A majority of New York City residents believe Mayor Eric Adams broke the law and should resign following his recent indictment on bribery and corruption charges, according to a poll by The New York Times and Siena College. The survey revealed that 53 percent of registered voters think Adams should step down, while only 40 percent want him to serve out his remaining 14 months in office.
Adams, who is facing allegations of accepting illegal campaign donations from Turkey in exchange for political favors, currently has a low 26 percent approval rating. In a hypothetical Democratic primary, he ranked third, trailing behind former Governor Andrew Cuomo and State Attorney General Letitia James.
This poll is one of several showing growing calls by New York City residents for Adams to resign, yet he has largely dismissed the criticism and remains in office as he prepares for a potential trial next year. Last month, Adams pleaded not guilty to the charges.
“He should step aside,” said 67-year-old Manhattan Democrat Maria Fuentes, 67, per the New York Times. “You can’t trust him. Who else is he taking bribes from that we don’t know about?”
“My grandmother used to always say, ‘Show me who you walk with, and I’ll show you who you are,’” she added. “And he’s walking with a lot of people who are under investigation.” […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
