Eric Adams “We cannot allow what should be a lawful protest to turn into a violent spectacle that saves and serves no purpose. There's no place for acts of hate in our city. I want to continue to commend the professionalism of the police department and to thank Columbia University. It was a tough decision, we understood that. But with the very clear evidence of their observation and the clear evidence from our intelligence division, that they understood it was time to move and the action had to end and we brought it to a peaceful conclusion.” 2 hours ago

“Cherizier likes to compare himself to historical figures like South Africa's Nelson Mandela or Cuba's longtime President Fidel Castro. And he likes to say that he's essentially a revolutionary … and he's going to redistribute wealth. While Cherizier has distributed some food and resources to people in areas under the control of his G9 gang, that's hardly a vision of the future or some sort of revolutionary [act]. It's more that he [Cherizier] wants to control his turf. Those who have suffered the most from the continued gang violence in the Haitian capital are the very, very poor people in the major slums. Something like over 200,000 Haitians had to leave their houses. They had to move into really very poorly equipped camps. You have, in other words, a situation where the people who are suffering the most are the very poor, the very people that Barbecue says he wants to help.”
