    Adams left Washington abruptly. A widening corruption scandal greeted him in NYC. (msn.com)

    I'm sure this may need to be investigated and probably crimes were committed, but do any of you see the timing of this as odd?

    Adam's all supportive of allowing all into the country.
    New York gets overwhelmed with the number of migrants sent to them.
    Adam's speaks out about federal government not doing enough for past several months.
    Adam's is heading to DC to speak to other Governors and the federal government about more funds and doing something more for this situation.
    Adam's chief fund raiser has home raided by the FBI as his plane is landing in DC.
    Timing coincidental or a F around with us and find out moment.
    Thoughts?

    Eric Adams is a guy who lies for fun Trump-style and was corrupt long before he become mayor or said anything about immigration

    I’ve noticed a pattern with people of certain political leanings. Just throw out the question if something seems strange or looks weird. That’s enough to get the rabble rousing started. Meanwhile, strong evidence of crimes by their own party is dismissed… even audio confessions (e.g. Trump bragging about sharing classified information with uncleared people), because hey he could have been showing her a newspaper, right? Where is the proof that the confession wasn’t just bravado?

    Dude..... This is not about Trump!!
    This guy is a democrat that is the mayor of one of, if not the largest liberal city in this country. He totally supports all the migrants coming in until he has to deal with some of what Texas is dealing with. He speaks out for more help over past few months and as he lands in DC to meet about this, his top fund raiser's home is raided. I'm not at all saying what happened may not be criminal, all I'm asking is what do you think about the timing?

    So what do you think happened? The FBI planted evidence or the FBI has known about criminal activity and has been sitting on it until Biden gave them the go ahead?

    If they occasionally showed signs of balance by, say, criticizing their own party, they’d be taken seriously. I agree, some on the left are almost always predictable, but it’s far more prevalent on the right.

    Both sides do this. See Hunter Biden’s text messages.

    A lot of this is now tit for tat. This is what happens when both sides feel like the other won’t give them an inch. They won’t return an inch.

    If a Democrat is investigated - Prove he's corrupt!
    If a Democrat is investigated after criticizing the federal govt - Proves Biden is corrupt!

    The executive branch has been weaponized and out of control for decades. It's what happens when you have one elected official at the head of a vast unelected bureaucracy.

    -Whose decision was it to put 170ish tons of war material on the cruise liner Lusitania?
    -J Edgar Hoover and the Red Scare
    -Operation Northwoods
    -JFK's assassination
    -Iran/Contra
    -Everything that followed the Patriot Act
    -IRS targeting non-profits under Obama and political opponents under Trump (not to mention Nixon the O.G. of IRS targeting)
    -Ruby Ridge
    -Matt Hoover (IFKYK)
    -Forced Reset Triggers/Bump Stocks/Pistol Braces
    -MK Ultra
    -The Tuskegee Syphilis Study
    -Labeling parents who protest at school boards "Domestic Terrorists"
    -"Lock Her Up" was not just a campaign slogan

    Now watch as both right and left disagree with me.

    Unless JFK ordered himself killed, I don't know how that fits in with a "weaponized executive branch"

    No, I don't believe the FBI planted anything. I'm just questioning the timing, just as he was going to land in DC, have meetings with other Governors that have similar concerns for paying for all these migrants, and have discussions on the hill that would certainly be critical of this administration. If they violated the law, then by all means they should investigate and proceed as the evidence leads them. I just don't believe much in coincidences!

    So, you have no concern with timing of the raid?
    If not, that is fine, I'm just skeptical.

    Each sides penchant for finding a conspiracy underlying everything that government does exacerbated by social media rabbit holes will be the ruination of this country. (And I’m hardly a “blind trust” government guy)

    We’re not far off from our having your neighbor to the left say “good morning” as they pick up their mail while your neighbor to the right wonders what hidden meaning the greeting had while posting nefarious thoughts about it on the Next Door app.

    The difference is that if Hunter or Joe Biden are convicted of crimes I don’t have any reservations about them being punished in accordance with the law. I don’t think that Democrats are threatening civil war over it.

    none at all. continuation of an ongoing investigation of a criminal enterprise, just like the trump trials. they start at the bottom and then move up.

    I understand that. I was pointing out hypocrisy.

    So you aren’t even worried about criminality, just the timing? Then why have you assembled us all here today, Sir? What is the point?
