Miguel Estrada

So he's clearly qualified for the position.

Knowing that the U.S. senators from California, Adam Schiff and Alex Padilla, would never sign off on Asseli's nomination, Trump instead had Bondi appoint Asseli to the U.S. attorney position that had been vacated by Biden's appointee, Miguel Estrada.

He could only serve in there for a limited time, so he resigned from that position before that time period expired, and Bondi designated him as first assistant and appointed him special attorney upon his resignation.

Since that time, Asseli has been supervising prosecutions and appearing on behalf of the United States in cases in his position as first assistant U.S. attorney and as special attorney.

And, yeah, they're just going after him for it.
