I think all of this debate and dissent is healthy.

Tucker did a podcast on it. Adams was definitely being targeted for refusing to play ball with the Democrat's agenda.

Interested to see if and when the Senate gets involved here.

These aren’t Democrats rebuking Bondi’s decision. But newly arrived Republicans, Correct?

The Senate seems likely to be getting more frustrated, but they also seem to be uninterested in trying to assume any responsibility.

I don’t know about everyone.

Ok. I thought I heard that the resignation letter was from someone who just arrived 3 weeks ago.

I can't believe ANY attorney would follow the order to move to dismiss without prejudice.

Sassoon was appointed a few weeks ago. I just don’t know about the rest.

Agree with this. That's why I think the pardon (political) route, rather than the legal route should have been taken.
But that wouldn't have achieve the objective of holding a potential prosecution over the mayor of NY's head. You can't apply political pressure on someone with a full pardon in their pocket.

The U.S. Senate?

Ugh, Sassoon is a conservative who was appointed by Trump...

They’re impotent sycophants but in a normal, healthy system someone would look at this and say the person at the top (Bondi) and the person and the bottom (Sassoon) were each confirmed less than a month ago yet one is already resigning because the other is asking her to do something unethical. Wtf is going on at the DOJ?
But again, that’s in a healthy system. Ours is far from it.

Sassoon, 38, was appointed U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York on a temporary basis shortly after Trump began his second term on January 20. Trump's permanent pick to lead the office, Jay Clayton, is awaiting U.S. Senate confirmation.

Hagan's background for reference,
"Mr. Scotten served three combat tours in Iraq as a U.S. Army Special Forces Officer and earned two Bronze Stars. He graduated from Harvard Law School and clerked for Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. of the U.S. Supreme Court, and for Brett M. Kavanaugh before he, too, became an Supreme Court justice.
Mr. Scotten has led the investigation into Mr. Adams since it began in the summer of 2021. It resulted in an indictment that was announced in September by a previous U.S. attorney, Damian Williams, an appointee of President Joseph R. Biden Jr.
In a hearing in October, Mr. Scotten said in court that additional charges could be brought and additional defendants charged."
