Eric Adams Leverages Biden Pardon to Defend Against Indictment Claims

TL;DR Summary
New York City Mayor Eric Adams has suggested that his federal indictment is a political retaliation for his criticism of President Biden's immigration policies.

Adams, a moderate Democrat, has often aligned with Republican narratives, claiming his indictment is a result of his stance on immigration and his defense of New Yorkers.
