Mayor Adams' legal defense fund has raised about $500,000: insider
[NYPOST] Mayor Adams’ legal defense fund has raised about $500,000, an insider close to the effort said.

Adams has been under a cloud since the FBI raided the home of his top fundraiser, Brianna Suggs, in November.

The federal probe is reportedly focused on whether Adams’ 2021 campaign improperly worked with the Ottoman Turkish government to funnel cash to his mayoral run.

Rumors of an indictment have swirled for weeks, but have so far come to nothing.

Legal defense fund donors, whose names are expected to be disclosed in mid-January, are limited to a maximum contribution of just $5,000.
293 of them, IIUC
Known donors and boosters to the fund so far include former Adams Chief of Staff Frank Carone; former Gov. David Paterson; the longtime head of the New York chapter of the NAACP, Hazel Dukes; the chief of the Brooklyn Democratic Party
...every time you hear the phrase white people, white supremacy, white anything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nasty to the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects...
