Lead US Attorney’s HAVE TO BE confirmed by the US Senate for the job….
Trump Attorney General Bondi KNOWS THAT….
Why she keeps testing Federal Judge’s is kinda stupid and disrespectful to the judges…
A federal judge has ejected the leaders of the U.S. attorney’s office in New Jersey, concluding that Attorney General Pam Bondi illegally appointed an unusual “triumvirate,” at President Donald Trump’s whim, to oversee the powerful federal prosecuting office.
“Why does the fate of thousands of criminal prosecutions in this District potentially rest on the legitimacy of an unprecedented and byzantine leadership structure?” U.S. District Judge Matthew Brann wrote. “The President doesn’t like that he cannot simply appoint whomever he wants.”
The sweeping, scolding 130-page decision repeatedly chides the administration for attempting to sidestep Senate confirmation and twist centuries-old precedents to work the president’s will.
“One year into this administration, it is plain that President Trump and his top aides have chafed at the limits on their power set forth by law and the Constitution,” Brann concluded.
The ruling by Brann, a conservative judge appointed by President Barack Obama, followed an earlier ruling that the Trump administration had illegally maneuvered to keep loyalist Alina Habba — Trump’s former personal lawyer — in place as a U.S. attorney after her interim appointment expired.
The ruling deepens the dysfunction in an office that oversees some of the most significant criminal and civil litigation in the country. Brann’s decision also further complicates the Justice Department’s wide-ranging effort to install top federal prosecutors while circumventing or overriding either the Senate-confirmation or judicial-appointment processes, an effort the Trump administration has attempted in various U.S. attorneys offices across the country….
Note…
The way things work in the US Senate is the two senator’s from the state involved HAVE TO signal their approval of the President’s Justice Dept, Choice….
The Jersey US Senator’s ARE Democrats….
Figure it out…..
