Topics
Jim Sciutto: 特朗普政府和司法部检察官之间存在对抗,因为司法部官员下令撤销纽约市长的联邦刑事指控。萨松的信表明她是辞职而非被解雇,并声称亚当斯的律师寻求与司法部达成利益交换,以换取在移民问题上的合作。 Danielle Sassoon: 撤销对埃里克·亚当斯的腐败案不符合我公正起诉联邦犯罪的职责,我不能在有失公正的情况下履行我的职责。 President Trump: 我没有要求司法部撤销对埃里克·亚当斯的案件,那个美国检察官是被解雇的。我对此事一无所知。 Brad Todd: 司法部和总统认为对埃里克·亚当斯的指控是因其批评拜登的移民政策而起,美国检察官的离职是正常的。新总统上任后,美国检察官的离职是很正常的,他们是因为抗议而辞职的。 Jaime Moore: 我对埃里克·亚当斯向特朗普低头以求撤案并不感到惊讶,这可能是一种交换条件。如果他和特朗普是朋友,他就不会被起诉。我认为这是一种交换。 Alex Thompson: 拜登政府和亚当斯在移民问题上存在冲突,但此案可能与这些冲突无关。辞职的人是联邦主义者协会的成员,并非左翼激进分子。亚当斯一直在为这件事奔走,他会见了特朗普的边境官员,还上了塔克·卡尔森的播客。 Kathy Hochul: 我不能像其他人那样做出膝跳反应,而是要咨询政府中的其他领导人。我必须做正确的事情。 Jeffrey Toobin: 司法部对埃里克·亚当斯案件的处理是前所未有的,这种为了政治利益而撤销案件是对司法部的歪曲。没有证据表明此案是政治报复,亚当斯是因为被起诉而感到不安。
