Alina Habba, President Donald Trump 's former personal defense lawyer, declared on Thursday that she has resumed her post as the acting U.S. attorney for the district of New Jersey.

President Donald Trump selected Alina Habba to continue running the US Attorney’s Office in New Jersey on a temporary basis, seemingly ending a succession drama after federal judges had picked her top assistant to take her place.

New Jersey's U.S. District Court judges opted to appoint someone else to the role, but Alina Habba posted on social media the job is still hers.
