Fed-up judge loses patience with Trump DOJ and throws out prosecutor
Federal Judge Zahid N. Quraishi expelled top prosecutor Mark Coyne from his New Jersey courtroom on Monday during a child pornography sentencing hearing, demanding clarification about who controls the U.S. attorney's office.
The judge confronted junior prosecutor Daniel Rosenblum with pointed questions about whether former interim U.S. attorney Alina Habba maintains hidden operational control.
