@msnbc: At least seven prosecutors, including the acting U.S. attorney in Manhattan, have stepped down over the Justice Department’s order in the Adams case. Hagan Scotten, the lead prosecutor on the corruption case against Adams, issued a scathing rebuke of the Justice Department's actions in his resignation letter. MSNBC legal correspondent, Lisa Rubin, explains.

Glad they are standing by their oath and standing their ground. No one should be above the law.

If Adam has an ounce of shame left, he would resign.

I’m confused. Is resigning a form of protest here? To who? Wouldn’t remaining in the case and seeing it through be the protest to the DOJ’s order?

Filing the motion would require lying to a judge which can cause them to be disbarred. That’s why they are quitting.

I get standing up for what you believe in but by resigning it just opens up a position for another loyalist to fill.
