Daily Beast senior editor Harry Siegel warns Democrats are "toast" if New York City Mayor Eric Adams doesn't deliver on reversing crime surge.
Adams, a retired NYPD captain, ran for mayor with an agenda to reverse the dangerous trend. He has painted himself as a contrast to his predecessor Bill de Blasio, whose relationship with the city's law enforcement was strained throughout his tenure. For instance, Adams announced he would be reinstating the plainclothes anti-gun unit that de Blasio had disbanded. The units are expected to focus on the 30 precincts where 80% of violence occurs.
"New Yorkers feel as if a sea of violence is engulfing our city," Adams said at City Hall Monday. "But as your mayor, I promise you, I will not let this happen. We will not surrender our city to the violent few. Gun violence is a public health crisis. There’s no time to wait. We must act."
