Why does the Department of Justice want to dismiss the corruption case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams?
The Department of Justice, now under Trump-aligned leadership, wants to dismiss the corruption case against Mayor Eric Adams so that he can resume helping President Trump with his immigration enforcement initiatives. This dismissal request represents an extraordinary departure from traditional legal practice, as supporting a president's policy agenda is not typically considered valid grounds for dropping criminal charges. The judge is set to hear arguments on this unusual request, highlighting the intersection of politics and justice in this high-profile federal corruption case.
