Mayor Eric Adams responded on Tuesday to Curtis Sliwa’s violence-fueled Gracie Mansion protest by calling the Republican radio host a “buffoon.”

The mayor’s statement came at a City Hall press conference Aug. 29 when he was asked about Sliwa’s Aug. 27 rally against asylum seekers on West 86th Street. Sliwa, the founder of the Guardian Angels, and his fellow protesters railed against Adams for not housing the new arrivals on the grounds of Gracie Mansion.
