NYC Mayor Adams rails against ‘socialism and communism’ in Memorial Day speech

[volsrock]

Mayor Adams denounced left-wing ideologies in an ultra-patriotic Monday speech in which he also lamented a perceived lack of national pride among young Americans.

Speaking at the USS Intrepid Museum’s annual Memorial Day ceremony, the mayor made the critical comments after referencing a Thomas Jefferson quote about the “tree of liberty,” which is commonly interpreted as being about military struggle.

“You water the tree of freedom with your blood,” Adams said. “We sit under the shade of that tree of freedom protected from the hot rays of socialism and communism and destruction that’s playing out across the globe.”

It was not clear from the mayor’s remarks if his anti-left-wing broadside referenced any particular country’s government or leader.

This guy is actually saying some decent things for a Democrat and I’m not sure what to make of it.

Sounds like he's talking about the new conservative movement to control business, schools and thought.

Anything to divert attention from how his city is collapsing most likely is what's up. I do note a long string of complaints that he spends too much time partying and has a very thin list of accomplishments.

Who cares what he says when his actions say differently

Let's see him put those words into actions and maybe I'll believe him...

Can't buy comedy this good. Who does he think he's fooling?

Sounds like he's not too thrilled with the "sanctuary city" bullshit, anymore.

I am not seeing a transcript of the speech anywhere, and I am long past accepting characterizations offered by others. There also appears to be no YouTube.

Oh, ... you mean allow businesses to OPEN, have National School Choice for all, and Let the ADULTS have uncensored free speech.

After DeBlasio, whom I liked, this Adams character had been a big disappointment for the Big Apple..

I hate term limits. We have elections. We don't need them.

Cuomo was ousted because he got his back up, he did not appreciate revolution orders coming down from on high which he was expected to implement without resistance. I kinda get the sense that Adams has some of that right now.
