NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
New York City Mayor Eric Adams took a harsh tone against any possibility of anti-ICE riots at a news conference on Monday, as cities around the country gear up for potential unrest.
Riots have occurred in Los Angeles in opposition to federal immigration authorities, in addition to demonstrations nationwide.
«I believe we must build a system based on trust not fear, but two wrongs do not make it right. I understand that some New Yorkers may be angry, afraid and ready to express that. New York City will always be a place to peacefully protest, we will not allow violence and lawlessness,» Adams said. There have been protests throughout the city in recent days, Fox 5 New York reported.

«The escalation of protests in Los Angeles over the last couple of days is unacceptable and would not be tolerated if attempted in our city,» he continued.
New York Police Department Commissioner Jessica Tisch said that if New York does «experience civil unrest of the sort that we have been witnessing in California, the full resources of the New York City Police Department are available and prepared to respond.»
«We will maintain public order and we will do it consistent with the law,» she added.
Tisch said the city does not «engage in civil immigration enforcement» but said they have «no tolerance for violence,» «no tolerance for property damage» and «no tolerance» for blockade-style demonstrations.
Adams has exhibited a degree of cooperation with the Trump administration on federal immigration law, as a legal battle is underway to allow ICE to have an office on Riker’s Island – a request that Adams supports, but the city council has sued him over in opposition.
In February, border czar Tom Homan and Adams said they plan to work together.

«Getting back in Rikers Island is a game changer. Not only do we get the bad guys really hitting the streets, the intelligence of how [Tren de Aragua] operates, where they’re operating, all this intelligence they gather at Rikers Island, we have access to,» Homan said in a joint interview with Adams on «Fox & Friends» at the time.
«The far left has hijacked this narrative [that] ICE is running in our schools, ICE is running in our churches, and they are creating this frenzy. They’re not in the business of just grabbing children. We need to just stop all this noise,» Adams said in the interview.

Meanwhile, the Los Angeles area continues to face riots, which has created a standoff between President Donald Trump, who’s ordered troops to the area, and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and Gov. Gavin Newsom. Over 100 people have been arrested, according to USA Today.
While there have been anti-ICE demonstrations during the day in Los Angeles and throughout the nation, the cause for concern has largely centered around property damage from agitators and looting businesses, according to Fox 11 LA.

«If I didn’t ‘SEND IN THE TROOPS’ to Los Angeles the last three nights, that once beautiful and great City would be burning to the ground right now, much like 25,000 houses burned to the ground in L.A. due to an incompetent Governor and Mayor – Incidentally, the much more difficult, time consuming, and stringent FEDERAL PERMITTING PROCESS is virtually complete on these houses, while the easy and simple City and State Permits are disastrously bungled up and WAY BEHIND SCHEDULE!» Trump posted to Truth Social on Tuesday morning.
«They are a total mess, and will be for a long time. People want to rebuild their houses. Call your incompetent Governor and Mayor, the Federal permitting is DONE!!!» he continued.

Newsom has said the violence has been instigated by the president.
«Have no doubt – Violent criminals who take advantage of Trump’s chaos WILL be held accountable. Our number one priority has been and will be keeping LA safe. If you’re protesting peacefully. Stay calm. Look out for one another,» Newsom posted to X on Monday night.
The ICE backlash comes as the agency has a goal to arrest a minimum of 3,000 illegal immigrants daily, including those with additional criminal charges or convictions.

Tensions boiled over at the Texas Capitol Thursday night, when a Democratic congressional candidate was forcibly removed and arrested during a volatile redistricting hearing.
Isaiah Martin, running for Houston’s 18th Congressional District, defied repeated warnings to stop speaking after testimony accusing Republicans of rigging the redistricting process to appease President Donald Trump.
Footage from the hearing shows Martin collapsing as he was pulled from the room by authorities.
«History will NOT remember you for what you have DONE! It is a shame!» he yelled, prompting audible gasps from the crowd. He was charged with resisting arrest, criminal trespass and disrupting a public meeting.

Martin was released from the Travis County Jail Friday, and all charges were dropped. He later posted a video on X thanking supporters and pledging to continue speaking out.
Martin began his testimony Thursday by challenging the legitimacy of the hearing.
«It just seems as if many are just sitting here going with their motions, and it makes sense because the game is rigged,» he said.
He then accused Texas Republicans of gerrymandering at Trump’s request.
«You gotta get Trump’s endorsement. That’s the name of the game to be a Republican nowadays,» Martin said. «Trump told every single one of you that he needs five seats. … But the real conversation we should be having … is that there will be a retaliation for that.»
Martin cited blue states he claimed are redrawing maps in response.
«Gov. Kathy Hochul said that she will be gerrymanding Republicans out,» he said. «The same thing is gonna happen in New Jersey.»
Martin also attacked Texas’ leadership over economic issues.
«We live in a state that is unaffordable … property taxes going up … despite the fact that you Republicans have been in office for nearly 30 straight years,» he said.

Criticizing the timing of the redistricting process, he added, «After one of the worst mass casualty events in our state’s history, you choose to go and gerrymander people out of their seats.»
Rep. Cody Vasut, the House Redistricting Committee chair, attempted to regain order, but Martin refused to yield.
«No, I’m not going to finish. Because I’m … I’m NOT finished!»
Martin then turned his ire toward Trump.
«You can thank your failed, senile, dilapidated, Epstein-partying with president for all of the work that we’re about to do to every single one of you,» he said. «You did this, you caused this and this is the result of you and your work.»
Vasut instructed state House sergeants to remove Martin. As Martin was dragged from the room, audience members shouted, «Get off of him!»
Martin continued shouting, «America will rise up against you!»
The committee resumed without commenting on the disruption.

Neither Martin’s campaign nor Gov. Greg Abbott’s office responded to Fox News Digital’s requests for comment.
Abbott has previously described the redistricting effort as a compliance move following court rulings against coalition districts.

In a July 7 letter cited by The Dallas Examiner, the Department of Justice flagged TX‑18 as one of four congressional districts in Texas that may involve unconstitutional racial gerrymandering through «coalition district» configurations.
Trump has publicly called on state lawmakers to secure five additional Republican House seats through redistricting.
The map remains unfinished, with hearings continuing Saturday in Houston and Monday in Arlington.

El papa León XIV recibió al enviado del patriarca Cirilo en el Vaticano en un gesto de acercamiento con la Iglesia Ortodoxa Rusa
El Vaticano fue escenario este sábado del primer encuentro entre el papa León XIV y el metropolita Antoni, jefe de relaciones exteriores de la Iglesia Ortodoxa Rusa y emisario del patriarca Cirilo, según comunicó el patriarcado de Moscú. El encuentro se produce en un contexto de relaciones distantes entre ambas Iglesias, marcadas por la postura del patriarca ortodoxo frente a la guerra en Ucrania.
Durante la reunión, Antoni transmitió a León XIV “los saludos en nombre de Cirilo y las felicitaciones por su elección como Primado de la Iglesia Católica Romana”, informó el comunicado del patriarcado ruso. El papa, en respuesta, expresó su gratitud a Cirilo “por sus buenos deseos y destacó la importancia de desarrollar las relaciones con la Iglesia Ortodoxa Rusa”. Según la nota, el diálogo incluyó cuestiones sobre el estado de las relaciones ortodoxo-católicas y los conflictos internacionales, con especial foco en Ucrania y Medio Oriente.
En el curso de la conversación, Antoni denunció ante el pontífice la situación de la Iglesia Ortodoxa Ucraniana, aludiendo a una persecución sufrida en el actual contexto de conflicto armado. En declaraciones previas al diario La Repubblica, el metropolita manifestó su expectativa de debatir las “perspectivas de desarrollo de las relaciones entre la Iglesia Ortodoxa Rusa y la Iglesia Católica”, subrayando la necesidad de fortalecer la cooperación cristiana en un “mundo en rápida secularización”.
El papa León XIV, primer estadounidense —nacionalizado peruano— en asumir el cargo, accedió al pontificado en mayo y desde entonces ha promovido esfuerzos diplomáticos en favor de la paz. Hace semanas recibió en el Vaticano al presidente ucraniano Volodimir Zelensky y mantuvo conversaciones telefónicas con el presidente ruso Vladimir Putin. León XIV ha apelado al Kremlin para que realice un “gesto” a favor de la paz y propuso, a mediados de mayo, la mediación del Vaticano en las negociaciones entre las partes en conflicto. Sin embargo, el Kremlin descartó la Santa Sede como punto neutral para un diálogo, por lo que las conversaciones continuaron en la ciudad turca de Estambul.
El papa y el patriarca Cirilo mantuvieron en 2016 un histórico encuentro en Cuba, aunque desde el inicio de la guerra en Ucrania sus relaciones se enfriaron. Cirilo apoya abiertamente la invasión rusa, que califica de “guerra santa”, postura que motivó un cruce de declaraciones con el predecesor de León XIV, el papa Francisco. No obstante, el metropolita Antoni, nombrado jefe de relaciones exteriores en 2022, continuó los contactos con el Vaticano y estuvo presente en representación de Cirilo durante el funeral de Francisco.
En la entrevista concedida a La Repubblica días antes del encuentro, Antoni consideró que el anterior pontífice mantenía un “enfoque equilibrado” respecto a Ucrania, aunque señaló que desconocía de momento la posición de León XIV sobre el conflicto.
En un mensaje enviado este sábado a la asamblea nacional del movimiento católico Pax Christi en Estados Unidos, León XIV reiteró su llamado a la no violencia y recordó la importancia de que los católicos “se conviertan en creadores de paz en su vida cotidiana”. En el texto subrayó: “Entre los numerosos desafíos que nuestro mundo enfrenta actualmente, incluyendo los conflictos armados generalizados, las divisiones entre los pueblos y los desafíos de la migración forzada, los esfuerzos por promover la no violencia son más necesarios que nunca”.
León XIV también recordó el llamado que realizó al asumir el pontificado, afirmando que en la actualidad se necesita “una paz desarmada, humilde y perseverante”. Instó a los miembros de la Iglesia a que estén presentes “especialmente en las periferias”, y a que las comunidades locales sean “casas de paz” donde se practique la justicia y el perdón, reforzando así el papel reconciliador de la institución.
El metropolita Antoni ha ocupado la jefatura de relaciones exteriores del patriarcado de Moscú desde 2022, año de la invasión rusa a Ucrania. Anteriormente, desempeñó el cargo de enviado de la Iglesia ortodoxa en Italia, participando activamente en la interlocución entre Moscú y la Santa Sede en medio de un escenario internacional tenso.
