Eric Adams, the first sitting mayor of New York City to be indicted in a major federal investigation, says that the federal government is targeting him because of the migrant crisis.

Mayor Eric Adams said he always knew that standing up for New Yorkers would make him a target, and now he feels he has become one. In a statement to The Post, he declared, "If I am charged, I am innocent, and I will fight this with all my strength."
