Investigate Corruption in Trump’s Department of Justice

Donald Trump’s Department of Justice just dropped a high-profile corruption case against NYC Mayor Eric Adams—a move so blatantly corrupt that seven federal prosecutors resigned in protest. This is a textbook case of political favoritism and abuse of power, and the Senate Judiciary Committee must immediately investigate.

The DOJ had been investigating Adams over an alleged illegal fundraising scheme tied to foreign influence. But after Adams publicly defended Trump, the case was suddenly dropped. The timing is impossible to ignore. Trump isn’t letting Adams off the hook because he believes in his innocence—he’s doing it to secure Adams’ cooperation with his cruel anti-immigrant deportation agenda.

Trump has made it clear that he wants to deport millions of immigrants, and his administration needs cooperation from major cities like New York to make that happen. By dangling DOJ leniency over Adams, Trump is attempting to force him into compliance.

The Senate Judiciary Committee has the power and responsibility to conduct oversight of the DOJ. When seven prosecutors resign rather than carry out an order from Trump’s Justice Department, it’s a clear sign of deep corruption. If Trump can use the DOJ to shield allies and weaponize the legal system to push his policies, then the department is no longer serving justice—it’s serving Trump.

This is corruption in broad daylight, and it cannot be ignored. The Senate Judiciary Committee should have already launched an investigation, but the American people must demand action.

Sign this petition to tell the Senate Judiciary Committee: Investigate Trump’s DOJ now. We cannot allow the Justice Department to be used as a tool for political payoffs, corruption, and the mass deportation of immigrants.
