From the New York Times, it's the headlines.
I'm Michael Simon Johnson.
Today's Thursday, September 26.
Here's what we're covering.
My fellow New Yorkers.
It is now my belief that the federal government intends to charge me with crimes.
If so, these charges will be entirely false, based on lies.
The Times has learned that New York City mayor Eric Adams has been indicted as part of a federal corruption investigation.
As of early this morning, the indictment has not been made public, and it's unclear what exactly Adams is charged with.
But investigators have been focused in part on whether he and his campaign conspired with the turkish government to get illegal foreign donations.
For months, leaks and rumors have been aimed at me in an attempt to undermine my credibility and paint me as guilty.
Even before he was indicted, Adams released a defiant video statement preemptively denying any allegations.
I will fight these injustices with every ounce of my strength and my spirit.
