Indicted

Maybe Trump cultists will stop claiming that the DOJ “picks on him” after the Hunter Biden, Robert Menendez and Eric Adams prosecutions? No more whining about “lawfare”?

No?
 
FWIW: Bribery and wire fraud, for anyone who is interested...

New York City Mayor Eric Adams has been indicted on five federal charges related to bribery, wire fraud, conspiracy and soliciting campaign contributions from foreign nationals, according to a 57-page indictment unsealed Thursday morning.

The indictment alleges illegal actions stretching back to 2014, from when he was Brooklyn Borough president.

“For nearly a decade, Adams sought and accepted improper valuable benefits, such as luxury international travel, including from wealthy foreign businesspeople and at least one Turkish government official seeking to gain influence over him,” the indictment reads.

Specifically, Adams received luxury travel and other benefits from a Turkish official and later in exchange pressured the NYC Fire Department to open a Turkish consular building without a fire inspection, the indictment says.

The mayor “engaged in a long-running conspiracy,” Damian Williams, the US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, said Thursday.

“Mayor Adams took these contributions even though he knew they were illegal,” Williams said. “He knew these contributions were attempts by a Turkish government official and Turkish businessmen to buy influence with him.”

Trump cultists’ newfound concern with federal crimes is quite touching.

Of course, the opposite is true. You don’t see libs screeching about Adam’s being prosecuted. Or Hunter. Or Menendez. But you Trump cultists never stop screeching about him being prosecuted for his crimes, and you fully support all his efforts to dodge justice. “Lawfare!” you screech. “Selective prosecution!” you whine.

OK, tell your next lie now…

Mayor adams issued a press release saying his indictment is "payback" for his complaining about New York's homeless illegal aliens.

I listen to WABC and WOR out of NYC... what you are saying is a common refrain on the airwaves... Adams criticized Biden and the open borders.

Also, they think the reason he is not criticizing Trump, is that he knows he is going down for this, and he wants a pardon or commutation.

Funny you should [reflexively] mention Adams’ indictment as data point in this regard…because that is exactly what he is being sacrificed for. The thing that made him a candidate for sacrifice was, of course, his straying off the reservation on Democrats’ required illegal alien narrative. His days were numbered when he spoke up about that.

Carry on, Bugsy (with DNC water-carrying and errand boy duties).

Nope. Old story (Turkey) came up in Adams’ vetting a couple years ago. It was dismissed as trivial by Dems, media, (and internet leftykooks). Something changes in the ensuing couple of years. Now..it’s smoking gun time.

Someone stopped being useful to the DNC.

Adams? Safely in blue territory. Another leftist will step in. Menendez? Safely in blue territory. Zero risk to lefty power. Hunter? Not a player in government. Safe, safe, safe.

“But look…we prosecute our own…”

Sell it to your fellow window-lickers, Bugsy.

As if the DNC controls the judicial system. The investigation of corruption in the mayor's office got sufficient evidence for an indictment...just as the evidence against Trump did. The people indicted, from either party, were treated the same...

As long as we’re on your delusional conspiracy theories, what explains the prosecutions of Hunter Biden? Sen. Menendez?

Your feverish imagination must have SOME explanation other than the obvious - the DOJ does not operate with two different standards, one for Dems and one for Republicans.

So please….share.

You’re talking like a sane person. You will NEVER be welcomed in the Trump cult.
