- New York City Mayor Eric Adams has publicly accused the Biden administration’s Department of Justice (DOJ) of employing “lawfare” tactics against political adversaries.
- Adams draws parallels between the DOJ’s actions towards him and former President Donald Trump, suggesting both are victims of politically motivated legal proceedings.
- “Lawfare” refers to the misuse of legal systems and principles to achieve a political or strategic advantage.
- Adams’s comments highlight growing tensions and accusations of political bias within the legal actions pursued by the DOJ.
- His statements reflect broader concerns among some political figures about the impartiality and motives behind certain high-profile investigations.
- The comparison to Trump’s treatment suggests Adams sees a pattern of targeting by the federal government against particular leaders or factions.
