New York City Mayor Eric Adams faces mounting pressure to resign after becoming the city's first sitting mayor to be indicted on federal charges. The indictment remains sealed as of Thursday morning at the time we went to air, but The New York Times reports the federal investigation has focused at least in part on whether Adams took illegal campaign donations from the Turkish government. Many of Adams's top aides are also facing federal investigations. "New Yorkers deserve better. We need somebody who can take this job seriously, … and he can no longer do that," says New City Councilmember Tiffany Cabán, a Democratic Socialist and former public defender who first called on Adams to resign last week. We also speak with journalist Ross Barkan, who says the city is "in uncharted waters" and predicts Adams "will stay in office as long as he possibly can."
