Mayor Eric Adams - recipient of foreign donations/influence?

He snuck through via ranked choice voting. He was also the right guy at the right time - a former cop with a moderate message running in a primary full of left-wing Dems at a time when NY'ers were getting freaked out by a pandemic-induced uptick in crime.

But yes, he had some big corrupt money behind him. Turns out it was foreign countries.

This corruption is also reported by NYT, BBC, The Hill, etc.

Why hasn’t he resigned yet?

This is mind blowing.

The FBI seized iPhones, laptops, paperwork and a manila folder labeled 'Eric Adams' from the home of the mayor's top fundraiser, it has emerged. The Brooklyn house was raided on Thursday morning as part of an investigation into an alleged kickback scheme involving the Turkish government, a university in Washington DC, and a Brooklyn construction company.

They also took seven 'contribution card binders'. The search warrant, the paper said, sought financial records for Suggs, 25, and any entity controlled or associated with her; and documents related to contributions to the mayor's 2021 campaign. The agents also wanted records of travel to Turkey by any employee, officer or associate of the campaign; and documents related to interactions between the campaign and the government of Turkey, 'including persons acting at the behest of the Turkish government.' The team were looking for documents relating to Bay Atlantic University, a small Turkish-owned institution that opened in Washington DC in 2014.

The feds set him up from the beginning to be left holding the bag with the migrants but he was lured by the trap of more federal money to NY.

He should not have openly critiques the administration. That was his biggest mistake. Much like Eliot Spitzer, he pissed the wrong people off and now he will pay for it


Give it a rest. Anyone who knew Adams, knew he was always dirty. Garcia should’ve won.

How does one "sneak in" via ranked choice voting?

Big city cops are mobsters, so of course a head cop is a head mobster.

“Federal investigators are looking into the financial and possible business dealings of former chief of staff to NYC Mayor Eric Adams, Frank Carone, and a monsignor in a Brooklyn Diocese, sources familiar with the matter tell News 4.”

No worries. Democrat Eric Adams ain’t going to jail. He’s a Democrat.

Adams canceled all engagements, including a trip to DC.


Any chance of real consequences? I doubt it.

Tell Senator Menendez, I don’t think he knows that.

Maintaining my prediction that Adams will be indicted and still not resign.
