Adams Accuses 'Snake' Cuomo of Trying To Push Him Out

Speculation that Eric Adams was seriously mulling an end to his reelection campaign for mayor reached a fever pitch this week amid recent reporting that the Trump administration was discussing a potential role for Adams in the federal government in exchange for his exit. But in a fiery press conference on Friday evening, Adams insisted he's staying in the race and took direct aim at his closest competitors, particularly former governor Andrew Cuomo - who he alleged was "a snake and a liar" - as well as Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani.
