The FBI recently showed up at the home of Brianna Suggs. She’s an associate of New York City Mayor Eric Adams. She’s also a fundraiser for a mayor who has been increasingly critical of the “migrant” situation and the impact it is having on his sanctuary city.
The FBI is “investigating whether New York City Mayor Eric Adams’s 2021 campaign conspired with the Turkish government to receive illegal foreign donations.”
Investigators are looking into the potential involvement of a Brooklyn construction company with connections to Turkey and a small Washington, D.C.-based university that has ties to both Turkey and the New York City mayor, according to a search warrant obtained by the Times. The investigation is also focused on discerning whether Adams’s campaign kicked back benefits to the construction company’s officials and employees, and to Turkish officials.
Adams was on his way to The Capitol™ to discuss the “M-M-M-Migrant Crisis™” but, upon hearing of the raid, bailed on that trip and returned to the Big Crapple.
Anyone and everyone is insisting that the Mayor is not the target “nor if he accused of wrongdoing,” but it appears clear to me that someone is sending a message.
First, under tyrants and despots, even those posing as elected officials, you are assumed guilty of something or will be as needed. No one is innocent. The odds of being implicated turn on any number of points, including value to the regime (current or potential) and optics. Targeting “associates” is a convenient way of establishing that you can and will go after them and that those targeted could be offered the opportunity to rat you out for anything that can be imagined.
Lie for them, and they promise not to charge you with perjury, and even if it doesn’t go well, you could get a book deal.
Adams is not new to the game, so he must know this, but all he was after, as far as I can tell, was a shot at being Ukraine. How about a bailout? A few billion or whatever the presses can print while I’m in town. Please put it on a pallet. Stick it on a C130. Drop it off at Laguardia in the middle of the night. I’ll have someone there to collect it. And that will buy my silence for a few months. We’ll find a way to make it work. Please send me your uneducated and disease-infested, your terrorists, your drug cartel and gang members yearning to ruin America.
And this is New York. As with most Democrat-run urban plantations, it operates like a banana republic. If the UN brings aid, anyone who is anyone gets a piece, and if there’s any leftover, create a few photo-ops to reinforce the false hope. Adams needs to line some pockets, too. Elections don’t win themselves. So, the money, any money, will generate plenty of aid but not for the wretched huddled masses knocking on his door.
He’ll have to beg for more.
And that works, at least until or unless the FBI shows up to raid another supporter. Or maybe a bit closer to home.
It’s just a theory, but it’s only the first seal of the potential Adams Apocolypse. If the FBI shows up again with a CNN crew, he’ll know he’s in trouble.
