Phil Banks, deputy mayor and close Eric Adams pal, resigns, as does confidante Winnie Greco, while fed informing staffer was fired
|
[NYPOST] Scandal-plagued Deputy Mayor for Public Safety Phil Banks has resigned, succumbing to weeks of pressure amid federal probes that ensnared both him and his longtime friend Mayor Eric Adams
 ...Hizonner da Mare of Noo Yawk. As a Manchurian candidate, Hizonner was all in favor of law and order and that kind of stuff. Once in office, a bunch of his friends found cushy jobs with the city, the windows kept getting broken, and Soros-funded DA Alvin Bragg remained right where he was. Most people comfort themselves with the thought that he's not Bill di Blasio but that's pretty small comfort with kids who actually go to school getting bumped off while standing in front of them. But he's a Dem, so the rubes will vote for him next election too, so he's what they deserve...
, sources told The Post.
The resignation, which sources said was submitted Sunday night, is the latest high-profile departure from Adams' administration — and is certain to raise further questions about whether the mayor himself can endure after his historic federal indictment.
Over the past few weeks, Adams has scrambled to convince embattled top administration officials to depart with Gov. Kathy Hochul pressuring the mayor to clean house.
Longtime Adams confidante Winnie Greco resigns and staffer believed to be cooperating with feds is fired
[NYPOST] Two controversial City Hall staffers — including Winnie Greco, a longtime confidante to Mayor Eric Adams — were pushed out of their jobs Monday, The Post has learned.

Greco — who officials believe will potentially be indicted by the feds — resigned, while staffer Rana Abbasova, a key figure in the criminal case against Adams, was fired, sources said.
Two other staffers — Mohammad Bahi, the mayor's liaison to the Moslem community, and Ahsan Chutgai, his senior Moslem adviser — resigned in recent days, according to sources.
All four couldn't immediately be reached for comment. Attorneys for Abbasova and Greco did not return calls.
