The DOJ says “rogue judges” just can’t stand the “outstanding work” of Trump’s former attorney as New Jersey’s top federal prosecutor.

Desiree Lee Grace was appointed by New Jersey district court judges to replace Trump’s former personal attorney, Alina Habba, who reportedly lacks the votes to be formally confirmed by the Senate as the U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey.

Mere hours after federal judges named Alina Habba's replacement as New Jersey's top federal prosecutor on Tuesday, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that she was firing the pick.

Alina Habba, President Trump’s pick to serve as New Jersey US attorney, will continue to serve as the Garden State’s top prosecutor despite a panel of judges rejecting her for the post.

On Tuesday, New Jersey federal judges decided to fire Alina Habba, refusing to vote to extend her 120-day appointment as U.S. attorney for New Jersey, leading to uproar from the right. Now, the Trump administration seems to have found a loophole to keep one of their most loyal operatives back into a powerful position.

Habba signaled that she does not plan to leave her role as the temporary U.S. attorney of New Jersey, announcing she does "not cower" to pressure.

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