The FBI has raided the homes of two of New York City Mayor Eric Adams' top aides.

Agents stormed the homes of First Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright and Deputy Mayor for Public Safety Phil Banks at 5am on Wednesday, The City reports.

The raids unfolded in tandem at Wright's Hamilton Heights townhouse and Banks' Hollis property.

The reason for the raids currently remains unclear, but both officials reportedly had their electronic devices seized.

It comes after the FBI took Mayor Adams' cell phone and laptop and raided the home of his campaign treasurer, Brianna Suggs, last November amid an investigation into his 2021 campaign.

The searches were part of a probe by the Manhattan US attorney into whether Adams' campaign had conspired to obtain illegal foreign donations via a kickback scheme involving the Turkish government.

In February, the two Bronx homes of top Adams confidante Winnie Greco were also raided as part of a probe by the Brooklyn US attorney.

Adams has continuously denied any wrongdoing. In July, he and his campaign, along with City Hall, were issued a grand jury subpoena.

Wright was a former boss of United Way and was among Adams' first appointments when he took office.

She has now become the most senior Adams aide to have her home searched.

She is engaged to schools chancellor David Banks', who is Phil Banks' brother.

There seems to be allowed of raids or arrests of top aides for New York polictians. What is going on in NY?

Of course you don't care that the Democrat mayor of the biggest Democrat city in America is a criminal. You're a Democrat voter.

You claim to be a libertarian voter in another country, but you suckle at the teat of all US republicans. The only issue that I might care about regarding the NYC mayor is the bussing of migrants to that city. I agree with that though as long as the migrants are okay with NYC being the destination.

Unlike you I don't pretend to give a shit about things that have zero effect on my life. You live to bitch about issues in another country because you want to feel like you are involved in something. It's pathetic.

That dude should have never went to Central America learned what was really going on with immigration and spoke up. The Global Machine will not tolerate such insubordination. They are almost all corrupt, but those that don't fall in line, get the FBI.

Early Wednesday morning, federal agents fanned out across the city with search warrants and subpoenas, seizing electronic devices belonging to Sheena Wright, the first deputy mayor; her fiance David Banks, the schools chancellor; Phil Banks, the deputy mayor for public safety; their brother Terence Banks, a consultant; and Tim Pearson, a mayoral adviser with significant influence within City Hall. The Feds also seized devices belonging to Edward Caban, the police commissioner; Caban’s brother, James; Caban’s chief of staff; and some precinct commanders in Manhattan.

Sources also told The News that phones were confiscated from officers in the 10th precinct, which includes nightlife-heavy Chelsea and Hell’s Kitchen. Assistant NYPD Chief James McCarthy, who oversees operations for the Manhattan South district that includes the 10th precinct, got his phone taken by the feds as well, as did Raul Pintos, Commissioner Caban’s chief of staff, the sources confirmed.
