@fetterman.senate.gov it doesn’t make any sense that these departments are terminating 100,000 federal employees overnight for no reason. A foreign born, unelected person comes in to shred our government. The same person who has large contracts with the government? Isn’t that a conflict of interest?

What's extraordinary about this is unlike the Watergate era Saturday Night Massacre where the AG & Deputy AG resigned rather than fire the prosecutor investigating Nixon - these are career prosecutors - not political appointees - putting their careers on the line for what is right.
As a former DOJ attorney I am proud of these courageous prosecutors refusing to obey DOJ's corrupt order to dismiss the criminal case against NYC Mayor Eric Adams - we all should be proud of them.

Adams must be removed. The city cannot sustain being governed for nearly a year by a Mayor who is being coerced by Trump admin in order to escape charges.
This corruption poses a real threat to the people of the city. He should have resigned a while ago, but will not. So it’s time for him to go.
