Excerpt:
Democrat Newark Mayor Ras Baraka filed a lawsuit against Interim US Attorney Alina Habba for “false arrest and malicious prosecution.”
Ricky Patel, a Special Agent in Charge of the Newark Division of Homeland Security, was also named as a defendant.
Baraka’s lawyers accused Alina Habba of acting as a “political operative” in the 17-page complaint.

The lawsuit alleges Alina Habba violated Ras Baraka’s Constitutional rights, including his Fourth Amendment, First Amendment and Fifth Amendment rights.
On Monday evening, Alina Habba blasted Ras Baraka after his office ‘leaked’ that he was planning to file a lawsuit against the Feds.
“Shocking” leak from Mayor Baraka’s team: He is planning to sue the Feds.
My advice to the mayor – feel free to join me in prioritizing violent crime and public safety. Far better use of time for the great citizens of New Jersey.
