Resignations Rock NYC Mayor Eric Adams' Administration Amid Federal Probes
A wave of resignations is sweeping through New York City Mayor Eric Adams' administration as several top officials step down amidst ongoing federal corruption investigations. Deputy Mayor for Public Safety, Philip Banks, has resigned, becoming the latest high-profile departure following the exits of other close allies, including First Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright and top aide Tim Pearson. These resignations come as scrutiny increases surrounding the administration, with federal probes reportedly investigating potential misconduct. Mayor Adams faces significant pressure as public support dwindles, with his approval ratings hitting record lows amid this increasing turmoil.
