"FBI Investigation Threatens NYC Mayor Eric Adams' Political Future"
Mayor Eric Adams and City Hall's chief counsel are demanding that the FBI cease leaks of its investigation into campaign financing, as new details emerge about text messages between the mayor and Turkey's consul general. The FBI is investigating whether Adams' 2021 campaign funneled illegal foreign money from Turkey. Adams forwarded a text from the consul general to the then-FDNY commissioner, asking him to look into a certificate of occupancy issue. Adams has not been accused of wrongdoing and is cooperating with investigators. City Hall hopes investigators will reprimand any federal officer who has improperly leaked details about the investigation.
