Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) said Sunday that New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) has become the Trump administration’s “own political pawn.”

“They have literally taken the mayor of New York City, who was facing and is facing serious charges of bribery, which were going to be expanded, and they have turned him into their own political pawn,” Klobuchar told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union.”

“And they have done this by trying to force career prosecutors in the Justice Department to drop the charges against him,” she added.
