President-elect Trump Considers Pardoning NYC Mayor Adams, Citing Unfair Treatment Amid Bribery Charges
Dec 16, 2024, 05:27 PM
President-elect Donald Trump said he would consider pardoning New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who is facing federal charges of bribery, fraud, and soliciting illegal foreign campaign donations. Speaking at a press conference in Palm Beach, Florida, Trump stated, 'Yeah, I would. I think that he was treated pretty unfairly.' He acknowledged, 'I would have to see it because I don't know the facts,' but also noted, 'I said, "You know what? He's going to be indicted soon," and a few months later he got indicted.' Trump suggested that Adams' vocal criticism of the city's migrant crisis may have led to his legal troubles. His comments indicate a potential presidential intervention in the high-profile case involving the Democratic mayor, underscoring tensions over immigration policies.
