President Donald Trump's attempt to ensure his pick remains in charge of the U.S. Attorney's Office in New Jersey has taken a new twist.
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.
The Trump administration believes a complex procedural maneuver will allow the president’s former personal lawyer to remain in the position.
