New York City Mayor Eric Adams made a name for himself by embarrassing the Biden administration.
Now he's under criminal investigation by the Biden administration.
On Thursday, following the announcement of an indictment from a federal jury, the feds said Adams is being charged with fraud, bribery, and taking foreign money.
New York City Mayor Eric Adams is facing federal charges of bribery, fraud and soliciting a political contribution from a foreign national, according to an indictment that was unsealed on Thursday — a historic circumstance that comes after a months-long investigation.
POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS FROM A FOREIGN NATIONAL, YOU SAY??
After the charges were revealed, Adams maintained his innocence at a press conference.
But he's in New York City, so it featured the typical New York City brand of bullhorns, anger, and car alarms.
'We are not surprised,' Adams said. 'We expected this. This is not surprising to us at all, the actions that have unfolded over the last 10 months, the leaks, the commentary, the demonizing.'
He also asked the public to 'wait to hear our side to this narrative.'
'Based on what I read, if it's campaign violations, I know I don't violate the campaigns,' Adams said. 'If it's foreign donors, I know I don't take money from foreign donors, and I verbalize that to the team both in writing and communication, and we will continue to do that.'
These allegations against Adams could be totally legit. A corrupt New York politician becoming mayor is well within the realm of possibility.
But what are the chances he would have been charged if he didn't break the leftist narrative on immigration?
The indictment alleges that wealthy individuals used other individuals called 'straw' donors who claimed they were contributing their own money, to circumvent the cap placed on how much money one person can donate.
Prosecutors also alleged that Adams accepted over $100,000 in undisclosed gifts such as luxury travel from Turkish businesspeople and at least one Turkish government official.
The charges detail how Adams has allegedly spent years taking foreign trips, and taking gifts from people all over the globe, dating back to 2016.
They're throwing the book at him.

It is clear that the Party doesn't want Adams any more.
And the Party is always right.
