The Justice Department is reportedly considering dropping its corruption case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
Senior officials under President Donald Trump have reportedly held discussions with federal prosecutors about the possibility and have spoken to Adams’s defense team.
Adams was indicted in September on charges that included bribery, fraud and soliciting illegal foreign campaign contributions. He has pleaded not guilty and said he is being prosecuted because he criticized the Biden administration.
