Federal prosecutor in NY ordered today to drop the case against Democrat

[TivoliDawg]

Mayor Eric Adams so he can focus on helping with Trump’s important immigration, crack down agenda.

This is bad news guys.

The president cannot/should not be using criminal prosecution, or the lack of criminal prosecution, as a carrot and stick for favors.

The prosecutor can agree, she can refuse to enforce it and be terminated, or she can resign.

This order was given before there is even a meeting between the prosecution and defense to assess the merits of the case so there are not many legitimate explanations for this, and it’s highly unusual.

This is not what we do here in America and this is completely on American. When people complain about attacks on Democratic norms, this is what they are referring to.

Also, it could be revived in the future or dropped permanently.

Majority of Americans voted for this. They knew it too.

Very bad news.

Spoken like someone watching a left leaning media organization. Tiv there are two sides to this story. Just like always, you believe this to be true without checking the whole story. I don’t know if Adams did these things or not. He hasn’t been found guilty. These charges magically appeared after he publicly attacked the Biden administration for being complete morons about illegal immigration. This was a huge deal at the time. He felt like he was gone after for political reasons. Had he said nothing, no charges would have come. Let me guess. You don’t believe that part of the story could possibly be true.

Trump said he believed the mayor was treated unfairly in December. Said he may pardon him. But he would have to look at the facts of the case before he did anything. Just depends on which side you are itching to believe here right? Because it is easier to believe the story that Trump would do this without cause or merit just to subvert justice. Adams may be guilty as hell, but I will assume he looked at the case. And not think he would just throw out something like that. Quite honestly, these accusations in the media have turned out more often than not to be total bullshit.

This is the kind of stuff that drives me crazy. At least attempt to see if there are two sides to the story. Sorry tiv. You aren’t the only one who does this.

I'm pretty sure Trump can make a solid case that this prosecution was political. If true, and I believe Adams was targeted, we don't want political persecutions in this country either.

I can’t imagine why trump would feel sympathy for someone targeted after standing up to their party’s awful policy. Especially in New York. I don’t know if he was guilty or not. Either way the optics of the charges look terrible. They came out after he had been railing on his party. So either they targeted him, or they kept the charges at bay until they could use them.

Justice Department orders charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams dismissed

The mayor was charged with bribery, fraud and other counts. Legal experts questioned the Trump administration’s justification for the move, and one law enforcement official called the order “transparent corruption.”

I give nbc credit here. They at least tell trump’s side of the story as well. While clobbering him. It isn’t like Biden pardoned 1000’s of people doing his bidding. lol. Who cares. Trump is bad

 

[KidneyStoned]

The MAGA crowd on here CELEBRATED the Adams indictment when it came down. Just total, unqualified jubilation that another corrupt DEM / DEI government official had been caught red handed.

Now Trump is dismissing the charges because Adams has bent the knee, and those remarks are forgotten and all is well.

This place never ceases to amaze me.

Who knows the truth, but I agree w your premise. Was odd that charges were filed after he voiced concerns over migrants.

That may all be true. But do you actually blame Adam’s kidney? Of course he is going to bend the knee to Trump. His party told him to believe in what we believe in or we will put you in jail. The new Dem way. Part of the reason Trump was elected my friend.

interesting to say the least but carry on

Having been a victim of lawfare, Trump doesn't like it. Clearly, Adams pissed off the wrong people and was targeted. Targeted prosecutions for political reasons are evil, and if the president believes that Adams was the victim of lawfare he is completely justified killing the investigation. People aren't used to the president running the country like a true executive.

Adams is a crooked politician. The evidence is overwhelming. The POTUS is walking him for political gain.

It’s not any more complicated than that.

You’re ignoring the evidence against Adams. It’s ridiculous. He wasn’t even slick about the bribes.

He sucked at bribery.

I haven’t cared enough to dig into the facts. I will say the timing is suspicious. 2 things can be true. Some level of guilt and targeting by the Biden administration. Of course I can’t prove this, but my thought is that Biden has Adams back if he hadn’t stepped out of line. Trump probably feels (rightfully so) the dems are/have been way out of complicating interfering with deportations. Right or wrong, He’s going to pursue his campaign promise aggressively.

BTW, would lbe interesting to hear your take on new revelations surrounding the classified docs case ? Haven’t dug into that yet either. On the surface, appears timeline is different/earlier than initially claimed ? Also appears the archives felt they were working towards a resolution but White House stepped in ?

Ok. This was known all the way back to 2012. Why the charges after he went against the party? They knew this. I will hang up and listen.

It is way more complicated than that. Biden pardoned eleventy billion people before he left. This guy hasn’t even been found guilty yet. Evidence or not, political lawfare isn’t going to be tolerated.

He didn't voice concern. He asked Biden to pay for the illegals flooding his city.

 

[Papapete11]

We are really complaining about dropping charges on Adam's? Really? All you got?

Want me to start slinging the shady shit JoeB the Clown Show did?

I'll just say Hunter to start with.

First, I'm not defending corrupt pols and wish we had all levels of government staffed with saints but we know a certain amount of corruption is baked into the system and both parties are guilty. So, I'm not saying Adams is clean. What I will say is his misdeeds have been known for a while and seem fairly small on the government corruption scale.

Now, if we start arresting pols left and right for taking discounted travel perks and foreign contributions, I'd be offended by Adams' actions. However, it appears he was playing politics by the way the rules were enforced instead of by the letter and the prosecutors didn't get serious until he bucked the system. So yeah, there was some politics involved in dropping the charges but it's my belief that politics were involved in charging him as well. It just seems to me like the government brought a huge boat to catch a small fish.
