This is not getting enough attention: The Trump administration's direct intervention and demand for the prosecution against NYC Mayor Eric Adams to be dropped is one of their most authoritarian acts ever. dOj wEaPoNiZaTiOn?

Trump's objective is to augment the political powers of the presidency and to expand boundaries... he is most comfortable when surrounded by folks of questionable behaviors, and/or folks under investigation, or have been charged with crimes or convicted of crimes and wealthy oligarchs... this is our executive branch of federal government... -DW

Do you support Trump's executive order designating drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations?

nothing screams “law and order” like meddling in prosecutions to protect political allies. But sure, tell me more about defending democracy.

Blatant abuse of power authoritarian interference in the justice system. This should be a bigger story.

One wonders what transactional communication did take place. We know what Adam is getting, what is Trump getting?

Trump thinks he’s a king even a God—on his fake money it doesn’t say in God we trust. It says in Trump we trust. He’s so delusional he thinks there’s no consequence because there hasn’t been any He’s gotten away with every crime ever committed. He’s never been held accountable

Do you think this direct intervention sets a dangerous precedent for future administrations to interfere with local governance decisions?

Adam's charges were dismissed without prejudice, meaning that the charges can be reintroduced and Trump WILL have the charges brought again if Adams doesn't enforce Trump's immigration rules in NY. —> It's blackmail!! It's extortion!! —> Quid pro quo!

@donwinslow America looks like a cross between Italy and Russia: gangersterism + election fraud + land grab = illegal coup.

Would this not be yet another example of quid pro quo which is exactly what got Trump impeached the first time ?

@MadameJustice_ yes.. for everything they accuse the DEMS of doing.. rotten tangerine nuts, his pocketdemon Elon, the mangomagooGOPzombiecultclowns.. do consecutively.. and without regard to Law or the Constitution.. it's outrageous and would not have stood for more than 2sec if it was Folks..
