Finally, a proposed deportation I can get behind. Instead of transporting immigrants, undocumented and otherwise, to countries such as El Salvador, Uganda, Rwanda, Eswatini, and South Sudan, the Trump administration is at long last on the ball with its plans to send New York City mayor Eric Adams to sunny Saudi Arabia as our new ambassador.
This is most likely the brainchild of Steve Witkoff, United States special envoy to the Middle East, because he’s the one who met with the mayor in Florida last week. If you’re wondering what qualifications the former Brooklyn borough president has concerning Middle Eastern affairs, you’re not alone. But from what I can tell, it’s not so much that Adams is needed over there as that he’s not wanted here.
