NEW YORK CITY - The Department of Justice has ordered federal prosecutors in Manhattan to drop the criminal case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams, according to multiple reports.
What we know:
In a two-page memo obtained by FOX 5, acting Deputy Attorney General Emil Bove said that the decision to dismiss the charges was reached without an assessment of the strength of the prosecution of the prosecution and was not meant to call into question the attorneys who filed the case.
But, Bove said, that the timing of the charges and "more recent actions" by the former U.S. attorney who led the office, Damian Williams, "have threatened the integrity of the proceedings, including by increasing prejudicial pretrial publicity that risks impacting potential witnesses and the jury pool."

Adams is now an owned politician :) That will make Hochul’s life a little more complicated.
It is good to make new friends.

Mistake. Keep the charges up, but slow-roll the case, while you make sure he cooperates 100% with ICE and helps undermine Hochul and James.
I am sure they can find some judge who will refuse.
We live in interesting times.
“He was a real cop, once upon a time. That’s a plus. Or at least it used to be a plus.”
Still a big plus for me. I think what they indicted him for was a trip to Turkey where the Turkish government paid to upgrade his ticket. Just like Trump’s files at Mara Largo, never an issue...until the person turned against the women running the Biden Administration.
Glad to see him get off, he deserved just that.
No he wasn't. He was a racist, token hire who got caught on tape calling white police officers "crackers".
With the charges pending he was a goner. He may still be a goner.
