BREAKING: Trump is furious that his former lawyer Alina Habba Mildon landed a $50 million+ contract from the family of a Venezuelan billionaire he later pardoned, per The New York Times. While advising the Justice Department, Habba Mildon signed a four-year, $10 million-a-year deal to serve as general counsel for a company founded by the daughter of Julio Herrera Velutini. Herrera was seeking a pardon at the time, after a lenient plea deal had reduced felony bribery charges to a misdemeanor, and his daughter had given $3.5 million to a Trump-aligned super PAC. Habba Mildon started on Jan. 1. Weeks later, Trump granted Herrera a full pardon. Trump’s response: he’s told aides she should donate part of the money to his presidential library, and told an ally the family shouldn’t pay out the rest of the contract.
