Former Fox News host Judge Jeanine Pirro has a new job, and a familiar face may be replacing her on the top-rated cable news channel.
A White House source said that Alina Habba, the former attorney for President Donald Trump who is serving as U.S. Attorney for New Jersey, is being eyed to replace Pirro as a host on “The Five,” The Daily Mail reported.
The report said that Habba is considering taking the job and avoiding the confirmation process to become the US Attorney for New Jersey full-time.
“Discussions about a permanent replacement have not even started, so her name can’t be part of the mix,” A Fox News source said to The Daily Mail.
“Rotating Fox News personalities will fill the seat on The Five until a permanent co-host is named,” a Fox News spokesperson said.
Because of her legal background and tough personality, the White House source said that Habba may be the only person who could step into Pirro’s spot.
