New York City Mayor Eric Adams has officially endorsed former governor Andrew Cuomo in the upcoming mayoral election, announcing his support at a press conference in Harlem. Adams criticized rival candidate Zohran Mamdani, claiming Mamdani does not care about Jewish residents and referencing Mamdani's previous defense of the phrase 'Globalize the intifada.' Adams also condemned what he described as Islamic extremism, while clarifying that his remarks were not directed at Muslims in general. Cuomo echoed Adams's concerns, questioning Mamdani's Democratic credentials and accusing him of promoting division, particularly within the Jewish community. The endorsement comes amid heightened tensions and debate over the city's future leadership and the values represented by each candidate.
