On the evening of
Sunday, February 9 during
halftime of the Super Bowl,
this: "Congressman Dan Goldman
will make an announcement
about the New York City
Mayor’s race. At 10:00 AM,
Goldman will hold a press
conference at City Hall Park."
Inner City Press
went. Rep Goldman was
endorsing Zellnor Myrie. Inner
City Press live
streamed and asked him
about the SDNY prosecutors
going to DC to speak with DOJ
(and Spiro) about (dropping?)
the Adams indictment. Rep
Goldman said they indicted it,
if strong to drop it would be
a miscarriage of justice.

Treasury data TRO in SDNY)
