Thursday, January 1, 2026
On his final day in office, New York City Mayor Eric Adams sits down exclusively with Erin Molan for a candid farewell interview. In this New Year’s Special, Mayor Adams reflects on his time leading America’s largest city — from public safety, housing, and COVID recovery to the migrant crisis and the role of the media. He explains why he believes history will judge his tenure differently than the polls, speaks openly about political “lawfare,” and shares his disappointment with the Biden administration. Adams also discusses working with Donald Trump, his concerns for New York City’s future, rising ideological divisions, antisemitism, public safety, and what leadership requires in a deeply polarized moment. For the first time, he reveals what comes next after City Hall — and why technology, AI, and innovation will shape his next chapter. 📌 Subscribe for exclusive interviews and unfiltered global conversations:
