The Washington Times: A tale of two cities on immigration

Embattled New York Mayor Eric Adams came out this week in favor of cooperation with the incoming Trump administration to capture and remove criminal aliens from the streets of America’s largest city.

New York is home to more than 750,000 illegal immigrants, an estimated 60,000 of whom have previously been convicted of a crime or have criminal charges pending, according to Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
