#EricAdams, a *Democrat*, is resisting growing calls to resign. Gov #KathyHochul is also under increasing pressure to remove him from office.

The 4 ofcls who are expected to resign are all respected govt veterans. Ms. Torres-Springer was elevated to the 2nd most powerful job at City Hall in Oct in an effort to stabilize city govt & restore confidence in his admin following the mayor’s federal #indictment in Sept on 5 #corruption counts.

Re #Trump’s claims that #JackieSmith’s filing is in violation of the #DOJ’s 60 day before an election policy is BS. The DOJ's "60-day rule" applies to bringing NEW indictments in the days leading up to an #election, it is not relevant to the #ElectionInterference / #ElectionSubversion / #Jan6 / #FakeElectors #criminal #conspiracy case.

This is NOT a new #indictment. It is a #filing in regard to a VERY OLD indictment. Trump was first indicted in this case in Aug 2023.

#JackSmith’s Big New #Jan6 Brief Is a Major #Indictment of #SCOTUS

It’s rare to simultaneously feel red-hot anger & wistfulness, especially when merely reading a document. But those are exactly the emotions that washed over me when I read the redacted version of #SpecialCounsel #JackSmith’s brief reciting in detail the #evidence against #Trump for attempting to subvert the #2020election.

"Finally, Section IV explains the relief sought by the #Government and specifies the findings the #Court should make in a single order—namely, that the defendant’s conduct set forth in Section I is not immunized, and that as a result, the defendant must stand #trial on the superseding #indictment and the Government is not prohibited at trial from using evidence of the conduct described in Section I."

Kathy Hochul, the only person with the power to oust Eric Adams as Mayor, is "very concerned" about the indictment -- much like Susan Collins has always been "very concerned."

She's not going to bounce him, folks. At least not until there's a seismic shift in Eric Adams's approval rating. Which there will be.

The details included in the #SeanCombs #Racketeering #SexTrafficking #SexualAbuse #indictment are pretty horrific. Clearly prosecutors have an enormous amount of evidence including video.

A few details that stick out:

He kept sex workers drugged & artificially hydrated to keep them against their will & to continue in the abuse.

He used firearms to threaten them.

He video recorded to blackmail them into silence.

Multiple people in his employment were complicit or actively participated.

he group, dubbed "The TerrorGram Collective" used the social media site #Telegram to celebrate #WhiteSupremacist attacks around the world & solicit racially motivated #violence, acc/to an #indictment unsealed in federal court in #Sacramento, #California.

The group's targets also included U.S. #government officials & critical #infrastructure sites, w/an overall goal of causing societal collapse in the #UnitedStates, U.S. #Justice Department officials told an online news conference.

“The Justice Dept said #Russia may be involved in our elections again,” #Trump told the crowd at his rally. “And, you know, the whole world laughed at them this time.”

Trump’s comments appeared to reference #DOJ’s #indictment Wed of 2 Russia-based employees of Russia’s state-run news site, #RT, in an alleged scheme in which they paid an American media company to spread English-language videos on YouTube,TikTok,Instagram & X.

Lawyers for #Trump & the #DOJ are set to appear in a federal courtroom today for what could be the last hearing in his #ElectionInterference case before the November #election. This year, voters will decide the winner of the presidency — &, by extension, Trump’s legal fate. A DC #GrandJury #indictment accused Trump of actions resulting in the violent #insurrection at the US Capitol on #Jan6, 2021. If he reclaims the WH, he’s expected to direct his Justice Dept leaders to drop the case.

Opinion | #Trump’s latest #admission on #FoxNews is great news for Jack #Smith

Just days after special #counsel Jack Smith obtained a superseding #indictment against former President Donald Trump for attempting to #overturn the 2020 #election the former #president claimed in a Fox News #Interview that he had “every right” to do so. The question now is: can that public #statement be used against him at #trial The answer is yes.
