I hope she sues the fuck out of them . NYPD is ICE thanks to Eric Adams.

NYPD has always been shit. Yes, it's probably worse now, but they've never been the good guys.

Eric Adams is so tough on crime!

In September 2024, a series of investigations into Adams's administration emerged. Adams was indicted on federal charges of bribery, fraud, and soliciting illegal foreign campaign donations. Adams pleaded not guilty to the charges. He alleged that the charges were retaliation for opposing the Biden administration's handling of the migrant crisis. In February 2025, the Department of Justice in the Donald Trump administration instructed federal prosecutors to drop charges against Adams. In April 2025 Judge Dale Ho dismissed the case against Adams with prejudice, meaning that charges cannot be refiled.
