The changing of the Guard. Trump's DOJ

Based on the information I found, there have been several notable resignations within the Department of Justice (DOJ) recently, largely stemming from a controversy surrounding the case of New York City Mayor Eric Adams. Here's a breakdown:

Danielle Sassoon: 
The acting U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, Danielle Sassoon, resigned after being directed to drop corruption charges against Mayor Eric Adams.

DOJ Public Integrity Division:
Following the controversy, several high-ranking officials within the DOJ's public integrity section also resigned. This includes: 
The acting chief of the division.
Three deputy chiefs.
A deputy assistant attorney general in the criminal division who oversaw the section.

Kevin Driscoll and John Keller:
The acting heads of the Justice Department’s criminal and public integrity divisions, Kevin Driscoll and his deputy, John Keller, also recently resigned. 

Denise Cheung:
A top supervisor in the federal prosecutors' office in Washington, Denise Cheung, resigned following a dispute with her boss over a directive to scrutinize a government contract.

Key takeaways:
These resignations highlight a significant internal conflict within the DOJ regarding the handling of the Eric Adams case. 
The departures indicate a strong disagreement among DOJ officials regarding the decisions made by the department's leadership.
There are also reports of changes happening due to the change in presidential administrations.

It's important to keep in mind that these situations can evolve, and further developments may occur.
