US president-elect also threatens legal action against Biden administration over sales of unused border wall parts

President-elect Donald Trump on Monday said in a far-ranging news conference that he would consider pardoning embattled New York Mayor Eric Adams. Separately he called on the Biden administration to stop selling off unused portions of border wall that were purchased but not installed during his first administration.

“Yeah, I would” consider pardoning Adams, Trump told reporters at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, before saying that he was not familiar with the specifics of the charges Adams is facing.
