Trump had nominated Habba, whom he tapped on an interim basis in March, for the full-time appointment. But Sens. Cory Booker and Andy Kim used blue slips — which empower home-state senators to block U.S. attorney and District Court judge nominees — to keep her from advancing in the chamber.

Acting New Jersey U.S. Attorney Alina Habba blamed Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) on Thursday for some of her struggles to keep her job due to his refusal to end a bipartisan tradition on judicial nominees.

Trump whacked Grassley again on Sunday, hours after Alina Habba ripped him in a Fox News interview, for defending the "blue slip" tradition blocking Habba. The post ‘Go To HELL!’ Trump Rages at Grassley Over ‘BLUE SLIP’ Rule Blocking Alina Habba From NJ Prosecutor Job first appeared on Mediaite.
