What unprecedented action is Governor Kathy Hochul considering against Mayor Eric Adams?

Governor Kathy Hochul is considering removing Mayor Eric Adams from office—a power that no New York governor has ever exercised before. This consideration comes amid troubling allegations of misconduct at City Hall that Hochul says 'cannot be ignored.' The situation has triggered a crisis of confidence, with four deputy mayors resigning to 'stay faithful to their oaths,' effectively casting a vote of no confidence in the mayor's leadership. The unprecedented turmoil follows the dismissal of corruption charges against Adams, which prompted seven federal prosecutors to quit in protest.
