As Eric Adams, the mayor of New York City, awaited a decision by federal prosecutors over whether to heed the Justice Department’s order to dismiss his five-count corruption indictment, he delivered an address on Tuesday professing his innocence.

How frightening for citizens of NYC, knowing that Adams will be making decisions that impact their lives based upon making Donald Trump happy enough to keep Adams out of prison.
Donald Trump doesn't care about the Jan 6th defendants, but he pardoned them to reassure MAGA partisan thugs that they can commit crimes for him with impunity. Putin has taught him that a strongman must reward such amoral blind loyalty. Trump is buying Eric Adams the same way.
This is that crooked bastard that followed in the perp walk with Luigi. Why are these guys not in jail? As long as people like this man and Donald Trump get away with crime, law in the states is done.
This does not seem to be working very well. I would say review and make actual goals for people to follow with ways to get there and definitive ends to achieve. Sometimes just throwing stuff out does nothing.
I really hate to be that person but I'm really enjoying watching all those idiots who voted for Trump (farmers, latinos, Muslims, etc.) because he cared about them ..... are now getting totally screwed over. Guess we've reached the find out phase.
I know it has to get so much worse before they all see it, so yeah, I might as well stock up on popcorn and keep watching maga getting screwed by own god. We are about to hit the rock bottom. On a good note, after that, nothing left but rise up! So there is a hope somewhere, just not yet.
So under this new administration, all individuals that perform any form of crime/break the law will not be prosecuted if they are friends of the POTUS. This is not how this is supposed to work in this country.
I can’t imagine this is going to help him garner support for a second term. He was compromised by the very serious allegations brought against and now he’s further compromised because he is (and sadly our city) beholden to Trump. We MUST make him a one term mayor…let’s “primary” him!
The feds are dangling the charges as a cudgel to blackmail him into letting Trump do whatever he wants to NYC. He stays out of trouble if he plays along and he’s a corrupt shit so he will sell everyone else out to save himself
Reminder that Eric Adams is a cop, he ran on a “law and order” platform, he blames the city’s problems on immigrants, and police reform and BLM activists all hate his guts. Eric Adams is not a liberal and never has been.

He doesn't appear to have borrowed anything, so assuming he paid less than he is worth.
Sounds like the USA was bought for a back handler somewhere.
Who's investigating?
Oh....
