YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The federal judge overseeing the corruption case against New York City Mayor Eric Adams held a hearing Wednesday about the Trump Justice Department's sudden decision to drop the case. That reversal prompted seven federal prosecutors to resign in protest and has further plunged the mayor’s administration into turmoil. William Brangham was in the courtroom and reports on the developments.
