Mayor Eric Adams took an apparent swipe Tuesday at a Maryland senator who met with a man mistakenly deported to El Salvador – saying at a press conference that he would not sip a “tequila drink” with a "gang member."

“It’s time for all of us to ask the question, particularly those who are in government who find it more convenient to have a tequila drink with someone who’s a gang member: Which side are you on?” Adams said.

The statement was an apparent reference to Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland, who traveled to El Salvador last week to meet with a constituent who was mistakenly deported to the country. When Van Hollen met with the man, Kilmar Abrego Garcia, he was photographed at a table with drinks he said were placed there by Salvadorian officials in what he called a setup.

Abrego Garcia has never been charged or convicted of any crime, including gang activity, a federal judge wrote in an opinion earlier this month..................

“Let me tell you something, I won’t have a tequila drink with a gang member. I won’t be hanging out with them and hugging them,” Adams said Tuesday.......................

The Margarita drinks were planted to set up Abrego and Senator Van Hollen. Eric Adams is pocketing payola to propogate Putin propaganda.
