(The Center Square) — New York City Mayor Eric Adams is denying any wrongdoing but has lawyered up as the FBI continues to investigate his fundraising arm following the arrest of a key campaign organizer.
Last week, federal agents raided the home of Breanna Suggs as part of an investigation into whether Adams’ 2021 mayoral campaign conspired with a Brooklyn-based construction company to funnel foreign money into the campaign by way of a straw donor scheme.
But Adams denies any wrongdoing and claims that his campaign “followed the rules” during his run for mayor. He noted that neither he nor Suggs has been accused of crimes by state or federal authorities.
“I would be shocked if someone states that our campaign coordinated any illegal behavior,” the Democrat told reporters on Wednesday during a live-streamed briefing, where he was peppered with questions about the FBI probe. “I cannot tell you how much I start the day with telling my team ‘we’ve gotta follow the law.'”
But Adams cut short a meeting in Washington, D.C., with federal officials to discuss the migrant crisis to return home following the raid on Suggs home last week and told reporters Wednesday that he has hired a personal attorney. more here
another enemy of the people. will he at least admit to the number of boys he has raped?
“I’m shocked! Shocked I say!”
Yeah, he’s shocked anyone “states” it not that it was the plan all along. He’s a protected class, don’chaknow.
i’m a negro, i can do anything
Adams stepped outta line….

First thing a democRAT learns:
Cheat, Steal, Lie and Deny followed by Launder.
“Use our detergent Suggs. If that don’t work use our strongest detergent Fugg”
Bottom line, if yew can’t Sugg it, Fugg it!
Kudos to Redd Foxx
I don’t get it. Why is the FBI going after one of their own? This guy is a democrat, and black. Isn’t he supposed to be immune? And the MSM piling on? What the hell’s going on?
I don’t know about New York election law, but this is the whole reason that fed law requires a campaign treasurer. That’s the designated felon when they haven’t paid off whoever the Big Guy is at the time and somebody has to get busted. We can be pretty confident Adams has multiple layers of plausible deniability.
FBI /DOJ would have left Adams alone, but NO…he had to criticize Joey’s open border policy. So a message was sent out to other mayors and governors. This is how police states operate.
$6,000 is chump change in a multiple $Millon campaign.
They take much more in “unreported” cash throughout the campaign, $10s of thousands or more.
Looks like the FBI is trying to show their impartiality after weaponizing the agency against Trump and republicans.
Nothing will come it or a low level staffer will pay the price.
You dared to stray off the Demonrat plantation. you uppity negro.
How dare you openly critize your white master the Pedo?
Now the Massa gots to send a message to every other slave that dare to speak out against him.
Until blacks become smart enough to realize they are still slaves to the most racist white masters ever there is no hope for them.
I won’t hold my breath.
The feds are going after him because he is anti illegal criminal.
Uh Oh, the fibbies just seized his phone, Ipad, and a lap top.
That grinning piece of shit looks like he should be shining shoes at the airport, except he’s likely as incompetent at that as anything else.
