    IIRC, Sassoon was just a placeholder for the eventual Trump nominee, the two DOJ public integrity unit guys were acting as well

    All three attorneys who resigned had recently been tapped as "acting" by Trump's team

    Emil Bove did the Stringer Bell bit

    Hilarious that one of his first priorities was driving a crooked deal with a corrupt public official, but I guess that's just the headspace of Trump 2.0.

    the dismissal had nothing to do with the merits, this could be tricky territory for Bove

    Bondi might be better off just firing him before it all gets aired out

    three more have resigned from the DOJ Public Integrity Section



    Federal prosecutors in New York and Washington resign after refusing to drop Adams charges

    At least six prosecutors, including the acting U.S. attorney in Manhattan, have stepped down over the DOJ order to dismiss corruption charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams.

    it'll be interesting to see how this one hashes out

    my guess is Trumplandia will double and triple down on dumb because that's what y'all do.

    We made President again, by God.

    You all thought you were well shut of him. That'd you'd put him down like a rabid dog. Like Old Yeller.

    Uh, uh.

    God got holt of his hand in PA., and ain't turned loose of it since.

    God did that.

    God

    maybe Scalia is too far to the left now

    he belongs to the previous woke US regime

    I can't believe it how there's such a thing as kryptonite on an anonymous board

    why not bloviate and deflect like all the other threads?

    tl;dr

    SDNY has all the texts and emails with agents of Turkey, and much more. The case against Adams is not a close case. They caught this crooked democrat with his hand in the cookie jar. $10 million in illicit matching funds IIRC, that's just one count.

    Don't take my word, read through the thread

    Bove's argument is essentially that -- saying nothing of the merits or theories of the case -- the political priorities of the new president trump the interests of justice

    and a friendly mayor of NYC must be maintained in place, corrupt though he be, to contribute the president's sacred effort to deport ugly, dangerous foreigners from the USA...

    another way to put it

    there is no non-corrupt reason for dismissing Eric Adams’ case. The Trump DOJ is itself obstructing both justice and the rule of law.
