of course not, he's now trump's bitch

Called it. Kathy Hochul is a republican. She hates democrats and has been incapable of doing the right thing at every turn.

WTH?🙄

All part of the plan. Folks need to get informed, organized, and active asap before it’s too late. Learn their agenda so we can counter it.

oh my fucking gooood i am begging you to be useful one time lmao

Well that a damn shame!

Coward.

What the HELL @kathyhochul.bsky.social?! You’ve got a compromised mayor running NYC! Good grief!

Another Dem loser addicted to losing.

Go fuck yourself Kathy

Oh, great. Another Democrat who just looks weak. 🤦

It's become very clear that Dems are now showing themselves to be just as cowardly as the GOP in checking corruption. So I guess most of the powerful and/or wealthy are free to commit crimes with no consequences.

I know, I block.

Did she get death threats like Tillis did? #corruptamerica

Lame. Democrats are hell vent on losing in an effort to play both sides.

They both need to go

What I’ve learned about the Democrats this past election. They fit one of these areas: • Complicit and comfortable with their position of power. • Don’t want to lose their massive donations from their donors. • Total coward and doesn’t want to rock the boat. • Most likely NOT a Democrat.

Can't say I'm surprised.

Weak

You're a criminal, compromised, bribe taking scumbag...but I'll be watching you! Ooooo so scary.

@govkathyhochul.bsky.social, uhm, he has already been indicted for breaking the law, are you going to pardon him, too? What does Eric Adams have on Kathy Hochul? Americans are all corrupt. Stay the hell out of Canadian politics and Canada. #cdnpoli @maddow.msnbc.com @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com

This country is addicted to never holding its public officials to account. It's disheartening.

No backbone!

of course she is as useless as he

Are you bleeping kidding me?

Calling her a coward doesn't really understand her options. The power has never been used. she cant just remove him. Its a complicated process thats untested, would involve a state "trial" where clear guidelines don't even exist, Adams gets to mount a full defense & appeals would take a long time

I knew she was going to pull this 💩! They both need to go!!!

profoundly disappointing

Quislings everywhere. It would be nice if someone in addition to AOC would show a willingness to fight fascists.

New York Democrats continue to set the bar for being absolutely useless at all times during a crisis

Absolutely spineless.

democrat refuses to fight back against fascist takeover, what else is new

New rules, because he broke the existing rules, and Trump made sure all rules don’t apply. Yep, sounds like no plan at all.

Cause Adams is awesome at following the law that’ll help

Weak!

soft!

He's compromised by Trump. Oversight while he allows ICE into schools and neighborhoods? Not sure that is corrupt. What does oversight do for Adam's cooperation w/ Trump agenda during 2025? The corruption already allegedly occurred.

I always love announcing at work that I’m not going to do my job

Another weak, pathetic dem

She is weak.

Follow the chain of corruption

I'm sure he has "learned his lesson".

Portraits of cowardice

Hochul is set to announce she is a coward

We really need to do a better job in choosing our leaders. Maybe we need to revamp the system.

Pathologically incapable of doing the right thing

Oh im so glad she will make a new law to make the guy who routinely breaks the law follow the law lmao

wow. wonder how much that cost.

Weak ass bitch, we need a black woman to do the job I guess, wtf!

Another coward

COWARD!!!!!

This is the same as not grounding your kid and telling them you are very disappointed. No lesson learned here. If anything, he learned that he just got away with his BS!!!

Democrats out of polite society. Fuckless useless traitors

Oversight to what end? If the 'oversight' reveals corruption, will they threaten Mayor McSleaze with even more oversight?

the process would likely last past the upcoming primary especially with likely appeals before he would actually get removed. The citizens of NY can ditch this guy by voting him out

the people that think she could have just made a decision today to remove him should. I dont think he should be the mayor any longer, but its not that easy. NY technically has a process but its not open and shut and would likely go past the upcoming primary before its even near settled. Vote him out

I'm not from NY but I don't think I've ever heard of a governor removing a mayor? It's a huge city, he was elected. I hate him, but don't these removals usually need to be done by the voters? I don't blame her for taking every possible step first even if she knows they won't work.

Pathetic

So what?

Boooooooooooo

This is a dereliction of duty. What a goddamn coward.

Oh for fucking fuck's fucking sake

Schill

If she does this then Cuomo will most likely win the special election

@gothamist.com @thecity.bsky.social & @hellgateny.bsky.social are must reads these days kicking the dainty @nytimes.com azzz

Well that sucks

👎

Making republicans look slightly less evil

We need leadership right now and Dems refuse to do the right thing.

COWARD.

Democrat loyalists. MENENDEZ was protected from his prior coroption... until the last corruption caught him with Gold Bars....LOL

Hochul should be primaried.

@kenmartin.bsky.social , your Democrats are useless, when will they grow a spine

That’s what I want to know. Isn’t this kind of corruption against NY state and NYC laws. Why don’t they prosecute him?

Nope! And the party is run by careerist cowards, hence these outcomes.

Awesome, time to punt the Dems and create a party that actually represents people. No accountability = no change. Folks shouldn't fear being canceled or being called mean things online and let that stop them from doing their jobs, they should be afraid of being held accountable and fired if/when not

'Hochul has a negative 39-47% favorability rating and her job approval rating is 44-48%, both little changed from December, according to a Siena College poll... While 31% of voters say they would re-elect Hochul, 57% want ‘someone else,’ also little changed.'

As I have written before, this is not a hand-your-pink-slip. I wish more media would educate and explain the complications of the process to do this firing. Instead of writing the sensational headlines in this matter. Poor journalism preying on readers.

lol why does she always do the wrong thing like every single time

What an absurdly short-sighted abdication of duty. We should expect more of this from Democrats as fascism tightens its grip on the USA.

Cowardly

New York City voters deserve to have the mayor they voted for! As punishment.

...ah yes, pass bills that imply there is a real concern about the major, so much so it requires said bills...but sure, let's keep him board. Feckless.

Drumpf and the plutocrats LOVE this distraction. Just throw the bum out already! Don’t let this boil on the city’s butt continue to fester and give cover to what the Nazi’s are doing in Washington.

@democrats.org bowing down to Drumpfs wishes yet again, sickening.

Cut nose? Check Spite face? Check She has disappointed me as a badass. Just a badass wannabe.

I think this is smart on her part. Publicly telling him I’m keeping you there for now, but I can pull you out when I want to. She should hold on to her leverage

centre-left includes corruption

How about sending him home without pay? Get him off the streets!

He's been compromised. Guess it doesn't matter 🤷🏻

Again, remind us when the republicans played by the rules?

Ok great start the process we got time

It wouldn't take EVERY SINGLE DEMOCRATIC SENATOR TO SHUT THE SENATE DOWN. ONE CAN DO THAT. Tuberville blocked military promotions FOR OVER A YEAR. Who gives a shit if it works take years to remove Adams. DOING NOTHING TELLS HIM HE GOT AWAY WITH IT... AS DID TRUMP... AGAIN. DISRUPT THEM NOW!

Note that the word lawyer appears nowhere in here. He’s talking out of his ass

Absolutely... It's time to shut the fucking club down, or rather burn the motherfucker to the ground.

The really dumb thing is that Republicans are gonna kick Democrats out of the club no matter how deferential they are but they still can't be bothered

The government of the state of NY is considered the most corrupt in the entire country. None of this should come as a surprise. If you really want an eye opener, listen to ‘American Scandal: New York State of Crime’ on Wondery. It happened in 2008 but it seems nothing much has changed.

She should get primaried then as well

Hochul is beholden.

So basically if Adams goes down, he’s taking a lot of people with him. Because otherwise this makes no damn sense.

Thanks a lot Kathy. And here I thought i would never miss Groper Cuomo.

Because that will fix it

Wrong decision

Coward

A perfect storm of enablers. We are all doomed.

Sad to hear this. Was hoping she would do the right lawful thing.

When the going gets tough, the tough ARE NOWHERE to be found!!! Hochul did not stand up for the people who elected here.!!! Au revoir Gov!!!

Jesus christ

Kinda like closing the barn door after the horses have left.
