about well at the top of the list we've got mayor Eric Adams now Adams is a former NYPD officer Brooklyn burough president and now he's the 110th mayor of New York City dude's got a long history in public service now when we talk about the FBI investigating New York City corruption let's start with the mayor the FBI has a federal probe against the mayor of New York City for alleged corruption check it out sign ific development in the corruption investigation into mayor Eric Adams's 2021 campaign Federal prosecutor subpoena the mayor last month requesting more information in a pro we first learned about N9 months ago TBS news New York was able to confirm that the subpoenas seek information in a number of areas including the mayor's travel with his AIDS plus campaign financing dating back to 2021 in November of last year we reported on the FBI raiding the home of the mayor's then fundraiser Briana sug it's believed that this latest round of subpoenas likely tie into that case Adams has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing in fact in a recent statement a spokesperson wrote quote to be clear we have not identified any evidence of illegal conduct by the mayor so now we know there's a federal probe into the mayor's campaign activities and his stuff was all subpoena but here's what things get wild two of the mayor's top AIDS were recently raided by the FBI and I think last week the first Deputy Mayor Shawn Wright and the deputy mayor for Public Safety Philip Banks III now these aren't just some random colleagues they're family now the first Deputy Mayor Wright is engaged to David Banks who happens to be the school Chancellor and Philip Banks is the brother of David Banks now this is how everything went down on September 4th 2024 the FBI showed up to the homes of Sienna Wright and Philip Banks in the early morning hours they weren't there for coffee and donuts obviously they were there for the electronic devices more specifically their phones the feds are digging into some serious allegations allegedly and when the phones start getting seized you know things start getting heated up now Philip Banks isn't the only one tied up in this but both his brothers are also involved David Banks again as mentioned before with school Chancellor and his other brother Terrence Banks who is an independent consultant it's a full-on family affair in this FBI investigation now we haven't moved on to the police commissioner whose information was also subpoena but I want to Ste in fill up than for a second because the investigation seems to be about a bribery Scandal check it out the investigation into deputy mayor for Public Safety Philip Banks involves a bribery scheme and his brother Terrence Banks who runs a Consulting business CBS News New York has learned that Banks's firm the Pearl Alliance represents companies that have contracts worth hundreds of thousands of dollars with a number of City agencies last week federal agents ra the homes of Philip Banks the school's chancellor and also David Banks the school's chancellor excuse me the banks Brothers have said that they are cooperating with this investigation okay let me pause

the description and in the pin comment now back to the video now here's where things get even more interesting one of the main targets seems to be NYPD commissioner Eddie kaban the FED seized his phone last week and now people are saying he should resign on the 14th floor of NYPD headquarters pressure is mounting barely a year after he was sworn in as the city's first Latino Police Commissioner Edward caban is facing pressure to resign it's a very different world when you are the head law enforcement officer so if there's a shadow over you it really casts a shadow over the whole department Queen's council member Robert Holden is urging caban to step down after Revelations that the FBI had seized his phones and his computer along with the electronics of half a dozen of his subordinates if there's some cronyism going on within the NYPD that's got to be weed it out and hopefully the feds do that sources say the Justice to barbin is investigating The nypd's Nightlife enforcement practices for possible corruption within the ranks the commissioner's twin brother James on the right owns a nightlife Consulting business and his devices were also seized now obviously the mayor is going to be asked about the police commissioner should he resign or are you going to fire him and here's what the mayor had to say with a growing federal investigation developing highest levels of the Adams Administration one of the targets Police Commissioner Edward caban says he has no plans to resign and the mayor whose troubles also include that bout of Co tried to defend his stewardship of the city I want to assure you that I feel the awesome weight of that responsibility with my whole heart and I would never do anything to betray your trust the virtual briefing in front of posters boasting of dropping crime rates 5 days after the feds seized the phones of NY PD commissioner Eddie caban sources tell news4 investigators are looking into whether Cab's twin brother James may have sought payments from City nightclub owners in exchange for special protection from police I don't know of James caban U that well um I know he's the brother of the commissioner and we exchange pleasantries when we see each other as I do with everyone speculation has grown the commission is on his way out I asked the mayor are you firing him is he resigning I I communicated with the commissioner yesterday and you know as I've always stated I don't go into private conversations and whatever uh new changes in administrations uh that an Administration that will be made um when they come about we will we will announce them so let me just recap what's going on the mayor is under FBI investigation his top AIDS literally the number two and number three person are under FBI investigation the head of the schools the head of the New York City School System the chancellor his stuff has been subpoenaed and taken by the FBI the police commissioner the head of the police department his stuff has been taken and seized by the FBI his brother the police commissioner's brother is under investigation for taking bribes allegedly and things have even gotten worse because as of the making of this video the NYPD police commissioner has has resigned a short time ago I accepted the resignation of the NYPD commissioner Edward caban the mayor's brief video address less than an hour after his embattled police commissioner sent a resignation letter Eddie caban writing the news around recent developments has created a distraction for our department and I am unwilling to let my attention be on anything other than our important work or the safety of the men and women of the NYPD for the good of this city and this Department I have made the difficult decision to resign as police commissioner I respect his decision and I wish him well so this is a wide ranging federal investigation into high levels of corruption at both the NYPD and top levels of city government which is insane so at the end of the day let me know what you think do you think the mayor and all of his team should just step down and resign do how do you think they can run the city with everybody all the top people in the city essentially under FBI investigation their things being seized their houses being raided this is essentially a nightmare for the City of New York now as always I'm going to keep following this story and see where it takes us because you know me public corruption is my thing on this channel now don't forget to like share subscribe do all that great YouTube stuff my name is Nate the lawyer and I'm going to see you in the next one peace
