"SHE WILL FIGHT tirelessly FOR A FAIR AND JUST LEGAL SYSTEM"



Trump, noting that Habba is currently serving as a presidential advisor at the White House, stated, "I am very pleased to announce that Attorney Alina Habba will serve as the temporary Attorney General of New Jersey, her birthplace, effective immediately." Trump mentioned that Habba will work tirelessly to provide the people of New Jersey with "both a fair and just" legal system.



HABBA CRITICIZED NEW JERSEY'S DEMOCRATIC LEADERS FOR "FAILURE"



After the announcement, Habba spoke to the media at the White House, claiming that New Jersey's Democratic Governor Phil Murphy and Democratic Senator Cory Booker have "failed the state," asserting that she would stop "corruption" and "injustice" in the state under her leadership.

SHE HAD DEFENDED TRUMP IN FRAUD AND SEXUAL HARASSMENT CASES



New Jersey-born attorney Alina Habba had defended Trump in a case filed in New York regarding allegations that he "defrauded numerous individuals and entities in the real estate sector for years," which resulted in a $454 million penalty before he became president.



Habba was also among the lawyers defending Trump in the case where 81-year-old magazine writer E. Jean Carroll accused him of raping her in a fitting room at Bergdorf Goodman in New York in the spring of 1996, and he was ordered to pay a total of $88.3 million in damages.
