  1. How does it compare to other new mayors firing on day one?

  3. This is the actual headline, my god.

    A completely normal process of replacing an entire government administration, of the biggest city in the United States of America no less, has been fear-mongered and portrayed antagonistically towards the anti-establishment candidate.

    I’d say I’m surprised, but I’m just not anymore.

  7. Doesn’t this happen everywhere with a new mayor?

  8. Cleaning out the corrupt trash already. I’m
    looking forward to seeing him as President one day.

  9. Honestly? Even if it wasn’t a totally normal thing?
    Good.
    That administration was corrupt.

  11. I think I see another reason now why Obama reached out. The media is gonna do to Mamdani what Fox do to Obama.

  12. The article explains that this is a standard part of the process and totally normal.

    The headline is just the run of the mill sensationalism that’s standard with everything these days.

  13. They should burn the curtains and clean the air filters too, if they are smart. Purge the place of the corrupting influence of Adams and his pandering to Trump.

  14. Damn, I mean I get the 165 family members Adams hired but what did the other 5 do?

  15. No! Please hire them back and continue the corruption. And please hire Ericka Kirk and Rudy Giuliani. They are true New Yorkers <3

  18. This is a normal thing that administrations do prior to the start of the term.

     I’m willing to bet the media is rightfully assuming the average American does not know that though, and is attempting to capitalize on “firing=bad” in the bad economy they made, to Chicken Little the new mayor as some apocalyptic nonsense.

    The idea of the tiniest, feeble scratching at the billionaire boot on America’s neck *terrifies* them. It will be an era of mudslinging.

  19. Surprised the article doesn’t say “Mamdani tells 170 senior Adams administration to hit the fucking road like the jobless losers they are (we think!)”

  20. Yes, that is in fact what usually happens when a new administration moves in.

  22. dont let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya

  24. A reminder that Lina Khan is apart of his transition team.

  25. Don’t let the door hit ya where the good lord split ya.

  28. Only thing that gets me with this is… the fact that at the *MAYORAL* level, there are 170+ “senior” staffers. Holy schitt…

  33. Isn’t that the way a new Administration normally works?

  36. Completely standard procedure when a new party moves in. Not headline worthy at all.

  37. New York City has a new administration. Why would you keep the hacks from the previous government.

  40. [Confused butterfly guy meme]

    Is this immigrants stealing jobs?

  43. Makes sense. Eric Adams is Netanyahu’s latest minion in undermining the Mamdani administration, since there was a clip of Adams returning to Israel to profess his loyalty to them. Adams even kissed a wall.
