Soon to be former New York Mayor Eric Adams has had public financing for his campaign denied because he failed to meet reporting requirements.
What, you mean that the guy who was indicted for taking and then covering up illegal campaign contributions is being held accountable for this crap?
Yippee:
A federal judge Friday upheld a decision to deny Mayor Eric Adams roughly $3.4 million in public money for his 2025 re-election campaign.
New York City's publicly funded campaign finance program offers candidates an eight-to-one match of tax dollars for every dollar raised by small local donors. But the system requires extensive disclosures to make sure candidates are following the law.
………
A federal judge in the Eastern District of New York said the indictment wasn’t the only issue holding up the money.
“The CFB provided two independent valid reasons for its decision to deny the Adams Campaign public matching funds,” U.S. District Court Judge Nicholas G. Garaufis wrote in a 61-page ruling, citing the mayor’s “failure to timely respond to the CFB's request for information” as well as a blown deadline to file a conflict of interest disclosure to the city.
Mess with the bull, you get the horns.
