Eric Adams: “I was indicted for calling a city agency to do a building…”

“And when you look at which I think is so important, people should really read my indictment. Not the headlines, but the actual indictment. I was indicted for calling a city agency to do a building inspection. And there's not one text message, not one communication from me that called for anyone to do anything improper. It was clear lawfare that I was speaking out against 237,000 migrants and asylum seekers coming to our city.” (55:44–55:51)
