Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

TL;DR
With prejudice, so the DOJ can’t use this as a stick to keep him in line.
So instead of blackmailing Adams on these charges, that DOJ will have to find different charges to threaten him with?
Somehow I don't think they'll have much trouble.
Your tldr immediately conflicts with your post...
trump wanted charges dropped, because Adams is kissing his ass.
Just because Adams has a D by his name, doesn't mean he's on the peoples side.
He's an obviously corrupt piece of shit who was likely just bought off by trump to protect his NYC interests
But you're acting like him getting off Scott free is a good thing
Trump wanted the case dismissed without prejudice. While Adams could very well end up still kissing Trumps ass, this makes it less likely as DOJ can’t resurrect the charges.
I never said him getting off Scott free is a good thing. I think he should face the charges.
Only if you think Adams is only doing all the stupid corrupt shit to make trump like him...
Sounds a lot more likely that he's just a corrupt piece of shit like virtually every other NYC mayor or former NYPD. Especially since he was doing stupid corrupt shit when Biden was president
Bolding something isn't the same as linking a source...
The without prejudice part is in the article:
As for why that could be bad:
If he cared about, he'd have made noise about it not happening how he wanted...
Or more likely, had the DOJ oppose it
You're stuck on "stick" being the only way one corrupt politician can I fluence another.
Adams would eat a carrot out of Trump's ass, he doesn't need a stick when the door is opened to more corruption.
For fucks sake, pay attention to more than a single letter
The TLDR isn't conflicting at all with what you quoted...
