The Justice Department has requested a judge to dismiss the corruption case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams, following a chaotic week that involved high-level resignations at the DOJ. The acting Deputy Attorney General ordered the Manhattan federal prosecutor to drop the case, which has been described as politically motivated, as it could potentially interfere with the upcoming 2025 mayoral election. Adams, who has pleaded not guilty to charges of accepting illegal donations and taking travel upgrades for political favors, believes he has been unfairly targeted due to his criticisms of President Biden.
