New York City Mayor Eric Adams addressed the ongoing federal investigations and resignations within his administration, stating he is not concerned about optics and remains focused on improving the city. Despite facing scrutiny and calls for his resignation from some officials, Adams maintains his commitment to making New York livable, affordable, and safe.

Mayor Eric Adams says he is not worried about the optics of the scandal his administration is facing including the Federal probe and a wave of resignations.

Mayor Adams said he doesn't worry about optics, yet he called his top leadership team to the City Hall rotunda, where they stood behind him as he took credit for everything from cleaner and safer streets to growing the city's economy-even planting more trees. "Are you concerned about the optics of that? How that looks at such a critical time?" N.J. Burkett asks Adams during the press conference.

So far only two state lawmakers have urged Adams to resign. Tiffany Caban is alone among those in the City Council.
