Mayor Eric Adams boisterously asserted he had “no idea” a grand jury had convened for the federal corruption probe into his campaign fundraising.

“I don’t know, I’m not a lawyer. I’m Eric Adams — the mayor! Ex-cop!” Hizzoner told clambering reporters upon his arrival at the 39th Annual 116th Street Festival in East Harlem Saturday.

“No idea. No idea. No idea,” he added as his team shot down further questions from the media.

He's either completely stupid or just playing dumb. I'm not sure which.

‘I don’t know, I’m not a lawyer’

We got lawyers who aren't biologists.

Yeah he’s stupid. The Democrats like him because he’s an useful idiot. He’s not like Soros or Pelosi.

Clambering reporters? No editors at the Post, apparently.

I find it hard to believe that a Mayor of New York City doesn’t get briefings on what’s going on in his city, including what’s going on with the Manhattan Grand Jury. He’s either lying through his teeth, or he’s a dumb diversity hire cluck.

Question: Well, then could you give us your impression of the reason for the corruption probe?

Mayor Adams: “I don’t do impressions. My training is in being the mayor.”

In related news, Mayor Adams says he had no idea that Long Island was actually an island. “I thought it was just an old Indian saying,” the mayor added.

Boy cot NY City!

Ever hear him speak? He’s illiterate and ignorant. I peg him at about a 73 IQ.
