All of his commissioners were resigning one-by-one over the past week, can't say anyone who follows it is surprised.

I'm assuming the unsealed charges involve taking/bundling/masking foreign campaign contributions.

Pretty much lol

Mayor Adams is a piece of shit. He played the race card on AOC when she said he should resign. He said something along the lines of asking for the resignation of the second Black mayor of NYC is hypocritical. He said more but being as corrupt as he is, and playing the race card, as the mayor of the largest city in the country is laughable.  I stopped liking him when he berated an elderly Jewish woman at a town hall about rent stabilization increases.  She was talking with her hands (a very Jewish thing to do) and he started demanding that she stop pointing cuz he’s the mayor and demands respect. He also was saying shit like “this is Washington Heights” making it sound like because she’s a white Jew she can’t speak up for the neighborhood that she lived in her entire life in this country (she was a Holocaust survivor). He’s garbage and back in November when shit started hitting the fan I knew he was going down 

there are only 2 reasons that you would surround yourself with criminals and they are

1.  You’re down with it and participating in criminal acts

Or

2. You’re so dumb and incompetent that all the people around you commit crimes and you’re clueless

They’re unsealing the indictment today hopefully that means we get to know exactly the charges.  Once the public knows and if it’s really bad , they’ll demand his resignation. I think Hochul can replace him if he refuses to step aside

Unsealed indictment alleges fraud and illegal solicitation, including soliciting a foreign power.

I think the public advocate becomes acting mayor

I meant as in have him removed and replaced not that she would literally do it 😆

and yes it would be Juumane Williams if he resigns which he’s refusing however NYers are gonna be pissed that he stole $10,000,000 from public funds and forced the FDNY to pass a sky scraper death trap. He’s gonna go.

i misunderstood and also didn't realize the gov could pull that particular lever

as of earlier today she hadn't said anything worth anything, just kinda the 'let's wait and see' delay stuff because they had a decent relationship

‘Woke woke woke woke woke…”. You might as well just say “Communism!” Like Reagan did.

Just yesterday I read that she wouldn’t consider it, but I kinda felt that would change once the indictment was unsealed.

he would have to reverse every single one of his positions on NYS/NYC issues, *and* he would have to testify to state legislators who he knows hate him every February to plead for more NYC funding in the state budget

I just can't picture it happening

Adams is takin a page right out of the Trump playbook “they’re only going after me because I complained about this administration. They really want to get to you all but they have to get through me first”

he’s a pos 

Yes, I too am worried that the many many bribes I've received from foreign governments in exchange for political favors will be looked into. I'm so glad he's standing in the way of that. :S

Inorite?!? Like wtf?  He’s also crying about him being indicted but DiBlasio wasn’t. I’m not sure if it was a grand jury that didn’t indict DiBlasio or if the feds just didn’t have enough to go to a grand jury. My understanding is that the feds come correct or they don’t come at all. It’s why they have something like a 95% conviction rate. Might even be higher than that

Yeah, that's my understanding as well.

If the Feds are the ones pulling the trigger, they HAVE all the ammo they need.

Yup might as well take a plea. He’s asking a judge to dismiss everything 😆

Adams’ lawyer is insisting that the upgrades were “gratuities” and not bribes and since he was Bklyn Borough President and not Mayor or Mayor elect it’s not bribery because a borough president doesn’t have much power

well, there it is guys. Bribes are ok as long as your position is weak.  Ignore the consulate that he forced the FDNY to pass inspection. That was just a reciprocal “gratuity” I suppose 

😆 I can’t 😆🫠😆

Adam’s still refuses to resign as all the people around him resign. The Superintendent of NYC Public Schools resigned and was supposed to stay until December but then he decided the sooner the better. Hochul has been seen in public with him. Probably to tell him she’s not forcing him to do anything.  No one wants him to stick around. Every single demographic has a majority wanting him to resign.  It’s insane.

Mayor Adam’s is garbage defending Trump as not being a fascist and we need to turn down the temperature. He’s kissing his ass because Trump defended him or some bullshit.  He’s an absolute bag of trash with body fluids in it

Dumpster - She's low IQ, very stupid. Everyone who says anything against me should be rounded up by military force and locked away. Everyone else who looks funny is going to be rounded up, placed in camps and then executed deported. Everyone who worked for me and says bad things are liars and should be rounded up. I'm going to be a dictator on day one. And now I'm going to quote Hitler again even though I keep saying I totally don't like Hitler. Putin is a great guy.

Harris - He's a fascist.

Dumpster/'friends' - So mean! Why so mean! See! She's mean! This is why there's violence! She's mean! *massive sobs across numerous outlets by the usual bobbleheads

Looks like he might get away with wtf nonsense he was doing. The US AG of the district resigned ahead of Trump’s inauguration 

https://www.reuters.com/legal/manhattans-top-federal-prosecutor-resign-ahead-trump-inauguration-2024-11-25/
 

I doubt the incoming AG will pick up this case.  This is why Adams stayed in office. He knew the deal and waited it out
