Mayor Adams to meet with NYPD, Jewish leaders amid FBI investigation

New York City Mayor Eric Adams is set to meet with the FBI on Monday about threats to the Jewish community.

The meeting comes as members of the NYPD and his administration are under investigation by the FBI .

Last week, federal agents searched the homes of two of Adams’ deputy mayors and issued subpoenas to several close allies of the mayor.

Sources say the FBI seized evidence, including electronics as part of an ongoing investigation into possible corruption.

Meantime, on Sunday, Adams visited two Black churches in Brooklyn.

At Changing Lives Christian Center, he didn’t address the investigation but did compare himself to a religious biblical figure who endured immense suffering, but whose blessings were ultimately restored, Job.

“A reporter said to me this morning, ‘Do you feel you are being persecuted?’ I said, ‘No, I’m just in my Job moment.’ And when you come out of your Job moment and your faith is intact, you will receive blessing tenfold. Only God can make you go from being dyslexic, arrested, rejected and now I’m elected to be the mayor of the most powerful city on the globe,” Adams said.
