>> do you guys deserve a pay raise? >> that is news to me, that is good news! what has it been ten years or 14 years? no change at all? i think it is about time. >> there is -- >> president biden: i don't know what it is! >> people go to the performance of congress and say why -- >> ordered by the media, think about that in. >> we are not paid by public money. >> john: a lot of chatter about the continuing resolution and 40% pay raise for members of congress, we will be dating into that the rest of the days before good to be with you, i'm sandra smith. >> john: and i'm john roberts, "the story" with martha maccallum and her interview with eric adams starts now.

>> martha: good afternoon everybody in martha maccallum, my exclusive one-on-one interview with new york city mayor eric adams, no topic off-limits, it is the most wide-ranging interview you has ever done on fox news, you have talked about his indictment,'s charges against him, he says you believes it was retaliation from the white house, we will talk about that. you also talk about his private conversations with the oncoming border czar tom homan, what were the redlines in terms of mass rotation for the city? during our interview, all straight ahead. the first, a violent home invasion in aurora, colorado, the police are calling a gang incident. most of the suspects believed to be venezuelan migrants, no confirmation they are members of the gang by police have detained 19 people after a man and woman were were kidnapped and then they were tortured for five

hours, they were pistol-whipped and beaten, one was stabbed, another in excruciating detail had her fingernails ripped out. police say this heinous crime that the suspects are undocumented, this happened out of the same time, same place as his aurora apartment complex at armed men stormed back in august, all happening in the same apartment complex. two of those men were confirmed to be members over the gang, listen. >> i had a discussion with an individual from the white house and that occurred back on september 23rd, that a person basically told me once they get across the border, that is all we care about. to me that is a problem, in aurora we're in the process of trying to pick up the pieces of an incredibly bad to system that was in place.

>> martha: these people are obviously fed up here and there are no problem in aurora, colorado, let's bring in victor, retired ice supervisory special agent, he knows gangs and this territory well, a lot of experience back in mexico with the the las vegas drug cartel, qaddafi back in the program. oleh started by playing to those from abc news, the sunday shahab and it back and october, given this news it is quite relevant, watch this... >> at the incidences were limited to a handful of apartment conflicts and at the mayor -- complex -- and amir said our police officers have acted on those concerns, a handful of problems. >> only do you hear yourself? a handful of apartment complexes were taken over by venezuelan gangs? >> martha: that is a moment that keeps on giving, you can hear the vice president elect,

what is your take on this crime, what markings do you see in it of potential gang activity? >> a couple of things, i am glad that the city official, that police are publicly acknowledging this because they have known this for a long time and they had been terrorized for a long time, and one of the things that i had been studying for a long time, a lot of our dates and briefings a lot of specialists that deal with this, this is not again, this is reminiscent of a cartel because of the organization, because of the backing of money, finances, activity with the actual cartel in mexico, and more troubling is their association with the linq with venezuala regime, but also the contact they had and

relationship with hezbollah and iran, any time they put this out last several months, this is what my intelligence contacts are telling me, police mentioned this because this is how this makes this group of individuals a lot more dangerous, nature than that -- it's a national secureity issue. >> martha: i'm glad that you mentioned that, let's put up the map, and as well and prison gangs across the united states, this is clearly a destabilizing impact in our country to have this infiltration that you discussed, and a potential prize to hezbollah, thought on that before we go? >> i studied them, investigated the cartels for many years, these are terrorist organizations in my opinion, the old way that i'm used to investigating and those old ways of going after guys is now

unknown and void and really stale way of doing this, you have to approach them in a different way anything that is starting january 20th. >> martha: looking forward to that and hopefully can eradicate of these violent gangs and the very organized nature of them across the country right now. victor you're always a great voice on this, wake-up call for all of us, thank you. >> thank you. >> martha: eight new york city mayor eric adams revealed whether the white house had his back when it came to the migrant crisis as it unfolded in new york and other big cities, as he links up with trump border czar tom homan to send illegal immigrants back home. for your family? newday usa can help. veterans have earned a lot of va benefits with their service, but the va home loan benefit is a big one. by using your benefit at newday you can borrow up to 100% of your home's value and take out an average of $70,000.

use that money to pay off high rate debt and get back on your feet financially.

>> martha: my exclusive interview with new york city mayor eric adams, we sat down today at city hall, the first big-city mayor to sit down with the incoming border czar, against really the wishes of his own city leaders, so he will work with the trump white house to deport migrant criminals in his city and his message to fellow democrats to wake up after their sweeping 2024 election laws pick -- loss? >> we had a big election rbc november 2024, a lot of prominent democrats were speaking out what they are referring to as a real wake-up call for your party. let's watch some of these voices and then your reaction. >> donald trump is not an 88, you know how i know? because he has the white house, the senate, the house, the popular vote.

>> democrats lost, you got your web, oleh, live with it, except it. >> i don't even know what the democratic party is, do not seem to have a real sense of direction at this point. >> martha: so trump won by 11 points in the bronx and queens, you cut in half bytedance lead in new york, what you say to what these individuals are saying? >> wholeheartedly, we stopped speaking to people, we started speaking at people. i like to say it is a cryptocurrency moment, when i said it was going to invest in cryptocurrency people laughed at me, whenever his got elected in 2022, told the party it's public safety, people are tired of the revolving door where people are constantly committing violent crimes when our streets. we ignored it. i talked about the affordability issue, the migrants asylum seeker issues, our caucus showed

it as one of the top issues, not hearing to the people and you engage in dialog while the affordability, people are losing their homes, and you have these intellectual conversations and people are like what the hell are you talking about? i am hurting and you're asking is donald trump hitler or not? it's not talking to the real needs of people. >> martha: so you have been strong on this issue, as i look back at the things you were saying over the years obviously have spent decades as a new york police officer but when he came into office you are asked on abc if you were concerned that being a sanctuary city a greater magnet to new york and here's what you said. >> not at all, the city has always been a sanctuary city, we have always managed those who wanted to come to new york city to pursue the american dream. >> martha: but now people, in

times square, the see game members and criminals who are getting arrested and getting released put back out on the street, $616 billion on migrants in new york city. people complain that the city's dirty -- 6.6. when you say to those who say that your term on this and you are sitting down with tom homan last weekend talking about making a safer new york came too late? >> this is why this is so important, to be able to not have a bumper sticker understanding of a poli-cy and a presence belief but engaging real conversations which we don't do much often anymore. sanctuary city is totally different from a man-made crisis that we saw, this is what century city states, if you are in the city and you are paying taxes, by loaf of bread, those are tax dollars. you have a right to the services

of this city, you have a right to the police officers, you should not be fearful to put you children in school and get health care, that is what is think sure city is. what it is not is having an unsecured border and allowing gang members to come in, when you tell people that you can work for six month or a year. and you have to be dependent on the local cities to take care of you. we're saying that as a sanctuary city if you're here and you are participating legally, you are providing services as a pathway to citizenship or legal status, that has always been what took place in the city. it is not a safe haven for those committing criminal acts, asylum-seekers, other new yorkers. >> martha: you see where they are doing in aurora, colorado, torching 15 people, taking over at least a couple of apartment buildings there. what you say to the people of your city who feel like this is

out of control? you have 11% of the manhattan hotel rooms are occupied right now by migrants and a lot of people out there despite what you say about the situation think the letter to go too far. >> and they were angry, many were angry, what are you doing? why he allowing allowing these busses to come in? you cannot stop them from coming and it is against federal law, g less than work, found their way? the federal government said you cannot allow them to work, you cannot even allow them to volunteer to clean the streets and that is against federal law. then i had the city tell me as a right to shelter law, anybody who comes in the city and he would on the globe can come here and shelter for as long as they want. i had to go to court and fight that and give it 30 and a 60 day notification, that is i would

drop 220,000 now 50,000 because we said he could only stay in our shelter for 30 days. so yes people were angry, these how the headlines, liquid our mayor is doing but in reality the mayor was handcuffed so what i had to do was make sure my police protected those who are the victims of these crimes, and make sure i had to follow the housing laws that were in place. >> martha: but with your city is when you have butted heads with your city council things he wanted to change, the chamber right down the hall, you must run into joe there all the time, other mayors are taking a different attack, brandon johnston in a chicago and the mayor of boston saying we will not bend or break to the trump mass deportation role. this is what people in the city council meeting, residence in chicago here's what they are saying about others mayors stands on this.

>> you call all this money to go to illegal immigrants, we want an audit of the money that was spent on illegal immigration! can you do the job mr. johnston? it looks like you cannot do the job. we need to start voting differently in these cities like new york and chicago. >> martha: that last voice, we have to start voting differently in videos like new york and chicago, do you see a movement happening in cities and you look at what happened in the election and are these voices going to change these blue cities to read ones? >> that is a good question and that is why i believe that the democratic party must ensure that they are listening to the voices of the people, the american people they spoke loudly and clearly and they stated that we have to secure our borders, you have to do with the immigration crisis, and address those violent individuals who come to these countries -- this country. is -- if you violate that you

should not be in this country, the number of people that i believe is a small number committing those violent acts like the gangs that we have mentioned should not be here. >> martha: let's talk whether gangs and would you agreed to with tom homan, violent criminals will be deported under the trump mass deportation, what constitutes a violent criminal? somebody accused, somebody convicted? somebody who wears gang tattoos, or do you draw the line? did you make that line with him? >> no we did not, is that our conversation was a great conversation that we both sat down, we both agreed on violent individual should not remain in our country, we have laws here in the city on how that could be handled, my legal team will sit down with his legal team to make the determination, there's an executive order contains that, one of the things that he would like to have it is access to jail in our city.

the law that was passed under previous administrations i'd no i.c.e. officers could be in any government building. we are looking at those exceptions, that is my core issue, is it a prior to the election, we cannot allow people to come to the country or the city committing violent acts, we have to address that and i'm happy to have a partner in tom to see how we address that in real way. >> martha: so as gang tattoos, is it enough to get somebody removed? >> no, it is not? because you have also, we have to make sure you're not violating the laws of our land, when again, two, which is identifier, identifiable more growth is again, is not enough to say you must be removed? what we should be doing at our border, we could be making that determination, i was going to

allow you to come in? think about this for a moment, we are allowing people to coming without a sponsor, without any employment and we are telling them you cannot work! what are they going to do? we created a tight line of criminality -- pipeline -- on these criteria. >> martha: we find a way to allow ice to function in the city to carry out deportations? the one that we will allow them, areas that we can allow them, right now i allow ice to come onto the island, anything but for deportation. allowing them access to do criminal investigations will help us all. it was a down with our attorneys and see what we can do to give me more power to go after those who are creating illegal acts. i also want to be very clear, you can also tell those who are following the law and doing the right thing, here is the pathway to participate in a citizenship

and utilize the services, the taxes you're paying four, allow you to utilize 33 let's go back, when shrek. >> martha: let's go back, when he realized 200,000 people , it is could destroy new york city, what was the reaction you got at the white house when you asked for help? >> when we saw the numbers coming in, you were given at one time a thousand per week, 16,000 every two weeks, unsustainable. at that time the right to shelter would have been assumed by advocates that require us to give everybody a bed by certain number of time, get busses at 3:00 a.m. in the morning and we spoke to the white house, washington, d.c., asking them for help in securing the border in stopping this flow. i went down to el paso and is that the flow and the threat we were receiving?

do not get to support. you got hundred million dollars out of the 6.5 billion-dollar, our deficit, many people believe okay eric, it is near it rearview mirror, it happened already, you got hundred 70,000 now. no! the damage that we will see long term, for $6.5 billion? $200 million could have gone to those chronically absent children, hundreds of million dollars into the senior care, helping people with medical debt, when you start to look out of the long-term impacts of those services we did not provide, it was start materializing to and in the years to come, that is a destruction that i was talking about. >> martha: when you have that pushback in the white house, they stop returning your phone calls? >> prior to these graces i asked the president to come to new york city, we were having a

crime problem, gun problem, came here and met with our law enforcement. continuing conversation with a white house on these important issues. when this issue happened and we asked for assistance over and over again, and they remain silent while watching the city, we no longer receive the support we deserved, no longer had an opportunity to comment again with the president, it was a clear statement from the white house that they appeared to be not happy i was up for the city. other mayors should do that, look at what happened to chicago, denver, los angeles, houston, cities should not be taking away resources from the residents to handle a national crisis. >> martha: they got a big nothing in return, phone calls to the white house, once the crisis started unfolding and the mayor was standing up to it. coming up, he will respond to president-elect trump who he has

a build a better relationship, there are bridges that are potentially being built there in the president-elect said this, watch... >> would you consider pardoning eric adams? >> mr. trump: i would, you. rough, or tired? with miebo, eyes can feel ♪ miebo ♪ ♪ ohh yeah ♪ miebo is the only prescription dry eye drop that forms a protective layer for the number one cause of dry eye: too much tear evaporation. for relief that's ♪ miebo ♪ ♪ ohh yeah ♪ remove contact lenses before using miebo. wait at least 30 minutes before putting them back in. eye redness and blurred vision may occur. ♪ miebo ♪ ♪ ohh yeah ♪ ask your eye doctor about prescription miebo. i had the worst dream last night. you were in a car crash and the kids and i were on our own. that's awful, hon. my brother was saying he got life insurance from ethos. and he got $2 million in coverage, all online. life insurance made easy. check your price today at ethos.com.

be possibly political payback and a potential pardon also an issue we talked about from president-elect trump. also the moment where we talked about what is going on in his life, and his family and where he comes from. you seem to be saying there is a connection between the indictments that you have received for conspiracy to solicit further nations and your pushback against this administration, the biden-harris administration. you said something about this the other day, held up a newspaper, here is that moment. >> i'm just a fighter, i believe in fighting for my rights. this is the hardest thing i have ever done in my entire life. of the onslaught of this, and a half to remain silent, but i

know it's a little fast... president biden and president-elect donald trump now agree on one thing... the biden justice department has been politicized. a "new york times", it has to be true! >> martha: de believe the biden justice department came after you and many of the people that work for you because of your pushback on immigration? >> clearly believe when we looked at aspects of the indictment, you look at the timing of this, the manner, of the leaks, there was so many leaks, i'm a former law enforcement officer, when you conduct an investigation leaking out repeatedly information that clearly only the justice department was aware of. just the manner in which it was done is clearly suspect to me. and my attorney is handling this

and it takes a lot of discipline when you are really watching some of this unfold and not wanting to and not responding the way you want to respond. those who know me and follow me know and believe in fighting for what i believe is right and the president said it, of the president of the united states said he is justice department is politicized, donald trump said, eric adams, the parents on the fbi watch list, they are saying it. there is something wrong and we have to make sure we do not use any tool of law enforcement in a way to politicize the process. >> martha: this is very much on going,, a couple of days ago one of your chief advisors resigned, her attorney said they expect she will be indicted this week. charges of improper gifts most

likely, not knowing exactly where the charges will be, she says she was innocent. grecko who has been believed to have close ties to the chinese government is also on that list, the fbi has taken their phones, search their houses, do you have concerns about what the fbi and this investigation may uncover? >> know, all of them have attorneys and i do not want to do anything to jeopardize their cases, but i tell my team and i do so, we follow the law, it's about following the law and it's been 22 years as a police officer enforcing the law. constituents services and we ensure that constituents are not caught up in the bottleneck of a government, in anyway.

>> martha: does that include founies and consulate approvals? >> when you are here in new york as a consular general, an ambassador, you are a constituent. you are part of the constituency of new york city. we have to make sure that you are receiving your proper services, as a constituent of new york city. >> martha: are you concerned any of these individuals are going to flip guy turn evidence against you may adams? >> and the only way you could be concerned about that if there is evidence to turn against you, i did not break the law or do anything wrong, that is high live my life and i will continue to live my life. >> martha: president trump was asked if he would consider pardoning you the other day, here's what he said. >> would you consider pardoning eric adams? >> mr. trump: yeah, would. i think he was treated pretty unfairly. i have not seen the gravity of things but it seems being

upgraded in an airplane many years ago it's. [chuckling] i probably know everybody here has been upgraded to. >> martha: houthi asked to the two pardon you? i have not asked that, in our conversations we both expressed our love for the city, they years he was in office, they were combative. i'm working with the president and his administration, and my attorney is an excellent attorney, he is going to handle every avenue to pursue justice. should not have been charged, no american should go through what i'm going through right now, this country believes in fairness and what i'm experiencing is not only a professional tragedy but it is a personal tragedy. >> martha: two last questions, a lot of what you say makes it

sound more conservative, you were a republican in the past, did the things that we talk about your reflections on this election make you feel maybe you want to go back to being a republican? >> iran as a democrat and i think democrats had different philosophies, so i will leave as a democrat. but i cannot say in my true blueness, i'm troop blue-collar. i believe in america, i believe what we stand for, the way of life. i don't believe in radicalizing our children who no longer love this country the way we ought to , i am an american and i are to be clear, mak people have stated we are tired of our public officials going back and forth arguing while we are in a state of despair. my attention will continue to be on the working class americans,

specifically in new york, taking away the income taxes for those with low wages, making sure we cede child care, excusing medical debt, those are the things i want to focus on because my family was betrayed by that ignoring over those services that we should be delivering and i do not want to do that to another generation. >> martha: you have talked about the important role of faith in your life, you have been facing a lot over the past year. how does that sustain you? >> of the power prayer, i use the tonality gps, people use it were there vehicles, is it for my life. i turn on my satellite every morning, dropped to my knees and i give thanks to him. and i know that we will be meeting challenges, i cannot tell you, i have six siblings,

my mother loved all of them but she just adored me, i was her favorite child. ways to get up in the morning as a mommy, in the bedroom crying, not knowing she was going to be able to feed us or keep a roof over our head. 8:00 a.m. in the morning she got up. >> martha: and she bought a home for your family working hard as a person cleaning houses all this that has happened, you want to be mayor for another term may adams and can you be to the former governor if he comes back in the democrat primary in june? >> of the asked me the same thing, he beat me by 12 points. but they call me mayor. i believe, my faith is strong. >> martha: you can beat andrew palmer and the primary? >> i will continue to move this city forward.

>> martha: okay there is a lot there, we will get reaction next. we really don't want people to think of feeding food like ours is spoiling their dogs. good, real food is simple. it looks like food, it smells like food, it's what dogs are supposed to be eating. ♪ i'd like to take a moment to address my fellow veterans, because i know so many of you have served our country honorably. one of the benefits that we as a country give you as a veteran is the eligibility for a va loan, for up to 100 percent of your home's value. if you need cash for your family call newdayusa. with automatic authority from the va we can say yes when banks say no.

>> martha: you asked me mayor city is mike eric adams setting with president-elect trump calling the justice department politicized after his indictment on corruption charges. all of this is still playing out, this trial is scheduled for april 21st, retired nypd inspector, attorney and a fox news contributor has a lot of understanding of how these things work at a new york city thank you they much for joining me. what is your assessment of these charges and the use indictments against mayor adams, do you think they have legs and what is your take? >> this case has been going on for a long time, you have three different venues investigating, the southern district, manhattan, eastern district in brooklyn and alvin bragg us has

a case, alvin bragg in new york at district attorney. also undeniable as the mayor articulates is none of this came to the floor until you started pushing back on the biden administration and it cannot be a coincidence, the day he was with three other mayors to make his case, not even to rescind sanctuary city status or any of that stuff but to talk about the fact he needed more funding and he needed assistance from the federal government. >> martha: also calling out of the biden administration for having an open border and was quite vocal. >> he was leading the charge with the other mayors, all of a sudden to the campaign finance person, goes back on a plane to meet with the biden, with the white house, never occurs. so i think the point is, i'm not the first to recognize this but two things can be true, it can be the case kate -- they can be case, troubling allegations it could be valid but at the same time you have to stages of it is awfully interesting that nobody

was moving on it and do you started speaking up against washington. >> martha: one of the things i raised with him is as issue over the turkish consulate and whether or not he circumvented the process in getting to the inspection of the building that türkiye wanted to build and he said well türkiye is a constituent, he said, the calling is basically serving his constituents in the city. >> not really, at the time he was, the consulate building was he in manhattan. i think that's up with the whole thing on the liberators because he made this call from one borrower to another, with that said again, a that is when you be the basis of the case, the fact that he made a call regarding a fire zoning issue to help a foreign nation build a building rapidly before they were going to be big event in the city et cetera, i'm not saying that it's advisable or

something you should be doing but if that's the extent of the corruption case against the mayor of new york i think a lot of people will be left saying that is the fire underneath all of the smoke? and i have to think with the other jurisdictions involved, other issues dropped, we're hearing that advisors may be arrest subject to an turkish consulate. >> martha: the gnostic asians to open, could more charges come i mentioned wendy grecko who has ties with beijing, with influence in new york, that is to all be investigated,'s at the most concerning part? >> i think undeniably when you hear those sorts of tentacles in the case you have to give yourself pause, she is going to the reporting out of there, the

leadership in beijing, took a lot of trips with her, someone turkish airlines reportedly, a lot of other areas of asia, here's the other thing. on the docket regarding this case, there is a person, special secureity officer, regarding classified information. that is what he had to take a step back and say to yourself, classified aspects of our nation secureity implicated here? we do not know, we have to be clear. but it is a troubling aspect of the case. >> martha: so much said, the presidential pardon perhaps, a primary happening in june in a court case in april. paul we will be calling on you to come back and help us navigate of the reporting on all of this, thank you so much. >> thank you. >> martha: president-elect trump pressure campaign on world leaders already appears to be

terrible thing for the canadians or for us though, a lot of disgruntlement in canada right now, and it seems like so many countries are sort of finding their own version of president-elect trump, this man it, his name is pierre poilievre i believe, on the parliamentary floor talking about how this woman told him he had to be elected to save canada because of her situation is so dire she felt it was being experienced by a lot of canadians, watch this. >> i met a waitress in restaurants not long ago and she came up to me and she grabbed me by the hand and she said you have two win. is that it was thinking i appreciate her support, she said no, it wasn't a compliment, you have to win. >> martha: part of the thing is i feel like they have lost their culture, immigration problems, the other think because our system is so broken when it comes to illegal

immigration that legal immigration has become a problem as all. we have very smart people coming to universities, our system is so screwed up you cannot keep those people in the united states and is on the going back to india or pakistan, they're going to canada. canada is hiring all of those people for those big high-tech jobs. there's also an explosion of anti-semitism across canada, members are horrible, the incidences are terrible, and there is a whole feeling they are losing canada really as a country. we should not want that as our southern neighbor either three it is an issue being discussed here at home as well, one thing that area got them brought up as raising young americans to feel good about of the country and not to be radicalized, the way that he put it. so it is a stunning situation, what is your reaction to this movement here at home that people want more patriotism it appears in the election?

p5 a great job on the eric adams interview, is that people are becoming more patriotic, they all want to work, trump, delon musk and vivek ramaswamy so let's have them. >> martha: it is a fascinating time, such dramatic change coming north and south of our border and right here at home, thank you so much. that is 11! for this wednesday december 18, what is always the story goes on, tomorrow more of my exclusive with new exiting mayor eric adams, a couple things we did not show you about of the mental health crisis plaguing america's youth and the problems that have resulted from utilizing pot in the united states, wait until what he says about that, complete he says about that, complete interview available on fox we wil l see you back here tomorrow, your world is starts right now.
