President Trump’s former lawyer Alina Habba Mildon has been fired by Concord Partners, a secretive company with no public profile, set up by a prominent and wealthy Venezuelan family, which had previously signed Habba Mildon to a $50 million deal.

Habba Mildon had received the contract shortly before Trump pardoned the head of the family, Julio Herrera Velutini, who was facing felony bribery charges in Puerto Rico.

According to The New York Times, Trump recently erupted in anger after learning about Habba Mildon’s $50 million contract. In a letter from last week, Concord Partners said that Habba Mildon was fired due to a “failure to perform duties.” She will still keep $6.5 million that was paid to her, as well as an $8 million signing bonus.

    Why do I have to love something and make it my purpose for forever? It’s fine to find purpose in something for a while, and then changing it up. People do it all the time. One day your purpose is to be successful at work, then maybe you become a parent and all of a sudden your purpose might change.

    Idk, probably you’re right and it’s hard for people, it just feels like the easiest thing in the world to me. There is so much great and interesting stuff out there to occupy yourself with, a job always seems like the saddest option to me.

      Absolutely, but when its hard to find that thing in the first place, the relationships being brief provides more points of possible failure.

      The grass is ALWAYS greener, that saying feels trite but it proves itself over and over.

      Hope you find a job you like a bit more bud, I wish you all the luck in the world 🙏

        Don’t worry about it, I’ve made my peace with the fact that I need to also do some stuff that I’m not crazy about in life. I wish you the best too! What a lovely and respectful chat on the internet haha
