The Trump administration quickly acted to remove Habba’s replacement following a decision not to extend her term.

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

Trump appointed her as interim attorney, but to stay full-time, Habba would need to be approved by district judges or have the Senate confirm her position. On Tuesday, New Jersey’s federal judges instead chose to replace Habba with longtime prosecutor Desiree Leigh Grace, who served as Habba’s assistant.

New Jersey's U.S. District Court judges opted to appoint someone else to the role, but Alina Habba posted on social media the job is still hers.

Alina Habba’s term as interim U.S. attorney was set to expire this week. Federal judges announced a replacement, but Attorney General Pam Bondi quickly intervened.

President Donald Trump nominated Alina Habba, his former campaign spokeswoman and personal lawyer, to be New Jersey’s permanent U.S. attorney.

Habba’s disastrous tenure as a federal prosecutor appeared to be over — until Donald Trump and Pam Bondi came up with a scheme to keep her in place.
