If the indictment of New York Mayor Eric Adams is true, if he did indeed pressure the city’s fire department to approve a building without inspection in exchange for free travel and campaign funds from a foreign government, then that is worrisome, and the prosecution is justified.

Unfortunately the indictment of Adams fits into a larger pattern of Democrats who have criticized President Joe Biden suddenly finding themselves on the business end of a federal prosecution. This wouldn’t be noteworthy except for the fact that the Biden Justice Department has turned a blind eye to far worse allegations against Biden and his family.
