While there’s no sign that they’re not actually moving forward on it yet, New York Governor Kathy Hochul and her staff are dusting off the old state law books to see how she might go about removing newly-indicted New York City Mayor Eric Adams, which it does seem that she has the power to do, saying in a statement that her “focus is on protecting the people of New York and ensuring stability in the City. While I review my options and obligations as the Governor of New York, I expect the Mayor to take the next few days to review the situation and find an appropriate path forward to ensure the people of New York City are being well-served by their leaders. We must give New Yorkers confidence that there is steady, responsible leadership at every level of government.”
