In response to Democrat House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries’ recent call for federal district judges to dismiss U.S. Attorney Alina Habba hours after she announced charges against Democrat Rep. LaMonica McIver (N.J.) for assaulting an officer at a New Jersey ICE detention center earlier this month, Republican legal activists are now filing a complaint in her defense.

Attorney Mike Davis, former Chief Counsel for Nominations to Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, blasted Jeffries for “corruptly strong-arming” the 17 New Jersey U.S. district judges, a majority of whom are Democrat appointees.

Read an ethics complaint against Jeffries filed by Davis and “The Article III Project” below:

The complaint calls on the House Ethics Committee to hold Jeffries “accountable,” stating, “A House member – particularly the House Democratic leader – who disagrees with the merits of a pending criminal case abuses his official position when he attempts to strong-arm federal judges to corruptly prejudice the ongoing criminal proceeding by firing the U.S. attorney for the purely political reason of protecting a partisan House colleague.”

Davis elaborated on his complaint during an appearance on Bannon’s War Room Monday, saying, “This is purely political from Hakeem Jeffries,” and accusing him of attempting to get the judges “to violate their judicial ethics.”

See Davis’ full interview with Bannon below:

Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights at the U.S. Department of Justice questioned Jeffries’ motivation for trying to get the judges to dismiss Habba.

Longtime President Trump insider and political commentator Roger Stone pointed out, “U.S. Attorneys are not selected by federal judges; they are appointed by the President subject to the approval (blue slip) of the two U.S. Senators. Efforts to politicize this process are outrageous. Interim U.S. Attorney Alina Habba has the full authority to prosecute a member of Congress for violent crimes.”

The federal judges are meeting Monday to consider whether Habba will be reappointed or if a new acting U.S. Attorney for the state will be needed.
