New York City Mayor Eric Adams is facing federal charges of bribery, fraud and soliciting a political contribution from a foreign national, according to an indictment that was unsealed on Thursday — a historic circumstance that comes after a months-long investigation.
Early Thursday, federal agents descended upon the mayor’s official residence, Gracie Mansion, member station Gothamistreported, citing law enforcement.
After the indictment was unsealed, Adams maintained his innocence, saying at an outdoor news conference that his legal team would “peruse the entire document.”
This guy is such a moron. NYC deserves better.
See that, Republicans? We don’t circle the wagons when a politician in “our party” (not really my party) does something fucked up and/or illegal.
Imagine that. Actually wanting to hold your politicians accountable for their actions. Even the ones you voted for.
