‘It is apparent that the current administration has been frustrated by some of the legal and political barriers to getting its appointees in place’

Alina Habba, a MAGA warrior for President Donald Trump, was disqualified Monday from serving as U.S. attorney for the District of New Jersey.
The decision came from the Third Circuit Court of Appeals, as the three-judge panel concurred with the defendants who claimed her appointment was unlawful.
“Habba is not the Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey by virtue of her appointment as First Assistant U.S. Attorney because only the first assistant in place at the time the vacancy arises automatically assumes the functions and duties of the office under the FVRA,” the court stated.
