Raskin: Trump's 'Attack' on the Department of Justice 'Could Be Impeachable'
Representative Jamie Raskin criticized the Trump administration for what he described as an "attack" on the Department of Justice (DOJ), stating that such actions could be impeachable. He highlighted the resignation of seven federal prosecutors who objected to the DOJ's decision to drop the investigation into New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who was facing corruption charges. Raskin accused the DOJ of attempting to leverage dropping the charges in exchange for political concessions, which he called a corrupt move. He noted that the Attorney General did not cite any changes in the case's facts, leading several high-ranking DOJ lawyers to resign in protest. Raskin emphasized that the judge overseeing the case does not have to accept the dismissal of charges, indicating the matter is unresolved. He criticized the administration for prioritizing corruption and lawlessness, reflecting a broader concern about the DOJ's leadership under Trump.
