As per the New York City charter, New York State Governor Hochul can remove the Mayor of New York City at any time she chooses. God only knows after he accepted the corrupt Quid Pro Quo with the DOJ why she hasn't yet. Last asked she said : "I have to think about it". As Democrats and Americans we're still nowhere. We haven't even gotten up off the mat yet, while it all continue to burn.
On what grounds? Did they elaborate?
He agreed to do a bunch of shady shit for the fascist regime in exchange for evading justice. The regime made that clear but obviously didn't specify exactly what shady shit.
And they're trying to dismiss the charges without prejudice so they can charge him again if he doesn't do what they want.
It's unfair to investigate the crimes of someone that's trying to commit more crime.
They need a politician to open the flood gates of NYC to ICE nazis. The harder to understand pardon is Rod Blagoyevich because he no longer holds any power in Illinois.
"He let us steal 20M from NYC FEMA"
the grounds are he likes trump
DOJ is trying to dismiss the charges without prejudice so they can have leverage over Adams. I think the funniest option would be for the judge to dismiss with prejudice, removing their leverage and clearing the way for the state to bring charges against Adams without worrying about interfering with the feds.
So....Friday Night Massacre.....
Anyone know how new yorks electorate is... I mean I know they loved Juliani, but that was with him being a rock star durring 9/11. This clown doesn't actually stand a chance in a re-election does he?
NYC is "Democrat," but they're historically liberal rather than progressive. Which is why they ended up with mayors like Bloomberg, and this clown...
New York State is more diverse in opinion... But I'm not sure I see them choosing an open Trumper as Governor.

I mean the trump is just the tip of the iceburg isn't it. I mean he was pretty much cartoonish corruption that he was pretty much dead to rights on.
