It was probably a combination of lawfare (when Adams started making sense about the illegals) and actual corruption that would otherwise be considered business as usual in NYC.

He’s not getting re-elected. He won’t even make it to Election Day as a candidate. He’s polling at something like 15% in the Democratic primary.

He was on Tucker,

O man, seems that the whole deepstate shill club has turned on Tucker as public enemy number one. You can see the deepster bots here have taken up the cause.

“If I were POTUs I’d extract a price from Adams. Not personal, just politics. It’s a nasty business.”

It’s a squid pro quo. Adams knows he owes Trump and I have a feeling that the payback will somehow involve Letitia James.

“There is no indication yet that federal prosecutors in New York who brought the case will drop the charges.”

Do those federal prosecutors work for Bondi?

He’s a complete political chameleon with no soul. He’ll do or say anything to stay in power. Guy is pure scum. The only reason Trump DoJ may drop the charges is that his replacement is an insane maniac and will destroy NYC in a matter of months.

Jumaane Williams is a capital C Communist.

Exactly, he is still a solid dim. He only moved a little by the way the wind blew. Plus, he is an idiot.

Plus, he is an idiot. Yeah, he is targeting the municipal RETIREES, who gave decades of their lives in the service of NYC. People who are aged and need their healthcare acutely. Taking from them to give to the worthless freeloaders streaming over the border thanks to Biden and Mayorkas.

Curttis Sleiwah does not like Adams either for good reason.

But the charges brought against Adams are politically motivated , once he started making a stink about having to pay for the feds placing illegals in New York...he had no money for it.

When I see the weaponization of the Dept Justice against even democrats who refuse to tow the party line, it needs to be corrected.Its actually fascism.

But having heard of facts revealed by Curtis Sliwah about Adams, I too want to see him gone. He is little better than a Tammany Hall Gangster.But the federal charges against Adams are bogus and should be dropped.

Pump Trump

Sliwah asked Adams if he needed help controlling the rat population.

Adams is incompetent, rather stupid, racist, and a general jerk. He needs to be GONE and forgotten.

Well is there a Republican replacement who will run against Adams?

Why not elect Sliwah?
