Ep 188 — Habba Quits Job After Getting Fired In July

Date listened

Notes

Summary <p>Alina Habba has finally tapped out. No more cosplaying as US Attorney for New Jersey for her! Attorney General Pam Bondi promptly declared victory and vowed to appeal. But strangely that vow was not followed by any federal filings. Subscribers will get a deep dive into the Supreme Court’s wild hearing in <em>Trump v. Slaughter</em>, as they gleefully contemplated a world where the president staffs his entire administration with hacks.</p><p><br></p><p>Links:</p><p><br></p><p>Halligan Continues as U.S. Attorney, Prompting Criticism From Judges</p><p><a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/05/us/politics/halligan-us-attorney-judiciary.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.nytimes.com/2025/12/05/us/politics/halligan-us-attorney-judiciary.html</a></p><p><br></p><p>Oral Argument, Supreme Court, <em>Trump v.
