by Trump admin in order to escape charges.

This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.

8. Hold that thought. Liars, manipulators, gaslighters tell us what to do

and we're supposed to make decisions based on their distorted world. It is totally insane.

6. I don't disagree on this

But if he's thinking of running again - he'll lose.

[Wiz Imp]

11. He's definitely gonna try to run again

Word is he might run as a Republican. He should have no chance of winning regardless, but I suppose he could win a Republican primary to get on the ballot and be crushed in the general election in November.

New York City Mayor Adams discussed possible Republican primary run: NYT

[JustAnotherGen]

12. Oh - he will lose

Primary or GE - I don't think NYC is going to take any more of his shit.

9. What did Adams do? (25 words or less) Thanks.

10. So she clerked Scalia, that means that Roberts knows her.....

I'm wondering what the Supreme Court thinks of this, after you all they gave him immunity for his duties as you know what. Sorry I just can't think of him as anything butF47. Anyway, she is also a member of the federalist society as I think others on the Court are.

This will be interesting.
