At least seven federal prosecutors have now resigned — in just the last 48 hours — rather than accept the order to dismiss corruption charges against New York Mayor Eric Adams.

I wonder if TurboTax will have a "Doge mode" to activate and make things very favorable.

Strong rumor with credible sourcing: DOJ has put all of public integrity line attorneys in a room and told them they have an hour for someone to choose who will sign motion to dismiss and if nobody does, they will all be fired. The nastiest strong-arming in DOJ history by a long shot.

This is a flat-out, clear-cut violation of the First Amendment.

Happy Championship Series Opening Day to all who observe
