NBC's Tom Llamas criticized New York City Mayor Eric Adams Tuesday for his recent statement that migrants are 'excellent swimmers.' 'It's incredibly racist and I am shocked and really upset that there hasn't been more outrage in this city,' Llamas said in response to controversial comments that Adams made at a press conference on Tuesday.
Power Malu, executive director of Artists, Athletes, and Activists, also hit Adams for his comments in an interview with Llamas. 'Once again, we have an administration that’s deflecting attention off of their incompetency and mismanagement, and pointing the finger at the migrants,' Malu said, as flagged by NewsBusters.
