Mass DOJ Resignations Protest Political Interference

A mass resignation of high-ranking officials within the Department of Justice (DOJ) has unfolded over a case against New York City Mayor Adams. Multiple prosecutors, including acting US attorneys and section heads, resigned rather than drop charges against Adams. This is seen as a strong protest against political interference in judicial independence; an insider called it "coercion, not capitulation." The incident sparks debate about political pressure versus legal independence and highlights the complexities of the US political landscape.
