Alina Habba Resigns as New Jersey U.S. Attorney Following Court Ruling

Alina Habba, a former personal lawyer for Donald Trump and the acting U.S. attorney for New Jersey, has resigned from her position after a federal appeals court ruled that her appointment was unlawful. The court upheld a decision to disqualify Habba, highlighting that her role as a prosecutor was not legally valid. This ruling is seen as another setback for Trump as he continues to face challenges related to his judicial appointments. Following her resignation, Habba will take on a new role as an advisor to Bondi.
