That’s what I was thinking, is Adams a corrupt politician, he probably is, which makes no different than the majority of politicians.

The question is, why are the Feds really coming down on Adams and his aides and friends ??? IMO, he strayed from the plantation and Biden sent the DOJ to take him out.

It’s not a good look for the administration. If the case is made, publicly ( true or not), that this has to do with a Black mayor complaining about Hispanic and ME immigration it may inflame many Black Americans. The common man on the street knows they are getting the shaft - more resources going to new arrivals than poor and working class Americans of color. It’s already brewing in the communities and this could add fuel to the debate.

Garland came out last week and gave a speech about how the DOJ is fair and not at all political. I guess he was aiming for a soft landing when his DOJ went after Diddy and Adams. This brewing chit-show is going to be epic.

Agreed. Adams’ indictment (whether valid or not) is bound to upset many black voters. So it’s puzzling why the bosses decided to move against him when it’s so close to the election.

Could it be the bosses decided it was worth the risk to keep all the other Democrat politicians in line?

So let me get this straight…Adams is getting indicted for taking money from foreigners.

While Joe Biden sits in the White House (or one of his various mansions). While there is no such thing as an illegal alien.

Whatever else it is, it’s pretty rich.

Imagine if Trump came out and defended Adams, calling it another example of a lawfare witchhunt.

What would that do to the polls in New York?

The funny thing about the Biden DOJ prosecuting Adams is that it sends a loud message that Biden also pulled this dirty trick on Trump, and Trump was telling the truth about Biden and his DOJ using lawfare in a corrupt political manner.

Yes, this helps Trump.

Is it as bad as the days of Mayor Jimmy Walker?

Garland sees the writing on the wall - Trump will win and seek justice against these communists.

He thinks these prosecutions will show that he’s fair & balanced. It’s just a lame fig leaf and it won’t save his nuts.

“””Mayor Adams term has been mired by squabbles with White House over migrant influx and border crisis”””

Yes, it does appear that even Democrat Friends are vulnerable when they say something opposing the Deep State.

Yep. But I don't even think Biden has anything to do with it. Mayorkas just gone rogue along with the DOJ, Garland.

Government is now being run by leftist bureaucratic war lords on an autopilot agenda. No chain of command exists. They function like an autoimmune system. As soon as a threat to leftist goals pops up, they all swarm to destroy it, even their own.

It could also be that no one worries about elections anymore. We’ll find out here shortly.

“Have they officially “jumped the shark” when the DOJ lawfare starts taking out Dems?”

I think it’s part of a distraction from Harris.....Also, to say “look, the DOJ is fair and balanced”.

You’re probably right, unlike Conservatives, Liberals all think alike, Mayorkas doesn’t need any special instructions to go after Adams, he strayed from the Plantation and as Mayor of NYC and could become a danger to the agenda, therefore the full power of DOJ is sent to destroy him as a warning to anyone on the left to watch what you do.

It’s like the Joe Pesci character in Goodfellas. He thought he was being invited to be a made man and they shot him when he walked into the house.

His career is toast.
