A top aide to the Democrat Mayor of New York City Eric Adams was mugged in a brazen broad daylight attack while scouting a location in Brooklyn.

As The New York Post reports:

Amid rising crime in the Big Apple, one of Mayor Eric Adams’ aides was mugged in broad daylight Tuesday while scouting a location in Brooklyn for a planned visit by Hizzoner, law enforcement sources told The Post.

The brazen caper took place even though the victim, a civilian member of Adams’ advance team, cautioned that he was a well-connected City Hall employee, a high-ranking police source said.

“You don’t want to do this. I work for the mayor,” he told the two crooks.

But in a show of utter contempt, they ignored the warning, with one man lifting his shirt to display the butt of a pistol tucked into his pants, the source said.

According to some observers the fact that the muggers were unfazed by learning that their intended victim was a high ranking official paints a grim picture about the state of crime in New York.

    1. the “republic” was destroyed in 1865. Many idiots still worship the fool that killed 660 000 citizens, Abraham Lincoln

    1. True, but he has so much security around
      him, they wouldn’t have gotten near him
      or likely wouldn’t have even tried. Think
      we know what he’ll do now, increase his
      entourage. Next he’ll be asking for secret
      service protection and a bullet proof limo.
      New York never learns. They wanted him,
      they got him. RIP New York.

  1. Interesting headline. But, right now, America is concerned about the right-wing Highland Park mass-shooter, Bobby Crimo, who somehow legally got ahold of 5 weapons, including an AR-15-type rifle. This Crimo guy was a Trump supporter /rally enthusiast. These type of right-wing murderers seem to be of that ilk. Readers may be interested in checking the May 17, 2022 NY Times article by David Leonhardt titled “The Right’s Violence Problem”, which noted that, statistically, of about 450 killings committed by political extremists in the U.S. over the past decade, right-wing extremists committed about 75%, whereas left-wing extremists were responsible for just 4%. So, the danger of right-wing extremist-committed killings far exceeds that of such crimes by left-wing extremists.

    1. He want a trump supporter no matter what the lib media has told you. His songs mentioned killing Trump

  2. Guess he can be glad they only took his stuff, and did not shoot him. I ham relieved at that. And we can all be glad the muggers have freedom in NYC and CA cities. Also good in the sense that they appear smart enough to stay there to avoid being shot by law abiding citizens elsewhere.

  3. It doesn’t matter who you know. The criminals know there will be no punishment. Hell, the mayor is part of the problem. The criminals have no incentive to stop committing the crimes.

  4. The biggest problem with crime in such places is that those in power can’t comprehend the fact that their own policies are the root cause for the astronomical crime rates in their cities.

  5. Sounds like “Stop and Frisk”was a great Idea after all! Much better than
    De-Funding the Police or being Soft on Crime so Criminals wouldn’t have “Hurt Feelings” or feel that their “Rights” were being violated!

  6. All I can say is that Frank Sinatra would turn in his Grave And President Trump did so much for New York Its a shame how it has spiraled into a crime cess pool

  7. Maybe after a few more Ranking dems get robbed, mugged, shot, burglarized, molested, the RATs will see the light and begin raising sentences again

  8. Make the Press conference a virtual event with anime backgrounds and characters because New York is too dangerous!

  9. You mean the ( don’t you know who I am” didn’t matter to the criminals? What is the world coming too….

  10. Well, I live in Baltimore, and we have this kind of stuff happening all the time. I swear if the Angel Gabriel walked down the street, they’d try to steal his wings. But demon-rat led cities ask for what they get. No boo-hoo for you!

  11. Good , now he sees what the regular people go through. Defund the Police again. Wait till the democrats take away all guns . Only the criminal will have them , it will get worse then.
