The DOJ says “rogue judges” just can’t stand the “outstanding work” of Trump’s former attorney as New Jersey’s top federal prosecutor.

Desiree Lee Grace was appointed by New Jersey district court judges to replace Trump’s former personal attorney, Alina Habba, who reportedly lacks the votes to be formally confirmed by the Senate as the U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey.

Mere hours after federal judges named Alina Habba's replacement as New Jersey's top federal prosecutor on Tuesday, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that she was firing the pick.

President Trump nominated Habba, but opposition from New Jersey’s Democratic senators stalled her confirmation.

Desiree Leigh Grace, who was promoted by Habba, will now serve as the US attorney for the District of New Jersey, according to an order from a federal judge.

Habba signaled that she does not plan to leave her role as the temporary U.S. attorney of New Jersey, announcing she does "not cower" to pressure.

The Trump administration believes it has found a workaround to keep the president’s former personal lawyer Alina Habba as New Jersey’s U.S. Attorney and outflank federal judges who sought to replace her.

Alina Habba, President Trump’s pick to serve as New Jersey US attorney, will continue to serve as the Garden State’s top prosecutor despite a panel of judges rejecting her for the post.

President Donald Trump’s attempts to keep his personal attorney Alina Habba as New Jersey’s top federal prosecutor have sparked yet another showdown between his administration and a judiciary he despises.

Federal judges took a vote and decided not to extend Alina Habba's time as a U.S. attorney in N.J., and the court appears to be well within its legal authority to do so. The post A court had the legal authority to boot Alina Habba from top prosecutor role,

The attorney general acted just hours after New Jersey judges appointed Habba’s replacement as interim U.S. attorney.
