Not that I didn't consider you a testosterone deficient man already... you considering Alina "semi attractive" certainly provides affirmation.

Hot physique and barely average face. This is why bedrooms have light switches.

Roger prefers a husky woman who can keep him warm when in Alaska or when fishing for drugs.

Haven't they tried? Blue slips or something? The Senate Judiciary Cmte wouldn't vote on her to send it to the full Senate.

Her nomination ( along with tons of other nominations ) was pending. She was named the interim after a vacancy by the then USAtty. The clock ran out on her interim appointment and the statute doesn’t allow reappointment if a nomination is pending Senate confirmation. The admin pulled the nomination so that portion of the statute wouldn’t disqualify her from reappointment

The district court judges voted to nominate a different successor. Trump fired the new successor and appointed Habba again but as a new appointment rather than as a reappointment. Some criminal defendants sued saying their indictment was unlawful bc Habba appointment was unlawful. The district court judges court ruled in favor of the criminal defendants. Habba appealed and the Third Circuit court of appeals affirmed the lower court decision.

She has now resigned. She may end up doing most of the same work but unless the USSC overturns the Third Circuit decision, she can’t act as the USAtty in an official capacity. Trump could nominate her again to let it go through the Senate

Should have been disciplined or disbarred in New Jersey for what she did in the sexual harassment case against Bedminster CC. Trump should sue her for legal malpractice for botching the defense in E. Jean Carroll’s case in New York.

What a fricking joke of a legal system.

She is not dumb but woefully unqualified for the jobs he keeps hiring her for; she did graduate from a low 3rd tier law school...

Overhiring subordinates to gain loyalty is not unusual or unique to Trump; he just hires much farther down than most people ever would. Hiring people who have never handled a real criminal case to these sorts of roles is assinine. Habba and Halligan were/are well outside their professional capabilities.

Rules…
