New York City Mayor Eric Adams was indicted Thursday on federal charges for taking illegal campaign contributions and bribes from foreign nationals in exchange for favors that included helping Turkish officials bypass a fire safety inspection for a new diplomatic tower in the city.

These contributions and bribes included lavish overseas trips.

On Thursday morning, Adams said he won’t resign, causing KIRO Newsradio host Dave Ross to question whether or not there are any legal consequences for politicians who continue to lie even after they've been caught lying.
