In an alleged bid to dodge corruption charges, New York City Mayor Eric Adams teamed up with Trump's border czar, Tom Homan—an alliance Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) is calling "open, naked corruption."
Adams and Homan appeared on Fox & Friends Friday to promote a controversial deal allowing federal immigration authorities to operate at Rikers Island. The move comes as the Justice Department faces internal turmoil over its decision to drop corruption charges against Adams. Former Acting U.S. Attorney Danielle Sassoon, who resigned in protest, accused Adams of turning his legal troubles into a "quid pro quo" deal with the Trump administration.
