No Habba job. Sad!
Breaking News: A federal court said that Alina Habba, a Trump-appointed lawyer, had been serving unlawfully as the U.S. attorney in New Jersey. She was neither confirmed by the Senate nor appointed by district trial court judges — the two traditional pathways.
Appeals Court Says Alina Habba, Former Trump Lawyer, Is Serving Unlawfully as U.S. Attorney

Martin Sellner, the Austrian neo-Nazi who popularized the term "remigration," showed off a screenshot to my colleagues of a Trump social media post, using the word. He said that Trump’s borrowing of the term was a “vindication” of his own political project.

Column | Trump’s embrace of ‘remigration’ echoes Europe’s far right
The term “remigration” probably entered President Donald Trump’s orbit via the politics of ascendant far-right parties in Germany and Austria.

Well, they can quite easily be both.
Here are US military lawyers stating clearly that Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth's "kill everybody" orders are either (1) war crimes or (2) murder.
Either way, expect prosecutions in the future.
