Angry mom who confronted Adams on toddler mask mandate fired from city job

The Big Apple mom who crashed Mayor Eric Adams’ press conference Monday to blast him over his tot mask mandate was fired shortly afterward from her job at the city Law Department, The Post has learned.

Daniela Jampel, who served as an assistant corporation counsel, learned she was canned less than an hour after she confronted a caught-off-guard and apparently annoyed Adams over when he would “unmask our toddlers.”

Jampel had publicly challenged the mayor at an unrelated event on LGBTQ issues — as Adams stood in front of a podium banner that read, “Come to the city where you can say whatever you want.’’

“Three weeks ago, you told parents to trust you that you would unmask our toddlers,” Jampel told the mayor.

“You stood right here, and you said that the masks would come off April 4. That has not happened.”

As Jampel attempted to ask why, City Hall staffers tried to cut her off when they realized she wasn’t a reporter, but Adams, seemingly miffed at the mom getting a question in, allowed her to continue, although he told her she needed to “come to a conclusion.”

“Turn on your phone so you can get my answer correctly but come to a conclusion,” he snipped.

Sources close to the matter said Jampel — a leading local critic of the toddler mask mandate and pandemic school closures — was informed by email shortly after the presser that she was fired.

Jampel told The Post in a statement, “I am retaining counsel and will not litigate in the press.”

Based on what I’ve read about this story, I probably would have fired her too … not for her public rant about the mayor’s stupid masking policy for kids, but because she’s used her time to establish and work for a political advocacy group while she was just given approval for an extended eight-month maternity leave from her city job.

I agree with you. Plus, from the look on her mug in the photo by herself, she looks like she’d be a royal pain in the butt. Eight months maternity leave? What’s with that? Look how she describes her job, then she says she was proud to do it? Wow.

“podium banner that read, “Come to the city where you can say whatever you want.’’”

I’m guessing that the irony of being fired for saying whatever she wanted is not lost on this audience.

Why fire her when you can show you are a bigger man by letting her criticism roll off you? News move quickly these days, especially in NYC, our alleged media capital.
Eric Adams looks kind of OK, but currently gets a Klown of Renown rating from me. As far as children still being masked up, the mothers are more sensitive than the fathers, to the harm being done.

Read my post again. Her termination probably has little or nothing to do with her criticism of the mayor. It seems like she’s scamming the taxpayers by pursuing a second career while she’s on extended maternity leave from her city job.

Well, remember that for liberals, you can say whatever you want as long as you agree with the current ideology.

Liberals are like any cult: Welcoming and smiling to those who feel rejected from the normal world, but mean and vindictive to any who disagree, and they exercise harsh discipline against those on the inside who fail to toe the line.
