One federal prosecutor has agreed to sign a motion to dismiss the corruption charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams, following pressure from Trump’s officials.

MSNBC’s Ari Melber reports on the slew of prosecutors who have also resigned from the Department of Justice over this pressure, as well as one resigned prosecutor’s claim that the government should not be allowed to “use the carrot of dismissing charges, or the stick” for their political agenda. - Aired on 02/14/2025.

[Deuxcents]

1. His second term is now and will be like his first..chaos, corruption, unconstitutional policies, unprecedented

Uncertainty, economic downturns, unemployment, grifting, instability here and globally. I’m sure I left some issues out but this is just at first thought.

2. Exactly! Except now, there is no one who's experienced in government and knows the law to stop him.

3. I think some people know..it's the lack of will or it's gonna take more than one person risking it all.

4. I've listened to Liz Cheney's book and she goes into detail of the horror they experienced on January 6th

And the decision to impeach TFG. She said that too many Republicans were afraid to vote "yes" because of both the threats to themselves and their families and they knew they'd be primaried. She said that if it had been an anonymous vote, the yes votes would have been overwhelming. And of the 10 Republican House members who voted for impeachment, only 2 of them were reelected to the next Congress.

5. Woulda, coulda, should have but here we are. Round Two.
