The article discusses significant resignations within the Justice Department regarding the corruption case against New York Mayor Eric Adams. These resignations symbolize a growing resistance to President Trump's influence over the Department and raise questions about the administration's ethical integrity. The most notable resignation was that of Danielle Sassoon, the acting U.S. Attorney, who refused to comply with an order to drop the case. The situation reflects a larger issue of governance and accountability under Trump's administration, contributing to a media scandal that the administration cannot easily dismiss.
The serial resignations represent the most high-profile public opposition so far to President Trump's tightening control over the Justice Department.
See how easy it is to make this administration look foolish in public? See how easy it is to cut the political legs out from under it based on its utter lack of ethics?
Sassoon resigned rather than follow an order from acting deputy attorney general Emil Bove to drop the prosecution against Adams for public corruption.
The stench of this one is going to linger.
