Former New York City Mayor Eric Adams on Sunday went off on former Vice President and failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris after she came out in fierce opposition to the Trump Administration’s arrest of Venezuelan tyrant Nicolas Maduro.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Kamala Harris rebuked Trump hours after the successful operation in Venezuela that ended the nearly 6-year-long hunt for Nicolas Maduro. Harris got clobbered in the replies after she claimed that Trump was “putting troops at risk, spending billions, destabilizing a region, and offering no legal authority, no exit plan, and no benefit at home.”
JUST IN: Kamala Harris Gets LIT UP on X After Blasting Trump’s Capture of Maduro
Democrats are livid over Trump’s arrest of Maduro.
The Biden regime offered a $25 million reward for information leading to Maduro’s arrest, but did nothing during its four years in office.
Trump on Saturday sent the military into Venezuela guns a blazing, and Maduro is now in a New York prison after a roughly two-hour-long operation to capture him. No American military members were killed in the daring, middle-of-the-night operation.
After Maduro’s arrest in Caracas, Trump posted the following video of the strikes, which targeted at least four sites around Caracas, Venezuela. No US troops were killed in the operation.
WATCH:
Eric Adams noted the Biden Regime’s $25 million bounty on Maduro and their failure to catch him, while slamming Harris’s hypocrisy in an X post on Sunday.
“You do not label someone a narco-dictator one year and then pretend he is no longer a threat the next simply because a different president is in office. That is cynical and irresponsible,” he said, noting that the drugs that were flowing into our country killed thousands of Americans and children.
“Imagine being the parents of 2-year-old Nicholas Feliz Dominici, who died from fentanyl poisoning in a Bronx daycare, and watching this political theater,” Adams continued before welcoming Maduro to New York City, where he will remain in custody during trial.

Public safety is not a political game.

Maduro’s drugs have killed thousands of Americans and continue to endanger our children. Imagine being the parents of 2-year-old Nicholas Feliz Dominici, who died from fentanyl poisoning in a Bronx daycare, and watching this political theater.
America is safer today because Maduro is no longer in power.
Welcome to New York, Nicolás.

New York’s new mayor, Zohran Mamdani, also responded to the operations in Venezuela on Saturday by accusing the Trump administration of violating international law.
WATCH:
Mamdani: I was briefed by my first deputy mayor, my chief of staff, my chief counsel, the police commissioner, as well as other members of my team. I called the president and spoke with him directly to register my opposition to this act and to make clear that it was an opposition based on being opposed to a pursuit of regime change, to the violation of federal international law, and a desire to see that be consistent each and every day.
I registered my opposition, I made it clear, and we left it at that.
