BREAKING: MAGA attorney Alina Habba gets obliterated by The View's hosts for pushing Trump's lies: "You actually were sanctioned nearly a million dollars!"
This was absolutely beautiful to behold...
"Can I mention one thing? That Matt Gaetz also used that 86 many times and nothing happened to him," said Joy Behar, referring to the sham indictment that Trump's Justice Department has brought against James Comey for a benign message written in seashells.
"Well, I think we look at everything. I'll be honest with you," said Habba, the former acting U.S. attorney for New Jersey. "Absolutely everything is in context. I don't think anybody is immune to it. I don't think we should be sitting here and nobody has condemned Jimmy Kimmel for his comments. Those were despicable."
"Joy pointed out earlier the President also posted death to Democrats. Do you think the President should be held responsible for that?" asked Sunny Hostin.
"All— All due respect," stammered Habba, interrupted by the audience applauding for Hostin's question. "I haven't seen that post. I will tell you what I did—
"It does exist," said Hostin.
"Okay," said Habba. "What I can tell you is this— And who was the Attorney General and the DOJ at that point?"
"Probably Pam Bondi, no?" interjected Behar.
"Here's how I feel about this.... Here's directly how I feel about this. Nobody should be inciting violence. Period," said Habba.
"Including the President," shot back Hostin.
"But you have to remember something. The Department of Justice brings real cases. We are not Jack Smith. We are not Letitia James. We bring real cases against people," said Habba.
The audience groaned and laughed in equal measure at the shamelessness of her lie.
In reality, the Department of Justice has lost all credibility under Donald Trump. He has transformed it from the nation's most respected law enforcement agency into a weapon of cheap partisan rage.
"I actually had the pleasure of serving as a former federal prosecutor at the Department of Justice," said Hostin. "But let me ask you this. I do believe that this is a vindictive prosecution against Comey directed by the President. And so far with little success because he's done this many times..."
Then came the knockout punch—
"As Trump's personal attorney, you actually were sanctioned nearly a million dollars for filing a frivolous civil lawsuit against Comey, against Hillary Clinton and others, that a federal judge called political grievances masquerading as legal claims," added Hostin.
"So why should anyone believe this pattern of targeting Trump's enemies is about justice and not revenge?" she asked.
Predictably, Habba reached into the usual bag of MAGA talking points and pathetic misdirection.
"If you think that the Russian collusion hoax, if you think that the things that we've now seen evidence of in this Department of Justice aren't real, I'd just tell you to sit tight because things are coming," said Habba. "Because what they did was weaponize. I don't want to hear about weaponization because the reason you all know who I am is because of weaponization."
She rambled on a bit, whining about a "Hillary Clinton-appointed judge."
Hostin pounced to correct her.
"I just have to correct something," she said. "It was actually Bill Clinton that appointed that judge. But also a three-judge panel consisting of a Bush appointee, a Trump appointee and a Biden appointee actually agreed with that court's decision in a 36-page opinion."
This is how it's done folks. Cold hard facts pop MAGA misinformation every single time. Habba should have never gone on The View.
We guarantee that she'll think twice before accepting the next invite.
Please ❤️ and share to thank Hostin!
