‘Unlawful appointment’: Judge rules Trump’s Ex-Lawyer Alina Habba illegally served as US Attorney

An explosive federal court ruling has thrown the Justice Department into turmoil. Judge Matthew Brann declared that Alina Habba, once President Trump’s lawyer, was unlawfully serving as acting US attorney for New Jersey after her interim term expired in July. He disqualified her from ongoing cases and warned actions since July 1 may be void. The DOJ plans to appeal, as the case raises major questions over executive power and bypassing Senate confirmation.
