Mayor Eric Adams reconfirmed his determination to stay in the mayoral race at a Friday press conference. He called former New York Governor and current mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo a liar and a snake.
The mayor also accused Cuomo of using the same underhanded tactics in this race that he has used to eliminate Black candidates, such as Carl McCall and David Patterson, in the past.
There have been rumors that Mayor Adams was offered an ambassador position to Saudi Arabia. The New York press believes Mayor Adams will eventually leave for a job in the Trump Administration.
President Trump has referred to Muslim mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani as a Communist and is interfering in the mayoral race in an effort to defeat him. He has threatened to arrest Mamdani should he become mayor, if he doesn't "behave" while Mamdani has promised to challenge Trump's policies.
Trump believes that Zionist Andrew Cuomo will be a stronger opponent to Mamdani who leads the polls.

The Godfather Movie Exemplified Capitalism
In the movie 'The Godfather, ' a drug dealer known as Virgil "TheTurk" Sollozzo wanted to meet with Vito Corleone (The Godfather) to persuade him to join him in the drug trade. Corleone's two sons, family lawyer Tom Hagen, and heir-apparent Santino (Sunny) Corleone, discussed the Turk's proposition.
Tom led the discussion with a presentation on how addictive narcotics were and how their addictive nature made it a lucrative market. He said that if the other five families got involved in the drug trade, they would obtain greater wealth enabling them to buy more police and political power. Tom said that not getting involved would weaken the Corleone Family's position as the most powerful of the five families.
However, the Godfather refused involvement because he said drug dealing was a "dirty business."
Tom's logic is commonly used by Capitalist businessmen. Morality is not considered when deciding on the product or service to sell, only its profitability.
In America, anything can become an industry.
The pharmaceutical industry profits from prescription drugs that treat, not cure, your illnesses. If you're cured, you would not continue to buy from them.
Capitalist logic can be found everywhere. The banking industry, higher education, food industry, and the veterinary industry -- just to name a few.
In Western society, amassing wealth and control is the goal of most entrepreneurs. They use terms such as "cornering the market." They have a mentality of lack. They do not believe that there is enough wealth to go around. To succeed in their realm you need to be an evil genius.

'I used to spend my nights in the company of
the Messenger of Allah
(Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam)
and used to put up water for his Ablutions.
One day Prophet Muhammad
(Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam)
said to me...
'ask something of me'.
I said...
'I request for your
companionship in Jannah.'
Prophet Muhammad
(Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) inquired...
'Is there anything else'{?}
I said... 'that is all.'
Prophet Muhammad
(Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) said...
'Then help me in your request by multiplying your Prostrations'{!}
I heard Messenger of Allah
(Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam) saying...
'Perform 'Salah' more often.
for every prostration that you perform...
Allah (Azza wa Jal)
will raise your position one degree and will remit one of your sins'.
[Source ~S.Muslim].
~A Little Note ~
Abundance of prostrations means strict observance
of 'Salat' and the performance of
obligatory, optional & voluntary Prayers
is a means for atonement of sins and the elevation of one's status in this life and the Hereafter...{!}
May Allah {Azza Wa Jal} help us to achieve this Status !
