New York Metropolis Mayor Eric Adams introduced Thursday that he’s operating for reelection as an unbiased—simply someday after a federal choose dismissed his pending corruption case.

In an unnecessarily lengthy video posted on X Thursday, Adams claimed that regardless that 25,000 residents had signed his Democratic petition, the “bogus” case towards him “dragged on too long,” making it unimaginable to mount a severe marketing campaign in what certainly would’ve been a brutal main election for him.

“New Yorkers are strong, and they deserve strong leadership. There isn’t a liberal or conservative way to fix New York. But there is a right way and a wrong way,” he mentioned.

Adams continued to ramble on, insisting that he’s “not a quitter” and in some way nonetheless considers himself a Democrat, regardless of taking the straightforward method out by operating as an unbiased within the upcoming normal election.


In one other signal of their rising closeness, Mayor Eric Adams was seen at President Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20.

“I firmly believe that this city is better served by truly independent leadership,” Adams mentioned, earlier than providing a imprecise half-apology. 

“I know that the accusations leveled against me may have shaken your confidence in me and that you may rightly have questions about my conduct. And let me be clear, although the charges against me were false, I trusted people I should not have, and I regret that,” he mentioned.

First elected in 2021, Adams was indicted in September 2024 on expenses of bribery, conspiracy, wire fraud, and two counts of illegally soliciting a marketing campaign contribution from a international nationwide. 

However in February, President Donald Trump’s Division of Justice abruptly dropped the case, arguing that prosecuting Adams would intervene along with his means to control—and, extra tellingly, his means to assist Trump perform his mass deportations.

Now, free of authorized bother, Adams is shifting to assault mode. 

With out naming names, he took veiled pictures at his opponents, telling voters to examine their data, as some had “advocated against more people, even if they are for them now,” “sought to limit housing production,” or “sat at home and did absolutely nothing.” 

His final comment appeared like a transparent dig at former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo, a Democrat who’s main in most polls.

Adams’s announcement throws an already chaotic race into overdrive. Within the deep-blue NYC, the June Democratic main is often seen as the actual contest, with the winner all however assured victory in November as Democrats outnumber Republicans by six to 1.

However determined to cling to energy, Adams is attempting to sidestep that actuality along with his run as an unbiased. So if Cuomo wins the Democratic main, it may arrange a high-stakes showdown between the 2 this fall.

A marketing campaign aide instructed CNN that Adams is on monitor to submit the three,750 signatures wanted by the top of Could to safe a spot on the November poll. This buys him time to persuade voters he’s price holding round—however he’s obtained a steep hill to climb.

A March Knowledge for Progress ballot had Cuomo main amongst doubtless Democratic main voters with 39%, adopted by New York State Rep. Zohran Mamdani, who netted 15% of voters. Adams was in a distant fourth place with simply 7% assist.

Even his opponents aren’t shopping for Adams’ newest ploy. 

In an unique interview with Politico, Adams insisted that he nonetheless has a “solid base” of assist exterior of Manhattan, significantly amongst ethnic minorities. However whether or not that’s sufficient to beat the stench of scandal and ties to Trump stays to be seen.

“I’m in the race to the end. I’m not running on the Democratic line. It’s just not realistic to turn around my numbers and to run a good campaign [from] where we are right now. It hurts like hell,” he mentioned.

what else hurts like hell? Watching Adams pull low cost election stunts to hold onto a job he’s clearly not needed in. Some individuals simply don’t know when to give up.
