Six officials with the Department of Justice resigned, declining to drop federal charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams.
On Thursday (February 13), six senior officials in the Department of Justice resigned rather–including acting U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Danielle Sassoon—tendered their resignation in protest over an order to drop the federal corruption charges against New York City Mayor Eric Adams. The resignations have rocked the DOJ and sent a clear message to the administration of President Donald Trump.
