Acting US Attorney for the SDNY Danielle Sassoon abruptly resigned on Thursday, just a few days after she was ordered to drop charges against NYC Mayor Eric Adams.

....Snip....

NBC News reported:

Danielle R. Sassoon, the acting U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York who was ordered to drop the corruption charges against New York City mayor Eric Adams, has resigned, a senior official said Thursday.

The move appears to be a rebuke to the Justice Department. It comes three days after Emil Bove, the acting U.S. deputy attorney general, issued a memo ordering federal prosecutors in New York to drop the case against Adams in part because it hampered his ability to tackle “illegal immigration and violent crime.”

Sassoon announced her resignation in a brief statement to colleagues that does not refer to the directive from the Justice Department, the senior official said

The SD NY is where international money comes and goes from the U.S., and where any SEC fraud occurs. It’s also where Trump Tower is and the Trump organization. The RINOs made sure Trump couldn’t get his choice for US Attorney confirmed there in his first term, and Bushie Barr did his part to run interference as well. Finally, Deep State crimes in the SD NY will be prosecuted.

Have you actually looked at anything that was turned up, or just reflexively running your head?

Adams is dirty AF.

Her quitting is a rebuke to the Justice department?

EVERY democrat is dirty as far as I am concerned. But the weaponized SDNY prosecutors went after mayor Adams soon after he began cooperating with border czar appointed by Trump. Democrats play dirty all the time. Country club republicans such as the Bushes are too timid.

She needs to go home and play with her Little Pony. She was in over Georgey Soros’ head.

This is the detailed letter in which she was fired. Her “resignation” was imputed in her blunt refusal to follow orders to drop the charges and her statement that if Trump wants to stop the case, he should pardon Adams.

They all write letters of resignation when hired that can be “accepted” at any time.

NBC ‘sensed’ what is all about. They don’t need no stinkin’ facts. They are mindreaders.

The interesting thing is how all the media picked up on this bogus story and ‘reverberated it’.

Keep posting that, but it’s behind a pay wall. And I’m not sullying my debit card with a subscription to that fetid fishwrap.

Every president does not fire all the us attorneys when they come into office. Generally the democrat presidents fire all or most of them. Republicans have usually only fired a small handful.

I am really really really hoping that somewhere out there is good hearted human, who worked his way high up into the stinkier ranks of the swamp, and who remembers the America we grew up in, and is willing to come forward and “flip” to our side and publicly dump lots of dirt and evidence on a lot of bad people.....

The swamp is being exposed and fumigated and once they start cracking, some dirt-keeper will know the game is up and the truth needs to be told.

Not sure why Trump would let Adams off the hook - he’s a POS, and the charges looked legit.

Because Adams has got dirt on Letitia James and Alvin Bragg.
