"Fact Check: Fox News' Claim on Trump Attorney Alina Habba's Law Firm's $1.7M Federal Tax Liens"
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Yahoo News
A parody account on social media falsely claimed that Fox News reported that former President Donald Trump's defense attorney, Alina Habba, had a law firm with five federal tax liens totaling $1.7 million. The claim originated from a satirical post and was not based on any factual reporting. While Habba and her husband do have some tax liens, the amount is significantly lower than what was claimed. ABC News has reported that Habba's law firm has been paid $3.6 million from Trump's political action committees.
