I am not american and have only a brief understanding of their procedures and stuff. I heard somewhere that this situation is similar to what lead to nixons resignition. I am just very confused to what the accusations, plans, intrigues ect. are.

In one word: corruption. The mayor is corrupt and now that he’s playing nice with trump re rounding up migrants the prosecutors were told to drop the case (iirc it’s federal) and they resigned instead.
