The trend seems to be that a significant number of big city politicians are corrupt and unfortunately they are all Democrats. Not sure if it is values or sampling bias.

Well it isn't just big cities that fall into corrupt hands. There are plenty of smaller city mayors and county commissioners that identify as Republicans and Democrats. It doesn't matter if it's Federal, State, or local politicians, those looking to buy influence know that there is an opportunity with any politician carrying an R or D next to their names.

I remember this happening to Henry Cuellar (D-Texas) the minute he went against the democratic party on unfettered illegal immigration. Suddenly, indictments of bribery and money laundering popped up against him.

Do you condone this, because fortunes may start changing in the other direction?

Eric Adams's mistake was that she should have been a Republican Trump guy. Nobody seems to care when Trump's guys take bribes or secretly work with foreign governments in violation of the Logan Act.

Find an actual NYer who'll defend him, instead of tweets from a bunch of outsiders using the migrant thing to defend him. HE is the one who said NYC was a sanctuary city and only spoke out after he realized he was an idiot for saying it when he couldn't handle the mess he encouraged. Stop making excuses for this clown. He did nothing for us. All he did was go places for fundraisers (including a family member of mine who everyone now ridicules for raising money for this a-hole).

I am a NYer. Born and raised.

If you actually live in NYC and you're defending him, there's something wrong with you. There is no way in hell you could make excuses for what he has done. You're being ridiculous watching what's going on and thinking he was do anything to even alleviate the problems. Where do you live that you can tell yourself he's been good for the city?

+1 He was shady AF before and immediately starting after he was elected. It has nothing to do with anything he said about migrants.

2 years ago? It was acceptable.

Adams criticizes Biden’s immigration policies?

Adams is suddenly corrupt.

Do you understand that up until he showed he couldn't handle the migrant situation, he bragged about NYC being a sanctuary city? He opened his mouth and puffed out his chest and acted like we could handle it here in NYC. He's now acting like the migrant situation wasn't enabled by his stupid a$$ saying NY could handle it before he clearly couldn't. I blame Biden-Harris. I also blame Adams. I also blame another NY: TRUMP, for being his usual, spoiled, attention-wh0re self by stopping whatever efforts in Congress could've been made via a bill which was supported by conservatives. F the lot of them!

Stop trying to tell NY why Adams is being indicted. The level of corruption was so obscene, there was no way he could stay.

I figured people are dissatisfied with him and will vote him out next election. The rat problem is no better and that should have been one of his main priorities.

I have a family member who works in a private club / restaurant and his staff would come in quite often for meetings.

If NYC Democrats weren’t such a cult, they’d have the safest city in America today.

Eric Adams’ opponent was Curtis Sliwa, founder of the international Guardian Angels organization. Sliwa has dedicated his entire life to tirelessly making NYC a better place. He’s walked his talk every step of the way.

Why are Democrats constantly digging their own grave?

Not sure if there's a new thread on this. But the interim AG for SDNY resigned rather than agree to drop charges against Adams. A bold act of defiance against Trump and Bondi! We need more of this kind of protest from within the Republican party.

One Republican with ethics. US attorney in NYC resigns rather than dismiss charges against NY Mayor who is as corrupt as Trump and Musk and now working with them!

As if Washington DC hasn't looked the other way whilst its Mayors took funds, drugs, women, and worse for decades.

Go Marion Barry wannabes!

I know of one US Attorney's office that was told to stand down on prosecuting a mayor when they had him dead to rights on corruption. Political issues.
