An irate woman confronted New York City Mayor Eric Adams on a plane headed to the city from Miami.
In a video that was posted to social media, the woman hurled obscenities at Adams as she ranted about what she considers overfunding the NYPD and the education budget being cut.
As she approached the mayor she asked: "Are you Eric Adams?"
When he acknowledged her, she immediately screamed, "F-- you!"
Adams, holding his phone stared as she continued her tirade.
Omg, yes!!! pic.twitter.com/T8vETzrFH1

"You're always partying! You don't actually care about the citizens of New York," the woman screamed.
She also brought up the Middle East, saying, "You support the genocide in Palestine"
Other passengers started murmuring and a person behind her complained that she was "holding the line up" as people tried to board the plane.
The video ended with her walking down the aisle toward her seat.
The incident took place on Monday as Adams returned from the 2024 Concordia Americas Summit he attended in Miami.
There have been ongoing protests at Columbia University in the city.
Adams has criticized the protests, stating, "I am horrified and disgusted with the antisemitism being spewed at and around the Columbia University campus. Hate has no place in our city."
