Adams says Lightfoot’s loss in Chicago is ‘warning sign for country’

a “warning sign” for the rest of the nation as he defended his focus on fighting crime in the Big Apple.Sunday when asked if his ultra-progressive Chicago counterpart’s measly third-place finish last week was a warning sign for New York.

“We are focused on public safety because people want to be saved,” Adams said, according to the interview transcript released by City Hall.When Bash pressed him on if his focus on crime has helped feed a GOP talking point that there is too much crime, which hurts Democrats, Adams replied, “I say, I listen to Americans and New Yorkers.

I don't see a warning sign for Democrat? I see a Warning Sign for Politicians Soft on Criminals!!!

No it’s a warning sign to liberal leftwing mayors that don’t see or heed the signs before them.

Democrats LIE & then scare their constituents with false narratives. There is absolutely nothing terrifying about conservatives. They’re the ones who believe in the constitution and freedom for all and the Democrats do terrible shit, then blame conservatives.

It is a sign that America is waking up

It’s a warning sign for Democrats that’s what it is. Stop being commie anarchist brownshirts that let criminals run amuck and you might keep your job.

A warning sign for his career

we can only hope.. we need to wake up and retake our wonderful cities back to those that will love and cherish them, and punish those that don't and won't.

Wake up and smell the coffee, people are tired of putting up with unqualified elected officials such as Lightfoot and you!!! Start doing your job and clean the city of crime.

It's a warning sign you can't use the race card as a coverup on everything

Lol

It’s a warning to all incompetent petty little tyrants who let crime run rampant in their city….so yeah, huge blinking neon warning sign for NYCMayor

Means you get tossed next! 💋blm

What kind of warning? She was inept plain and simple. Crime, Violence, Drugs, Vagrants, Quality of life issues poorly addressed.

'Warning sign'....Yes, Affirmative Action hires don't work.🤣🤣🤣

It's a warning sign for lousy mayors. Adams should take notice.

If she won it would be a bigger sign!

Maybe just to him calling ppl crackers, talking about division and letting crime run rampant- it was just natural outcome.

A warning sign to DO YOUR JOB

NYC got better free stuff than ORD Here we come 'Crackers' (Eric's term, not mine)

It's a warning to democrats that their fascist government style is being rejected by freedom seeking Americans. No mandates. No lockdowns. No face diapers. Stop the criminals, no stealing, killing and burning our cities. Deport illegal aliens.

I can't think of a worse sight for any eyes to experience than Lori Lightfoot's head. The preemie-baby eyes, the Droopy grimace, the sparkplug hair 🤣 It's such a merciless assault on all-things vision. USA lorilightfoot Ugly Chicago

It is also a warning to Adams but I am not sure he can see it.

Ya think?!!! Last thing we need is Beetlejuice letting criminals roam free. Who knew?!!! People want consequences for criminals. Duh!! Too bad if too many black people are in prison. Stop committing crimes then.

Warning: voters will judge you on your performance, not your identity

It is. Stop electing terrible leaders into office.

Finally people are standing up!!!

Nah. You the warning sign for this country.

What is he saying?

Its called being incompetent .

...and you are next I think...

Citizens are sick and tired of Politicians catering to the criminals!!!

😂😂

The warning ⚠️ isn't for us. It is for them...

How is it a warning sign? It’s one of the best things that’s happened to Chicago

He should stick to weed smoking

Yeah you’re next clown ericadamsfornyc fn fraud

Don’t ya love when he talks in the third person? Oy.

No stupid. The massive amount of crime you allow that is ruining our backyards is the sign you ignore

It’s your next type of sign

And would that warning sign be that residents of Democrat run cities are sick of living in crime infested shit holes?

NY City crime - out of control. Gangs, thugs, vagrants run the streets.

Warning sign things will get better or just warning to them ppl don’t want what they offer

That being a lousy mayor won’t get you re-elected

there will still be a Democrat in charge. IMO she went after too many unions. Chicago isn't in the top 10 dangerous cities in Illinois. it ain't crime there is always room for improvement.

What to not embarrassingly suck at your jobs and be a complete clown while doing so?

No more talk about God?

When you suck at your job you should be replaced. Take note Adams.

Warning that it's gonna be awesome?

People are waking up to liberals

I sure hope so

No law and order, no job. Simple.

😂😂😂

Nah. This is just a warning sign for Hizzoner. Inaction whilst in office begets inaction at the polls. If ericadamsfornyc doesn’t start governing for all New Yorkers, then he’ll find himself out of office with a handful of worthless Bitcoin.

Yea a warning sign that the deep state is about to get obliterated

We need Curtis

A wake up call is more appropriate

Adams the cesspool of the left. These people think they are so important because they can cheat, steal and demand because WE allowed it to go on. NO MORE we call them out for what they are. Adams is an opportunist on the poor and people of color.

Good, now NYCMayor clean the city up. My wife barely goes in once/twice a month and she can’t stand being there anymore. This is coming from a woman who worked in the city for 14 years straight.

No it’s not your next this guy is a clown 🤡 I hate to say it Ed Koch did a better job then this clown

It's a wonderful power that the reality feels much like what they say, instead of reality, that is, Because 'it' doesn't speak and they're the interpreters, Since we lack the will to put in the strength to find and interpret ourselves the truth.

Adams has no love for the Progressives, but has been forced to bow to them in NYC by his party bosses. This is why the Democratic party is useless to Americans now. Their policies are out of touch with reality and their leaders are all fools backing a dangerous ideology.

Fr 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂🤣

Hopefully it's a warning sign for the people and the politicians in some of our once safe and beautiful cities that have turned into liberal shitholes. Change your focus. Safety for your residents.

Warning sign that if you don’t do your job you get fired

Or a warning sign to pro crime mayors

Yes the people aren’t going to tolerate incompetence from any gender or colour.

Voting out the incompetent politicians is an awesome warning for our great country!

🤣🤣🤣

Yes... the big AWAKENING!!

Yeah, it’s a warning side that we will not accept ineptitude ecen when they have a progressive leftist label.

No more parties for him

He’s next. Maybe if he had figured out that church and state separation thing, he’d be more secure?🤡

Hahahaha

Yeah garbage mayors might start losing their jobs

David Dinkins with a better tailor.

😂😂😂

Adams will be president if he stays on those talking points. He killed that interview! No 🧢

Yeah he's next

He should, he another terrible mayor who's days are numbered.

It seems not a warning sign for the country more of a statement rooted in MLK’s phrase. Content of character is more important than the color of your skin. It’s a better quality to be a competent thoughtful positive force than solely rely on divisive superficial activism.

NYCMayor start turning the city around or we will vote for someone else.

No Racists.

Lizard Ppl

One can only hope. 🙏🏽

Beetlejuice

I want them to know whites are sick of living with them

No, it's a warning for Mr. Adams.

A warning sign or a new hope?

Maybe skincolor doesn't equal competence.

I am a lineman for the county And I drive the main road Searchin' in the sun for another overload I hear you singin' in the wire I can hear you through the whine And the Wichita lineman is still on the line.

Yeah, if Democratic Mayors could stop being so FUCKING WEIRD (HINT HINT ERIC ADAMS) then maybe they'd have easier elections.

yes it is the sign is we are done with you corrupt Leftard Dems

One would hope

He’s next.

Worst NY mayor in the past 30 years

Yeah, WARNING!!! America is returning to prosperity, domestic tranquility and progress. LOOK OUT!—F4T

You're God damn right it is 😈😈😈😈😈😈

Right, no more democrats!!

It is a warning sign. Start electing people based on qualifications and experience.

Did her vote mules get caught up in gang violence or something?

what kind of a warning sign that people are tired of high crime and democrats supporting criminals? and being easy on crime

The warning is that no matter how you get into office you have to get results. 🤷‍♂️

America is getting tired of black leadership. Like all politicians suck. But they take it to a whole new level.

She wasn’t a good mayor bottom line.

Warning to do your job?

Yeah, that people are sick of incompetent politicians, and being the victims of criminals.

Adams is a fascist but America loves fascists apparently

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

It’s a sign that people are waking up.

It’s a warning sign for you Eric Adams! You’re next!!!!

warning for what? that homicide rates may go down?

It’s a warning sign for crooked, extreme leftists that don’t do their jobs & only serve themselves - not their constituents. Guess what NYCMayor? I hope you’re next. You and that criminal KathyHochul

It’s a warning alright

Lesson to be learned. Don't for vote 8 finger foreheads.

She will go down and one of the worst mayors of all time, Debozo close second

It's a warning sign to politicians like GavinNewsom RepAOC RepJeffries LondonBreed & all progressives that their time is over. No one will tolerate crime, high taxes, illegal aliens or grooming children

Yeah, that a lesbian black woman isn't far enough left.

😆 yea, if you suck at your job, u should be fired...

Yeah, a warning that tyranny is OVER

Nah, it's a warning for *him*

He will lose too

Maybe voters are just sick of the bullshit?

Adams is a racist.

Ha! A warning somebody has wised up

Yes it is. Mayors don’t let criminals run the city and kill innocent people

Warning: your ideology will no longer save you.

Hopefully it’s a good warning. This country is going down the toilet fast!

BernardKerik Lightfoot’s loss wasn’t a warning It gave us renewed hope in the Chicago Public School System pre-Covid. That’s inspirational.

Yes it sure is - if what NYCMayor means is you should get fired for doing a sh*tty job no matter what you look like or what you identity as…it’s a meritocracy, kids…👣🤔

No it’s a warning sign for HIM. It’s hope for the country

No, it's a warning sign for you, you racist.

Grolier1 Yeah, the warning is don’t suck at your job and let your city go to hell by being weak against crime while alienating people.

Frauds like NYCMayor are getting nervous. Good.

When you are a mayor you can't just spend 4 years acting like bidens press secretary only saying 'I'm a gay black female' amd not doing anything else for the voters

NYCMayor It’s a warning sign to you. Your commissioners are out to sea just like you. As someone that voted for you, I’m disappointed and disgusted at how incompetent you are

it's more like 'warning sign for NYCMayor ' for not going 🦇💩crazy like LoriLightfoot .

I hope so.

🤣🤣🤣 yes, because he may be next! LMAO

Or a ray of hope from this woke propagandist nonsense

A warning that the people are finally rising up! FTL

STOP QUESTION AND FRISK

Yep

Warning sign for criminals.

😂😂😂😂

Is he saying the ABC movement is coming to a screeching hault, without saying the abc's should watch out? That's two abc politicians they got or are getting rid of, once that ball starts rolling, it won't stop. They pushed their agenda to kids, and people are responding 🙄

Here is a warning sign if you make things a paradise for criminals you will be on the unemployment line very fast.

And you're next

A very good warning.

How if she was a Shit Politician behind closed doors?

BernardKerik Interesting that he takes the idea that people are sick of killing as a warning. Well, ok. He's been warned.

BernardKerik Last few days Ol' Eric has been sounding like a conservative. Couple days ago he said when prayer left schools, guns came in. Did somebody red pill this dude

Warning: We're tired of your bullshit.

A warning to the status quo chaos that is the criminals running the asylum? Is that what that pathetic Adams is talking about? Only in America can a Black person get voted out of office and another Balck potentially win and that makes America racist.

Stupid and stupid

It sure is! People don’t like or vote for pro-crime candidates!!!

A good warning sign

No, it's a warning for govt officials who are soft on crime.

For the democrats...

Warning: when you are no good at your job you will be replaced….

We rarely agree but he is correct

NYCMayor that’s what Losers do they lose! Not based on race color or creed just ineffective as mayor.

Yes. The warning is : Don’t elect people as a diversity hire. Unless you want a garbage city. Especially low IQ liberal females. Liberals

Total incompetence will be replaced. That's a good thing.

It’s a warning that crime rates might go down

It’s a sign of hope actually 🤷‍♂️

He’s another crappy liberal mayor

Good deal. That warning sign left the barn a long time ago. Glad he is catching up though.

Warning sign for you lol

That we’re going in the right direction

Yeah, If you don't do your job then you will be replaced!

NYCMayor it's simple do your job

Yes, but not for the reason he says

Warning sign of how not to mayor a major city?

No, it’s a welcome sign for the country

It’s a warning sign to the failed democratic policies. We’ve had enough of your crap. The winner in Chicago will be a Democrat but he’s better than Lightfoot.

Why ? Because there's 1 less criminal apologist of color in charge ?

Yes, a black lesbian mayor that happened to be completely incompetent and vastly under qualified! What a train wreck that experiment was! 💥🚂.

He’s next to go 😂

Her loss is a result of her inadequate leadership.

Warning that accountability is an actual thing? Lol

NYCMayor don’t go there

No it is a warning sign for Dem mayors who ignore crime in their cities. It really is that simple.

He thinks he’s doing a great job, that’s the funny part of this article

So sad she was doing a great job for the criminals

No it's a warning for do nothing, lying politicians that your time is up.

Nobody likes crime and idiocy?

Warning sign is that she’s gone & the country is looking better already

Beetle juice lost, must be racism.

Warning sign? For what? Less murders? Chicago had more murders under her watch than any other mayor ever.

Except he hasn’t done a thing

She still has a job under him

These people are on serious drugs

Oh are you serious? I read something about this last night so Laurie life foot is out. Thank God I don't have to see her shriveling head. Trilo completely. She is a disgusting woman man.

She lost in a heavy Dem county. Guess it’s full of racists too

opinion it is a shame he just now acknowledges this, the thing he has been ignoring is the thing that will get him booted from office , So now he wants to do the things he was voted into do

What did you expect from a Diversity Hire.

He’s next!

Yup, liberal policies create high crime rates, and mayors that support justice “reform” have a limited shelf life.

It’s a warning sign to him! His days as Mayor are numbered. People are waking up.

I guess people don’t like to be threatened with jail over wearing a useless mask

A warning that they’ve awakened the country that the Democrats are awful?

Speak real Adams Chicago is a mob city from the streets to politics, you know the story about Frankenstein he could only be destroyed by his creator, the story was fiction but the reality of the truth reminds the same only the creator can fix it

this dude is done for goodbye

It is a warning sign -- get crime under control or else you are FIRED!

All this yapping from the right and most of their red cities/states are the bums of the nation. Show me a red state that’s better or has a higher GDP than NY or CA.? Why is it the red states get the most subsidies from the FEDS.?

Warning sign for .... never mind. Mail-in ballots will do the trick.

Yes, stop pandering to criminal thugs& do your job or you are out in your a$$!

Yes, the warning is be competent at your job, or you will be fired.

C'mon man. It's a warning sign for all you Woke, defund the Police progressive liberals. A person who garnered 70% of the votes 4 years ago got 16 %

NO NO for all black ppl.

Adams is derange

Painfully ironic

It is a warning sign, Chicago wants a leader. Hope the new guy does better.

He's nutty.

Did she do good things that I never heard about? What did she accomplish and what were her plans if re-elected? As an outsider only reading social media, I only saw bad things about her.

It’s a warning to politicians who are more concerned about criminals rights, legalize shoplifting, revoked bail for criminals, let crime surge and did nothing

Yea. It’s going to get safer.

Pshhhh look in the mirror Adam’s. Definitely better then de blasio but still a typical democrat.

For failing, soft on crime mayors.

If his call sign is 'Country' then yes, it is a warning sign.

Two Clowns 🤡

They can’t walk their talk and it’s all gone to 💩

Yeah, be warned: Beetlejuice is on the loose!

No shit Sherlock

Lost due to monumental incompetence!

he’s pulling the god is great card rn, to separate him from his failed policies

What the hell does he mean warning for the country. I think it’s a warning that America is waking up.

A warning sign to actually STOP crime

Damn straight! 🖕

Adams should shut his mouth. He knows nothing about Chicago or the reasons why people here voted against Lightfoot. Chicago is proud that we chased that coward Trump out of town and he's still too chicken to come back.

Should be a warning sign to terrible politicians.

It's great that Mayor Adams is saying the right words, but what concrete steps has he taken to address the crime problem?

For those of you hopping on this thread to trash the mayor: he’s not the problem here. Blame the soft on crime Manhattan DA for refusing to prosecute shoplifters and the State Senate for eliminating cash bail.

Omg people taking their votes to hold politicians accountable for their shitty jobs and voting them out The audacity

Maybe they just weren't fans of beetle juice as a kid and it transcended to adult hood

Yes, do a terrible job and get fired.

This clown is worse than Bill de Blasio, there will never be a change in crime if you don't vote republican.

No, it’s a warning sign for Democrat politicians who betrayed the American people during the Covid lockdowns and vaccine mandates. Where you allowed criminals to break the law and set them free without bail. This has consequences.

He’s next!

Lmfao, you might be next.

no a warning FOR YOU

A warning sign to not do what she did to the city she was supposed to help build up, not tear down? That warning sign!

Lol

From one black guy to another

he’s next

A warning that incompetence will not be tolerated no matter how many woke boxes the official ticks off.

🤣🤣🤣

Yeah.. if you are a mayor, don't let your city become a warzone.

Yep it's a warning sign you can get elected because your a black lesbian woman but can't keep the job if you can't do it...

You're all on notice. It's time.

Yea Dem run Urban shitholes are possibly wising up

He turns my stomach. You guys voted for a demon. Enjoy.

Agree.

BoosahdaScott POTUS MSNBC CNNnewsroom

Uh yeah, people are taking your word as gospel anymore. Don’t perform well in office, you are out on your ass!

Truth. A dire warning on the catastrophic damage an incompetent tyrant can cause.

He just wanted to Room with her at the Mayors Conference

If only it were. Well, with any luck it is.

I felt unsafe when I voted for Adams, 15 months later, I still feel unsafe. Not sure why he seems to be taking a victory lap here.

It needs to be. If your voters elected you and you do a horrible job don’t expect those same voters to re-elect you and for gosh sakes don’t call them racist gay woman haters.

Warning sign for mayors who cannot govern effectively.

Actually, it's a beacon of hope for the country. It's a warning sign for Democrat mayors who let their cities fall to chaos.
