Well, that escalated quickly.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who once vowed to clean up crime across the city, has now found himself subject to a massive criminal indictment instead.
As reported by Blaze Media, alongside multiple other media outlets, the federal government, which began an investigation into Adams last year following the mayor’s very public complaints regarding the migrant crisis, has strongly implied its intentions to charge Adams with several different crimes.
The investigation has not only centered on Adams, but also many of his associates, several of whom have already resigned.
On his part, Adams issued a statement that fully denied any wrongdoing.
“I always knew that If I stood my ground for New Yorkers that I would be a target — and a target I became … If I am charged, I am innocent and I will fight this with every ounce of my strength and spirit,” Adams asserted.
That will get rather interesting, especially just before a presidential election.
Adams may well even be of indirect assistance to Trump in this regard.
Especially given his penchant for highlighting federal persecution.
However, Adams puts a racial spin on his own political persecution.
Just consider his bald declarations in February.
“Have you ever seen this much chocolate leading the City of New York? And then go down the line. Look, look who’s here … This is representative of the city. That’s why people are hating on me. You trying to figure out why they’re hating on me?” Adams declared.
Well, it could have more to do with the fact that hundreds of thousands of illegals have flooded the city while the DA focuses on prosecuting people with fake COVID vaccination cards, but, by all means, make everything about race.
Astonishingly, Adams even likened himself to Christ.
“How many of you go to church? Ma’am, this is a Matthew 21:12 moment. Jesus walked in the temple, he saw them doing wrong in the temple. He did what? I went to City Hall to turn the table over!” Adams roared.
Well, the table was turned over all right, albeit in a manner a tad different than depicted in the New Testament.
Perhaps one of the most illustrious examples of this reality is evident in the now infamous photo of Adams handing a metaphorical “key” to the city to none other than Diddy in a highly publicized exchange.
Diddy, known more for his profiteering than his rapping, has undergone a number of bizarre names over the course of his “career,” though it seems he is going to become best known as a mass felon and shameless sexual predator.
A small fry version of Epstein, Diddy hobnobbed more with vain celebrities than dangerous politicians, and he was hardly discrete, to say the least.
Despite Diddy’s well-known excesses, including parties laden with drug-laced punch, Adams apparently still though it was a good idea to effectively honor the criminal in a public proceeding.
While the key has allegedly been revoked after the fact, the reality still stands that Adams effectively vouched for Diddy in a very public way.
Adams did not help matters when he made rather strange decisions in light of his indictment.
“Eric Adams allegedly partied at one of his favorite Manhattan members clubs shortly after taping his response to a grand jury returning an indictment against him,” the Daily Mail reported.
Well then.
At present, Adams is the only NYC mayor to be criminally charged while still in office.
Much in the same way that Trump has been the only president to be impeached twice, in perhaps the weakest cases ever, in particular the post-presidency impeachment case that launched against Trump.
Who would have thought that such shameless Democrats would turn on their own?
After all, once the law can be weaponized against one political opponent, it can be weaponized against any political opponent … even if the opponent hails from their own party.
