🤦🏻♀️ #Habba: We have witnesses in this courtroom that have made a point of going out, being on TV, making money but we are not allowed to. President #Trump is somehow not allowed to.
Acyn:
(The gag order does prevent Trump from being on TV or making money)
And she got reprimanded by Security in the court room today for sending a note to Necheles when she's not on the legal team.
Via Acyn:
#Habba: Look, the end of the day is we haven’t heard one thing… The one thing we’re not hearing up there is very simple, what did President #Trump do wrong… I am yet to hear that
It's where the crime took place. Bragg is the Manhattan DA. And Alina #Habba is a very stable genius.
Habba: We’re seeing a painful selection because we’re in the state of New York which is definitely by design. There is no question that Bragg bringing this in New York… these venues are selected exactly for this reason
Per Rupar, as news is breaking about his huge fine, Trump is ranting on Lies Antisocial about pics of him w/ his stomach hanging out over his belt while he's golfing as fakes, posting other pics side by side.
And...
Here's what Adam Parkhomenko

Habba Statement: If this decision stands, it will serve as a signal to every single American that New York is no longer open for business.
@GottaLaff Despite #Habba statement, I think this means NY is no longer open to fraud on the scale that #Trump has perpetrated. TY Laffy for all you do. This is a very big win!
Donald #Trump fired off a late night post in which he said he is "interviewing various law firms" to represent him in his appeal of the #EJeanCarroll verdict, leaving many to wonder if Alina #Habba's time on the case is over. #legal
#EJeanCarroll's lead attorney threatened SANCTIONS against Trump lawyer Alina #Habba over her "utterly baseless" claim that a federal judge had an undisclosed conflict of interest. #legal#Trump
Habba's conflict claim is based entirely on a single-anon source story in NY Post.
Carroll's lawyer ques how the tabloid came to publish it & if the supposed partner at Paul Weiss — the firm where she and the judge both worked— "even exists."
Trump stands up and walks out during Roberta Kaplan's closing. “The record will reflect that Mr. Trump just rose & walked out of the courtroom,” #JudgeKaplan says. This is an unusual breach of decorum, & Roberta Kaplan continues as though nothing unusual happened.
#JudgeKaplan just lost his temper w/ #Habba as she tried to object, reminding the #Trump team that only one lawyer can object during an argument. “One lawyer,” he scolds them, & Habba sits down.
Judge Kaplan interrupts Crowley as she begins to launch into a key point — that Trump assaulted #EJeanCarroll — to scold the Trump lawyers for walking around during the proceedings. Trump is at the defense table talking to Habba as Crowley says he does “whatever he wants.”
After posting this picture Dylan4America ["UNHLaw
Alum'] was asked to leave and never comeback.
This picture was taken after Alina #Habba asked the judge for a delay in the trial because she was ill and her parents may have tested positive for COVID.
In a post on social media last night, Trump went after #JudgeKaplan:
“The Federal Judge in this Second Biden Political Opponent ‘Trial’ is extraordinarily hostile to me — Sadly, & I don’t know why, a 100% Trump Hater. He knows I did nothing wrong, but is looking to do a number on me. Only in America!”
#JudgeKaplan asked for a #proffer of #Trump's #testimony, #AlinaHabba responded: "He's going to say he stands by his deposition. He's going to say that he stands by those statements there."
She said he'd also claim that he didn't mean to harm her.
Asked if Trump would go beyond that, #Habba said: "I'm not testifying for my client, your honor."
#EJeanCarroll atty Roberta Kaplan said Trump had an opportunity to participate in the first trial, but he didn't appear.
"Trump's lawyer was repeatedly bench-slapped for ignoring basic courtroom rules and legal procedure. Legal experts say that in any other case, Habba's antics would be grounds for a malpractice suit. But Trump is unlikely to sue her — likey because Habba is doing exactly what he wants."
"Alina Habba, one of former President Donald Trump’s lawyers, says in an interview with Fox News that United States Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh will “step up” for the man who appointed him to the high court."
#Habba asked if #Trump hired her because she’s hot:
“I don’t think I’d be on TV or sitting here if I didn’t look the way I look. I think I caught attention. I’m very honest about that and I don’t mind. I’m not a feminist … Someone asked me, 'Would you rather be smart or pretty?' ...Easy! Pretty! I can fake being smart!...You have to honest, it doesn’t hurt to be good looking.”
A former server at #Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster alleges she was sexually harassed and coerced into sex by a supervisor, then tricked into signing an illegal non-disclosure agreement by Trump's lawyer, Alina #Habba
Trouble for Trump's attorney, #Habba being sued by a Trump golf course employee. Per the suit, after the employee alleged she was forced to have sex with her supervisor, in 2021 Habba "befriended" her and induced her to fire her counsel, and to sign an NDA drafted by Habba.
Problems:
Habba communicating with a represented party.
In 2019, NJ banned NDAs for workplace sexual harassment.

NEW: There are rumblings that the private conversations we’ve observed between each side and the court reflect some sort of settlement negotiation.
[Meetings are with Habba]
My response:
👉 Maybe the judge is meeting with #Habba to tell her not to violate his gag order about targeting his clerk? Or her filing for a mistrial that she mentioned on Bartiromo's show.
BTW, Note how #Bartiromo used the interview to BRING UP the clerk & her alleged donations. @GottaLaff
#Habba on #Bartiromo show on gag order on targeting Judge's clerk. Her filing for a mistrial that she mentioned on Bartiromo's show.
Kudos to specific, informed questions rather than just running #Habba's rant.
Vaughn Hillyard:
I asked her if they are concerned about the judge’s assertion that he draws a “negative inference” from Trump’s long, quasi-tangential answers, Habba said Trump needs to be able to make his case and tell his story about the company.
Alina #Habba’s antics make her a candidate for Bar Assoc. disciplinary action: #attorney
Donald #Trump#lawyer Alina Habba's "flagrant disregard" for courtroom rules could pave the way for #Judge Lewis #Kaplan to refer her to the State #Bar for a hearing and #investigation.
"CRAZY": Trump DUMPS Alina Habba as he looks for new defamation lawyers (washingtonpress.com)
Donald Trump does not like to lose, as his announcement that he is seeing(sic) new attorneys to appeal the $83 million defamation judgment proves.
