. He had been under investigation for his fundraising efforts during his 2021 mayoral campaign, according to reports. The specific charges of his case are sealed and were not disclosed to the public.“My fellow New Yorkers, it is now my belief that the federal government intends to charge me with crimes,” Adams said. “If so, these charges will be entirely false, based on lies, but they would not be surprising.
“For months, leaks and rumors had been aimed at me in an attempt to undermine my credibility and paint me as guilty,” Adams said. The charges against New York City’s mayor follow several federal investigations and multiple resignations from top city officials in the last month, local media. The New York City Police Department commissioner, the city’s health commissioner, the mayor’s chief legal counsel, and the city’s chancellor of public schools recently tendered their resignations.
“I will fight these injustices with every ounce of my strength and my spirit. If I’m charged, I know I am innocent,” Adams declared. Despite his vow not to step down, Adams faced many calls for his resignation, including political rival and likely future mayoral candidate. “The flood of resignations and vacancies are threatening gov function. Nonstop investigations will make it impossible to recruit and retain a qualified administration. For the good of the city, he should resign.”“Now, if I am charged, many may say I should resign because I cannot manage the city while fighting the case,” Adams said.
