What the FBI seized from the home of New York City Mayor Eric Adams' top fundraiser
2023-11-04
[FOX] The home of a top fundraiser for New York City Mayor Eric Adams was raided by the FBI on Thursday morning with various electronic devices and paperwork confiscated in relation to a corruption investigation, according to The New York Times.

The federal agency searched the Brooklyn home of Brianna Suggs -- a 25-year-old campaign consultant for Adams – and seized three iPhones and two laptop computers, along with papers and other evidence.

Investigators also took something agents identified as a "manila folder labeled Eric Adams," as well as seven "contribution card binders" and other materials, the New York Times reported, citing a search warrant the publication had obtained.

The raid was part of an inquiry into whether foreign money was funneled into his mayoral campaign, the publication reported, although it is understood that Adams is not being directly investigated.

Fox News Digital reached out to the FBI for comment but had not received a response at the time of publication.

Thursday’s raid in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn thrust Adams into the national spotlight since he was on his way to a meeting with President Biden and other mayors to discuss the illegal migrant crisis – only to turn around and make a dash back to the Big Apple. Adams had earlier in the day posted a video clip of him sitting in a D.C. bound plane before news of the raid broke.

Young woman hired into the inner circle? Oh, I think she is probably quite good at her job, IYKWIM. Probably working angles since her teens.

#3  He was elected in 2022. She was even younger then. Why would you hire a consultant in their early 20’s? Whatever they are doing, they have no experience.

#1  "Chinatown" did you say? More on Ms. Suggs from the NYP:

In 2021, Suggs also started her own lobbying firm, Brianna Suggs & Associates Inc., which only attracted one client, a real estate group seeking to take over a city-owned mall in Manhattan’s Chinatown, record show.
