Paranoid police officials meeting in parking lots as fed raids leave NYPD, City Hall in shock
https://nypost.com/2024/09/10/us-new...-lots-sources/
{Craig McCarthy & Steve Janoski | 10 September 2024}
The feds’ stunning raids on Mayor Eric Adams’ top administration officials and closest political allies have left the NYPD and City Hall in a state of shock — with paranoid police brass meeting in parking lots, sources said on Tuesday.
Several police executives were spotted Monday meeting in the fenced-off, secured lot instead of inside One Police Plaza, with law enforcement sources telling The Post that they’re afraid NYPD headquarters is bugged and their words are being recorded.
“The feds are telling us they can get to anybody, anytime, anywhere,” one source said of last week’s raids. “And that is unprecedented.”
The mayor himself — who’s had several different phone numbers and is known for using the encrypted messaging app Signal — has kept up his practice, with one City Council source saying the last number they had for Hizzoner was “two phones ago.”
Officials and administrators have also boosted their longstanding bug sweeps of NYPD HQ — as well as several city vehicles, including any used by the mayor, sources said.
Even before last week’s tumult, they had made daily rounds to ensure there were no hidden recording devices inside the building or the vehicles, sources said.
But as the level of concern inside the administration has risen, so too has the frequency of the sweeps.
Political sources said Ingrid Lewis-Martin, the mayor’s chief adviser, has scolded people who might be saying a bit too much over possibly recorded lines.
“Don’t say that on the phone!” sources recalled her telling them during phone conversations.
Her apparent hesitation to do business over the phone emerged after a Manhattan District Attorney’s Office wiretap caught several people in the Adams administration, with the probe resulting in the indictment of ex-city Department of Buildings head Eric Ulrich on charges of taking bribes in exchange for political favors in September 2023. He has pleaded not guilty.
The following month, Manhattan federal prosecutors’ investigation into Adams’ 2021 campaign came to light with the raid on the Brooklyn home of his fundraiser Brianna Suggs, who has been dubbed Lewis-Martin’s political “goddaughter.”
The more recent raids are also tied to probes out of the Southern District of New York, but sources said they involve sweeping corruption and influence peddling — and have resulted in an aura of absolute paranoia.
Some officials have even equated the feds’ shock-and-awe-style campaign to the London Blitz — the Germans’ ferocious, months-long bombing campaign against the United Kingdom that sought to drive the Brits out of World War II.
“The NYPD is the mayor’s most important agency, the agency he knows best,” one source said. “And [the feds] sent the message that they could take out its critical infrastructure.”
Among those ensnared by the federal dragnet are Police Commissioner Edward Caban, Deputy Mayor for Public Safety Phil Banks, Schools Chancellor David Banks and First Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright, law enforcement sources have said.
Federal agents showed up at their homes early last Wednesday, waving warrants and seizing their electronic devices.
The feds have also targeted Phil and David Banks’ brother, Terence Banks — a former MTA official who has turned to consulting work — and top Adams aide Timothy Pearson, who has had his phone subpoenaed, among many others.
No one has been accused of wrongdoing.

While they're at it, can the FBI also raid the homes of Obama, Biden, and Clinton as well?

I'm sure nothing will come of this - either because it isn't true ... or because it is.

New York mayor Eric Adams faces calls to resign after corruption charges
Democrats including Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez say mayor should step down as federal agents search official residence

The New York City mayor, Eric Adams, faced mounting calls for his resignation Thursday as federal agents launched a pre-dawn raid on the mayor’s Manhattan mansion and he was indicted on corruption charges.
Federal agents early on Thursday swept in to search Adams’s official residence, a stunning move that capped a lengthy corruption investigation into whether the mayor and others may have conspired with the Turkish government to funnel illegal foreign money into his campaign coffers.
The indictments alleges Adams took illegal campaign contributions and bribes from foreign nationals in exchange for favors that included helping Turkish officials get fire safety approvals for a new diplomatic building in the city.
The search at Gracie Mansion on the Upper East Side began at about 6am, just hours before the US attorney for the southern district of New York and officials from the FBI and the city’s department of investigation were expected to announce federal charges against Adams and unseal the indictment against him.
The news radio station 1010 Wins reported that the charges against Adams were probably under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (Fara). Authorities have also sought information about Adams’s interactions with Israel, China, Qatar, South Korea and Uzbekistan, according to the New York Times.
The outlet, citing a search warrant, reported in early November 2023 that federal authorities were investigating the possible acceptance by Adams’s 2021 campaign of illegal donations, including by the Turkish government.
Adams, a Democrat who would become the first of the city’s 110 mayors to be criminally charged while in office, said he expected to be charged with federal crimes and declared he was innocent. He added that if charges were filed they would be “entirely false, based on lies”. He vowed to remain in office while fighting them.
Members of the Democrats’ progressive wing, including the Bronx representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, called for Adams to resign.
Ocasio-Cortez said that after the resignation of several city officials, including the police commissioner, “I do not see how Mayor Adams can continue governing New York City.”
“For the good of the city, he should resign,” Ocasio-Cortez said.
The New York comptroller, Brad Lander, said Wednesday was “a sad day for New Yorkers”, after news of the indictment broke, and that “the most appropriate path forward” was for Adams to step aside.
The city’s financial management chief, who plans to run against Adams in 2025, added that Adams deserved the presumption of innocence but said: “It is clear that defending himself against serious federal charges will require a significant amount of the time and attention needed to govern this great city.”
The Manhattan borough president and mayoral candidate Scott Stringer said the mayor should step down so other leaders could “focus on the business of the city”.
“His fight is not our fight,” Stringer said.
But other members of the city council had mixed reactions. Oswald Feliz said he was “not there yet” in calling for Adams to step aside.
The Brooklyn progressive Chi Ossé said: “Corrupt cop Eric Adams needs to resign. This started as a corruption probe into his campaign and now half of the leadership is out of commission. I’m not going to lie – they look guilty.
“More importantly, no one is running our city right now. Our schools, healthcare, police have no leadership. This city of 9 million people need someone steering the ship.”
City council members including Tiffany Cabán, Alexa Avilés, Shekar Krishnan, Lincoln Restler, Chris Banks and Bob Holden have also called on Adams to resign.
If Adams is forced out of office, the city’s public advocate, Jumaane Williams, would become mayor and would need to hold an election within 80 days.
The indictment came as the city is filled with foreign diplomats for the UN general assembly, including some who Adams may have had dealings with.
Shortly before the announcement, Adams appeared at a reception in New York at the Metropolitan Museum of Art attended by Joe Biden and Jill Biden, both of whom made remarks. Adams did not address the gathering.
New York city hall has been in a state of upheaval for the past month. The police commissioner, Edward Caban, resigned earlier this month after FBI agents seized his phone. Days later, Adams’s chief legal adviser resigned, saying she could “no longer effectively serve” in the position.
This week, the city’s public schools chancellor, David Banks, said he would retire at the end of the year. His phone had already been seized.
The only elected New York official with the power to force Adams aside is the New York governor, Kathy Hochul, and she has yet to comment on the developments.

Assuming that an administration isn't corrupt, I would argue that it's nearly impossible to stay compliant with every rule, regulation, law etc.
"They" can always get you on some kind of technicality.
For civilians, they'll unleash the IRS.
If you have a simple W2, you might be alright.
If your taxes are the least bit complicated, they'll find something.
