Mayor Eric Adams bemoaned what he described as the lack of patriotism among the nation's youth during a Memorial Day speech to veterans, sailors and soldiers aboard the U.S.S. Independence on Monday.
Mayor Adams denounced left-wing ideologies in an ultra-patriotic Monday speech in which he also lamented a perceived lack of national pride among young Americans.
