Public Advocate Jumaane Williams continues to criticize Mayor Eric Adams in response to an order to dismiss federal charges against him.

"The truth of the matter is this: Eric Adams cannot govern impartially," he said during an interview Wednesday on "Mornings on 1." "That statement that came from the DOJ was stunningly truthful and stunningly dangerous at the same time."

Acting U.S. Attorney General Emil Bove on Monday directed the acting U.S. attorney to drop all of the charges Adams faced, including bribery, conspiracy, and wire fraud. In an address Tuesday, Adams thanked the Justice Department, maintained his innocence and said it was time to “put this cruel episode behind us.”

Williams, however, argued that the charges could resurface at any point, leaving the mayor now beholden to President Donald Trump and his agenda.

"[The DOJ] literally said, 'We did not look at the evidence of this trial, and he still deserves to be able to prove his innocence.’ But that's not what this is. They literally said, 'We need him to help with things like mass deportation. And these charges can come back at any time,'" Williams said.

The public advocate said while Trump supporters may cheer such an implication, he believes the mayor of New York City can no longer freely oppose the president.

"If you support the policies, the worst policy of Donald Trump, then you'll be pretty happy. But what as an American reading this, you should be very troubled," Williams said.

Williams also said he would not support Adams in the upcoming June mayoral primary and said he will continue to use his role as public advocate to oppose Trump policies, such as mass deportation.

"My job is to help the city move in the right direction and be honest about what's going on," he said. "I have to do that on behalf of 8 million New Yorkers who are counting on people to step in to help do the best they can."

Regarding Adams' claims that his legal troubles are behind him, Williams said Adams has placed himself in a "bubble" and cannot see the truth of the matter.

"It is hanging over your head. But it seems the mayor has created a bubble that he lives in. So I'm not sure if he's actually lying to himself or because of the bubble he's created, he actually believes it. But either way, it is not good for the city," he said.
