Mayor Eric Adams caught handing envelopes with money to Chinese reporters for glowing campaign coverage

[Conservative from Georgia]

Holy crap, folks…Eric Adams’ crew is straight-up bribing Chinese reporters with cash-stuffed red envelopes at his rallies, all to lock in that sweet, biased coverage for his sinking ship of a campaign. We’re talking envelopes handed out by his cronies like Steven Tin and Robin Mui, who admit it’s to “subsidize” journalists and make sure they spin stories in Adams’ favor.

This isn’t culture; it’s corruption on steroids, with Adams’ adviser Winnie Greco even shoving money into a potato chip bag for a reporter. How is this guy still mayor?

Paywall. And I decline to support the NY Slimes financially.

Another article in a different NYC paper notes that Adams didn’t hand out anything to anyone and that his Adminstrarion denied knowledge of anyone having done so:

Mayor Adams’ supporters spotted handing out red envelopes with cash at 3 summer campaign events: report

Allies of Mayor Eric Adams were spotted at several July campaign events handing out red envelopes stuffed with cash to attendees, including journalists from Chinese-language outlets, according to a…

Yep. The thread headline is obviously a dishonest claim.

Mayor Adams was elected for a 4 years term in 2021, that's how he is still mayor.

But don't worry, your buddy Mamdani is going to win anyhow, so you have nothing to worry about. It is New York City and Mamdani's pledge to "globalize the intifada" (that is, exterminate the Jews) is going to capture the electorate's imagination.
