WASHINGTON — President Trump’s pick for New Jersey’s US attorney has nabbed endorsements from top law enforcement leaders nationwide — but still faces roadblocks from the Garden State’s Democratic senators for final confirmation as her interim status is set to expire in less than two weeks. Alina Habba, a New Jersey native who has been serving as its top prosecutor, has garnered the enthusiastic support of the National Troopers Coalition, National Association of Police Organizations and National Police Defense Foundation since being nominated in March. “I can think of no one better suited than USA Habba as her passion to help people and her work ethic has rarely been seen by anyone I have encountered in the US Attorney position,” raved Special Agent Ricky Patel, the head of Homeland Security Investigations in Newark, in a June 27 endorsement letter.
