Former Manhattan US Attorney Damian Williams rushed to charge Big Apple Mayor Eric Adams – then grandstanded about the corruption case to further his own career, a top Justice Department official claimed Thursday.

The stunning development comes amid widespread speculation as to whether she would follow through on the directive and after Trump placed her in the top job role in an acting capacity.

The U.S. attorney for Manhattan has resigned after she refused to succumb to pressure from the Justice Department to drop corruption charges against New York City’s mayor.
