On Fox & Friends, Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade confronted NYC Mayor Eric Adams about the recent decision by the Department of Justice to drop corruption charges against him. The discussion highlighted former Acting U.S. Attorney Danielle Sassoon's resignation due to her disagreement with the DOJ’s direction. Adams rebutted allegations of quid pro quo related to immigration assistance, arguing that the charges were improperly dismissed for political reasons rather than any assessment of innocence. The segment emphasized the implications of this decision in the context of upcoming elections and ongoing immigration issues.
Think about that, think about my attorney, Alex Spiro, one of the top trial attorneys in the country. Imagine him going inside saying that, The only way Mayor Adams is going to assist in immigration' which I was calling for, for 2022 is if you drop the charges,' replied Adams. That's quid pro quo, that's a crime.
And what she said was, she said you offered to help with the migration problem and the immigration agenda in exchange for the case being dropped. Think about that, think about that.
When the Department of Justice dropped the charges, they said it's not because they think the charges were unjust or that you're innocent.
They articulated exactly that it's going to affect elections, that it's going to affect his reelection. And we think that was wrong.
