New York City Mayor Eric Adams has expressed openness to cooperating with President-elect Donald Trump on his mass deportation operation. Adams emphasized that the voters have communicated loudly and clearly about the broken immigration system, which needs to be fixed. Despite being a Democrat, Adams has acknowledged the damage caused by the current immigration policies to New York City. He rebuked a reporter's insinuation that he is trying to curry favor with Trump, stating that he represents all New Yorkers, including those who support mass deportations. Adams also mentioned that he would reach out to Trump's incoming administration with suggestions as the President-elect's policy agenda takes shape. This comes just days after Adams canceled the debit cards for migrants program, following Trump's big win.
