‘Despicable’: Immigration activists fume at blue city mayor’s meeting with Trump border czar

New York immigration activists are slamming an upcoming meeting between New York City Mayor Eric Adams and incoming border czar Thomas Homan, calling it "despicable."

Adams will meet with Homan on Thursday afternoon. Adams had said that he wants to sit down with Homan and talk about cooperation on deporting violent criminals specifically. Homan has repeatedly said that public safety threats will be the priority for the expected mass deportation campaign. Adam Shaw is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital, primarily covering immigration and border security.

"I’m not going to be warring with this administration, I'm going to be working with this administration," Adams said last week. "President Trump is the president-elect. And whomever he chooses to run his agencies. I'm looking forward to sitting down and see how do we better New York." He can be reached at adam.shaw2@fox.com or on Twitter.

"I would like to speak with our border czar and find out what his plans are. Where our common grounds are, we can work together. And I strongly believe, my history is sitting down with those across the aisle with different ways of thinking and sit down and share my ideas," he said. "I believe I have some ideas that could deal with this issue, and we can reach what the American people have been saying to us: Secure our borders, address the people who are committing violent acts in our country and make sure that … our citizens are going to be safe."
