Former Trump lawyer Alina Habba is removed from a $50 million contract that she had signed with a company connected to a Venezuelan banker’s family. Multiple outlets report that the contract is ended after President Trump publicly condemns the arrangement, calling it “outrageous” and describing it with similar negative language.
Outlets provide background on how the deal came together, including that Habba was hired weeks before Trump granted a pardon to the family’s patriarch. Some coverage also identifies the contracting entity as Concord Partners, described as a Florida-based firm tied to the banker’s family, while others add details about the termination reason and timing around Habba’s reported personal changes. Overall, the reporting focuses on the dispute between Trump and Habba, the scale of the contract, and the connection to the pardon that triggered Trump’s criticism.
Different outlets emphasize different aspects: some lead with Trump’s anger and the contract loss, while others stress the contract signing and the proximity to the pardon, and still others foreground the company’s stated basis for termination and related personal or employment context.
