🏙Mayor Eric Adams said Sunday that the Big Apple has become “a laughingstock” as it grapples with surging crime and homelessness — and claimed he’s the “wartime general” who can fix it.
Hizzoner pointed to separate shootings last week that injured a 7- and 3-year-old as he decried the wild gun violence he’s been trying to tame.
“It’s just not OK to leave a daycare center with your baby and hear gunshots, or walk across Kings Highway with your 7-year-old and hear shots,” Adams said at the annual NYPD Holy Name Society communion mass and breakfast at the Midtown Hilton, referring to the pair of Brooklyn shootings.
He also bemoaned the spike in petty crime and homelessness as contributing factors.

🏡National Association of Home Builders CEO Jerry Howard warned consumers Friday the housing market is currently "staring into the face of a perfect storm" and argued that is a "bad sign" for the American economy.
"Our own Wells Fargo NAHB Housing Market Index (HMI) declined three points this month because builders are saying things are going to ‘dry up.’ You've got a combination of the costs…regulatory compliance and now at the other end of the pipeline, interest rates are going up," Howard told "Cavuto: Coast to Coast."
The housing expert made these comments after pending home sales declined for the fourth consecutive month in February. Howard said he’s "very worried" that the market could "really slow down."
According to a recent study from Zillow, home prices are rapidly increasing faster than people make in an entire year, projecting price growth to reach 22% year-over-year in May.
