For months, Donald Trump has done something Kamala Harris has refused to do: hold a press conference. The vice president is being interviewed, but it\u2019s vapid stuff, almost all done with uber-friendly outlets like MSNBC and CNN. Trump spoke to the press for nearly an hour at Trump Tower, where he was asked about the indictment against New York City Mayor Eric Adams. Trump said he didn\u2019t know the intricacies of the case but said that he felt the mayor would be indicted after he warned that the endless stream of migrants would destroy New York City.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI watched about a year ago when he talked about how the illegal migrants are hurting our city,\u201d said the former president. \u201cAnd I said, ‘You know what, he’ll be indicted within a year.’ And I was exactly right,\u201d added Trump.\u00a0<\/p>\n

TRUMP ON NYC MAYOR ERIC ADAMS: “I watched about a year ago when he talked about how the illegal migrants are hurting our city…and I said, ‘you know what, he’ll be indicted within a year.’ And I was exactly right.”<\/p>\n

He then went on to criticize the Democrats for politicizing the justice system to come after their enemies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what Adams said about the illegal alien invasion<\/a> in September of 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Then again, Adams said this and later gave these people $53 million in pre-paid credit cards<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Exactly one year ago, Mayor Eric Adams admitted (off-script) that migrants are “destroying NYC”<\/p>\n

Adams was slapped with a five-count indictment yesterday that alleged the mayor took bribes, engaged in fraudulent activities, and took illegal campaign donations (via NYT<\/a>):\u00a0<\/p>\n

The indictment, which was unsealed on Thursday morning after a search of the mayor\u2019s official residence, Gracie Mansion, followed an investigation that started in 2021. Prosecutors said the scheme began when he was a top elected official in Brooklyn and continued after he became mayor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The judge in the case, Dale E. Ho, ordered Mr. Adams to appear on Friday at noon for an arraignment before a federal magistrate judge, but a lawyer for Mr. Adams asked the judge to move the hearing to early next week. When the arraignment takes place, Mr. Adams will be formally informed of his rights and will enter a plea, presumably of not guilty.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The investigation focused on whether Mr. Adams, 64, had conspired with the Turkish government to receive illegal foreign campaign contributions in exchange for acting on its behalf.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Damian Williams, the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, said that Mr. Adams had been \u201cshowered\u201d with gifts that he knew were illegal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThis was a multiyear scheme to buy favor with a single New York City politician on the rise: Eric Adams,\u201d Mr. Williams said at a news conference. \u201cYear after year, he kept the public in the dark.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mr. Williams discussed the indictment moments after Mr. Adams finished a raucous news conference at Gracie Mansion surrounded by supporters. Mr. Adams cast himself as a victim and urged New Yorkers to be patient.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He said he would not resign despite numerous calls from elected officials \u2014 and hecklers who constantly interrupted and called him a disgrace. \u201cI ask New Yorkers to wait to hear our defense,\u201d said Mr. Adams, a Democrat.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If Mr. Adams is convicted of all five counts in the indictment, the maximum penalty under law would be 45 years in prison.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
