Summary
Speaking just as Fox News was reporting that Attorney General Pam Bondi was relieved of her duties by Donald Trump, MS NOW’s Laura Barrón-López listed off possible long-term candidates for the job which included former Trump lawyer Alina Habba.Speaking with host Chris Jansing, the White House correspondent reported, “I know that Fox News is reporting that this decision has come down, but our sources have told us that it was going to be, you know, potentially as early as today, but that she is out.““A lot of that frustration from the president has been building for some time now for months and it has more to do with her prosecutions or her inability to get cases fully through that have to do with prosecuting the president's enemies,” she elaborated. “Now, of course, there was also the handling of the [Jeffrey] Epstein files that have frustrated a number of the president's allies. But again, this is something that sources had told us who are familiar with the conversations is happening imminently.”“Now when it comes to who could replace her, there are a number of people that are on that potential shortlist, and we're not sure exactly who the president's final choice is, but that could include Lee Zeldin, the EPA Administrator. It could also include Jeanine Pirro, the current U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia.”“We also heard that Alina Habba was potentially in the mix –– she was the former U.S. attorney for New Jersey, who was disqualified by a judge. There was also some talk around Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO) –– that was what sources told Jake Traylor.” - YouTube youtu.be
