How federal judge's decision could determine Adams' fate as Hochul mulls ousting NYC mayor in historic move
Gov. Kathy Hochul will wait for a federal judge's upcoming decision in Eric Adams' corruption case before she potentially takes the extraordinary step of removing New York City's mayor, said the Rev. Al Sharpton.
Sharpton gave a glimpse in Hochul's thinking on Adams' future after a high-stakes meeting inside the governor's Manhattan office Tuesday.
The sit-down was one of several high-profile meetings Hochul planned as she weighs whether to remove Adams from office over growing concerns that he's politically beholden to President Trump.
"We're going to wait and see what the judge says tomorrow so we do not set a precedent," Sharpton told reporters.
"Supposing today she removed him because he's been indicted and the judge says tomorrow, 'I'm throwing out the indictment,' it would be premature."
Judge Dale Ho is holding a hearing Wednesday over the Justice Department's bid to quash Adams' corruption case.
Ho warned that the government's bid to abandon the prosecution isn't a done deal, noting a recent ruling that judges can reject such moves if doing so would be "clearly contrary to manifest public interest."
The governor announced the extraordinary set of sit-downs - which will include City Council Speaker Adrienne Adams, Comptroller Brad Lander, US House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and Queens Borough President Donovan Richards - after four New York City deputy mayors resigned en masse Monday.

Half of NYC's deputy mayors dramatically resign in wake of Eric Adams' controversial reprieve from Trump DOJ
Half of New York City's deputy mayors dramatically resigned Monday in a major blow to Eric Adams' administration - as a top rival threatened the mass exodus could lead to his ouster.
The resignations of Adams' four senior aides - led by First Deputy Mayor Maria Torres-Springer -thrust City Hall even deeper into uncharted territory as the mayor faces mounting questions about whether he can govern the city after his controversial reprieve from his historic corruption case by President Trump's Justice Department.
The four deputy mayors - Torres-Springer, Deputy Mayor for Operations Meera Joshi, Deputy Mayor for Health Human Services Anne Williams-Isom and Deputy Mayor for Public Safety Chauncey Parker - resigned as dozens rallied in support of Adams unfolded in Rehoboth Cathedral in Brooklyn.

"NYC Mayor-elect Eric Adams unveiled a team of deputy mayors on Monday, appointing five women to some of the city's most important behind-the-scenes roles. Adams' team said two of the new deputy mayors were the first of Asian descent in the city's history. Topping the list as first deputy mayor is Lorraine Grillo, who has been Mayor Bill de Blasio's COVID "recovery czar," as well as the longtime CEO of the School Construction Authority and commissioner of the Department of Design and Construction. Grillo has worked for the city for more than two decades, and Adams will be the third straight mayor to appoint her to a senior role. In addition to Grillo, Adams named Anne Williams-Isom as deputy mayor for Health and Human Services; Meera Joshi as deputy mayor for Operations; Maria Torres-Springer as deputy mayor for Economic and Workforce Development; and Sheena Wright as deputy mayor for Strategic Initiatives."
