    I have a feeling Judge Ho might not see eye to eye with Emil Bove on political expedience trumping the interests of justice wrt prosecuting a strong public corruption case.

    Something short of an outright dismissal, will be interesting to see the order

    A federal judge has vacated the upcoming trial date for New York City Mayor Eric Adams, but declined to immediately dismiss the charges all together in a case that has roiled the Justice Department.

    Judge Dale Ho, however, is appointing conservative attorney Paul Clement to present arguments challenging the Justice Department’s decision to drop charges against Adams.

    Like I said:::they're going to keep this on life support as long as possible...there is no reason to end it and take the risk of Adams clearing out the dead beat illegals at Trump's behest. And Adams is all for it staying on life support as well. "I can't help it, Mr. President. I can't do anything until I'm cleared by the Governor."
    If he wins reelection the Governor will continue to stall. If Adams loses, the deal twixt Trump/Adams is null and the new Mayor will be a hard ass illegal lover.

    ***If they can find a link, a glimmer of heat back to the President in a Watergate fashion, they'll run like the wind with it.

    former Solicitor general Paul Clement recommends dismissal with prejudice

    Clement noted that if Ho were to deny the motion, prosecutors "could quite literally run out the speedy-trial clock," leaving him with no choice
    If he sought to compel the prosecution, "it would leave the President with one last card to play—namely, the pardon power"

    True, but it was worth the old college try.

    (They) saw thru it though in quick order and put the kibosh on it, toot-sweet.

    Your side ain't no country preachers that's for damn sure.

    Yeah, he got the fear of prison deep in his Black bones and is done. done-done. (They) tried that same tact on Trump's White bones. What'd DJT do? Made President again. "How's that for wet work, huh?"

    Fredo's brother will be the new Mayor, and Fredo will get a fresh hand down.

    Remember the crypto bro who tortured the Italian tourist for his Bitcoin passkey?

    There's an Eric Adams connection

    "
    Two NYPD members, including a detective on Mayor Eric Adams' security detail have been placed on modified desk duty after links surfaced to the two crypto businessmen charged with kidnapping an Italian tourist, sources tell News 4

    The detective allegedly provided security for the Prince Street townhouse where the Italian man was held and it's believed he may have picked up the tourist from the airport and brought him to SoHo, sources tell News 4

    City Hall said it is "disturbed by these allegations" and the investigation into the officer's behavior is ongoing"

    this is very Eric Adams

    weird from every angle

    During the interview, conducted on the porch of Gracie Mansion, Mr. Adams sat on a patio sofa and smoked cigars with Amber Rose, a conservative influencer, OnlyFans model and a former paramour of Ye, formerly known as Kanye West. His son, Jordan Coleman, sat nearby.Mr. Adams did not say anything that seemed a departure from most of his recent stances, but it was not what he said that drew criticism; it was that he said it to Sneako, whose real name is Nicolas Kenn De Balinthazy. A day before the interview, Sneako wrote that “Israel is not compatible with Western civilization” on the social media site X.

    Representative Ritchie Torres, Democrat of the Bronx, said Sneako was “one of the most virulent antisemites in the world of alternative media.”

    “There is no excuse for the mayor meeting with him, let alone gracing him with cigars at Gracie Mansion,” he said.

    On Monday, Mr. Adams stressed he did not make or endorse any antisemitic comments during the interview and reiterated his support for Jewish New Yorkers.

    “The Jewish residents of this city know where I am. They know what my voice is, and they know that there has not been a stronger voice in politics on fighting against antisemitism,” the mayor said. “No one has done what I’ve done as the mayor of the city.”

    Eric Adams sued by another high-up ex-NYPD officer

    In his suit, Mr. Donlon claims in his brief time in charge to have “uncovered systemic corruption and criminal conduct being perpetrated by the N.Y.P.D.’s leadership.” He says that when he reported his findings to the mayor, Mr. Adams “condoned the misconduct,” allowing wrongdoing to continue.

    The spectacle of a former New York police commissioner — the third of four in Mr. Adams’s first term — accusing the mayor and his close allies of corruption reflects the chaos that has plagued America’s largest police force.

    “Mayor Adams dismantled the N.Y.P.D.’s chain of command and handed the department to a cabal of cronies and criminals,” said John Scola, a lawyer for Mr. Donlon. “The result is a demoralized force where integrity is punished.”

    more straw campaign donations

    “The Adams campaign in May once more accepted funds from individuals who appear to be straw donors & submitted them to the city’s $8-to$1 public matching dollars program. Two individuals…told THE CITY they are unemployed and did not give to Adams or any other candidate.”

    top Adams administration figures keep drawing heat

    Mayor Eric Adams’ closest longtime advisor, Ingrid Lewis-Martin, sold off her influence to a wide variety of interests, taking free catering, cash, home renovations and other gifts in exchange for her help eliminating bureaucratic hurdles for developers and steering lucrative contracts to select vendors, prosecutors charged Thursday.


    The breadth of her alleged perfidy was breathtaking: funneling contracts for migrant shelter sites to favored developers, fast-tracking development projects and a permit for one developer’s karaoke bar, altering a street design that was to have included protected bike lanes.


    In return, she received cash, home renovations and thousands of dollars of free catering for events she held at Gracie Mansion. Her son, Glenn Martin II, allegedly received $50,000 in cash diverted from a city contract, according to the charges unsealed by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
    Four separate indictments leveled conspiracy, bribery and other charges against six defendants: Lewis-Martin and her son; Jesse Hamilton, another close associate of Adams whom the mayor put in charge of city leases; businessman Tian Ji Li and developer Yechiel Landau; and Gina and Anthony Argento, co-owners of Broadway Stages, a film and TV production company that got Lewis-Martin to intervene to cancel street-safety alterations on McGuinness Boulevard they opposed.
    The new indictment is the second for Lewis-Martin and her son, both of whom Bragg charged last December in a separate case in which they are alleged to have pressured city bureaucrats to do favors for two developers trying to get their real estate projects approved.

    A former top City Hall advisor and current campaign confidante to Mayor Eric Adams attempted to give money to a reporter from THE CITY following a campaign event in Harlem Wednesday.


    The failed payoff — a wad of cash in a red envelope stuffed inside an opened bag of Herr’s Sour Cream & Onion ripple potato chips — was made by Winnie Greco, a longtime Adams ally who resigned last year from her position as the mayor’s liaison to the Asian community after she was targeted in multiple investigations. She resurfaced recently as a consistent presence in his re-election campaign.

    Red Envelopes With Cash Are Changing Hands at Adams Campaign Rallies


    New York Times reporters witnessed supporters of Mayor Eric Adams handing out cash-filled envelopes. Sometimes, that money went to reporters from Chinese-language outlets.

    Bob Clark, VP of marketing for Herr Foods, Inc., said the company was surprised to see it was mentioned in the press.

    “While we can’t speak to the details of the story,” he said, “we can confirm that our Sour Cream & Onion flavor is money.”
