Mayor Eric Adams reiterates he is only beholden to New Yorkers, still in re-election race

[RandySF]

NEW YORK (WABC) -- New York City Mayor Eric Adams is doubling down, saying he is still on the job, and still in the race for re-election, despite calls for him to resign or do more to prove that he can be effective at a time when voters struggle to trust his motives as the Trump Administration looks for cooperation while moving to have Federal charges against Adams dropped, at least for now.

Mayor Adams was at church in Queens on Sunday and reiterated that he is only beholden to New Yorkers and believes he has a mission to finish one supported by a higher power.

This comes as several Federal prosecutors have resigned over the Trump Department of Justice's motion to dismiss bribery charges against the mayor, including the acting U.S. attorney for the Southern District who could have made the decision to drop them but instead stepped down.

Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee in Albany have meanwhile have requested an investigation into the Attorney General Pam Bondi's handling of the Adams case.
