Alina Habba to remain N.J. prosecutor: "I don't cower to pressure"
Briefly

Habba announced her role as Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey following her appointment by Trump. She emphasized her commitment to justice, stating she does not yield to pressure or politics. Recent developments included a federal judges' appointment of a new interim attorney, which led to criticism directed at the judges by Bondi. A Department of Justice source clarified the legal framework regarding Habba's tenure, indicating she can serve for an extended period under congressional rule despite her withdrawn nomination.
"I don't cower to pressure. I don't answer to politics. This is a fight for justice. And I'm all in," she added.
"Withdrawing the nomination doesn't change the fact that it was submitted," he said, citing U.S. Code.
