those are the people I am talking about and I would love to sit down with the border czar and hear his thoughts on how we’re going to address those who harm our citizens. You know what’s interesting, and I was talking to the team the other day, I want you to go back and google Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Google what they said about those who commit crime in our city and what they said in our country. They said ‘those who commit crimes need to get out right away.’ That was their position, so this is not a new position.”

“Because in the era of cancel culture, no one’s afraid to be honest about the truth. Well, cancel me, because I’m going to protect the people of this city. And if you come into this country and this city and think you’re going to harm innocent New Yorkers and innocent migrants and asylum seekers, this is not the mayor you want to be in the city under,” the mayor continued.

Homan, who served as the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) director in 2017 and 2018, intends to carry out Trump’s mass deportation plan in a “humane manner” and vowed to run “the biggest deportation operation” in U.S. history. He said in recent interviews that his deportation efforts will initially target those who pose a risk to public safety.
