At least two of Donald Trump’s top 2024 aides are planning to sue Michael Wolff over his forthcoming book about the president’s campaign.
Wolff’s bombshell new work will hit shelves on Tuesday, but the claims he made in the book are already causing massive waves in Trump’s inner circle.
Counselor to the President Alina Habba and Chris LaCivita, who as co-manager to now-White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles propelled Trump to victory in November, tell DailyMail.com they are suing the author.
‘I will now also be adding Michael Wolff to my upcoming lawsuit against the Daily Beast,’ LaCivita revealed.
And Habba warned: ‘Michael Wolff, prepare to hear from my lawyers.’
‘This book is a pure desperate money grab and if someone is going to write a book of fiction, they better make sure I’m not able to prove it’s full of lies,’ she adds. ‘Perhaps he missed the memo – there are manifests that can prove and disprove basic information, but Wolff is clearly not interested in the truth.’
Wolff did not respond to a request for comment on threats of legal action.
The controversial author writes in his book All or Nothing, of which an early copy was obtained and reviewed by DailyMail.com, that LaCivita got into a feud with Habba that resulted in him kicking her off Trump’s campaign plane.
But both parties tell DailyMail.com that there was no fight, and Habba, who was a senior advisor to Trump’s 2024 campaign, never had her space on the aircraft revoked.
A person familiar with the alleged incident claims the story is ‘garbage.’
Habba and LaCivita describe themselves as ‘very good friends.’
One source says it’s true LaCivita banned 2016 campaign aide Corey Lewandowski from Trump Force One during the 2024 campaign, but divulges that he did not take that action against any other individuals.

Alina Habba called the claims in Wolff’s book completely false
Wolff claims Lewandowski was lobbying for a job in Trump’s 2024 campaign, and that he wanted to help the former aide out because he was a loyalist that helped with his 2016 victory.
‘But then Lewandowski— again and again, pushed to the margins of the Trump circle precisely because he can’t contain his exaggerated sense of self or, often, his hands— starts saying he’s being brought in as ‘chairman’ above Susie and Chris,’ Wolff writes.
Trump tried to tamper those claims by clarifying that Lewandowski was ‘my special envoy’ to the campaign.
LaCivita did not join the White House after the campaign victory.
But Habba now has a desk just steps from the Oval Office. She had an explosive rise in Trump world after being brought on as his personal attorney in 2021 to defend him in a series of lawsuits.
Habba quickly became the face of his legal team and favorite among MAGA fanatics.
Wolff claims in his forthcoming book that there was a massive fight on Trump’s campaign plane this fall that resulted in Habba, who was a senior campaign advisor at the time, losing and then swiftly re-obtaining her seat.

He also called her part of Trump’s ‘Charlie’s Angels’ joining him at an NCAA wrestling championship meet and suggested that she got her job as Trump’s defense attorney by ‘hanging out in a bikini by the pool at Trump’s Bedminster club.’
‘Michael Wolff has continued the traditional, pathetic, chauvinistic narrative about women,’ Habba fired back in a statement to DailyMail.com.
‘Lucky for me, writing something as palpably false about an NCAA event that I DIDN’T EVEN ATTEND goes to show that Wolff not only has the facts wrong, but didn’t even care to engage in the basic journalistic standard of fact-checking.’
Wolff’s assertion in the final pages of his book about the airplane fight states that LaCivita got ‘power over the plane manifest’ and decided to boot Habba, claiming they were in a feud at the time.
He also allegedly kicked off Lewandowski and ‘others whom he disapproved of, didn’t like, or didn’t want.’
Trump dismissed the book as a ‘fake job’ and compared them to other ‘junk’ books the author has published in recent years analyzing his political rise.
The president said that Wolff called him to try and set up an interview to add to the book.
‘I didn’t want to give him the credibility of an interview,’ Trump wrote on his Truth Social account, telling his followers no to ‘waste their time or money in buying this boring and obviously fictitious book!’
‘Others in the Administration were also called, they reported his calls, and likewise, did not talk to him,’ the president insisted of his staff. ‘I assume, however, he was able to speak to a small number of people, but not meaningfully.’

Trump slammed the forthcoming book as a ‘total FAKE JOB’ and called author Wolff a ‘loser’
Trump cast doubt on whether Wolff, who he called a ‘loser,’ spoke with anyone close to the campaign who could corroborate the stories he retells in the 379-page book.
‘Wolff says he has sources, but he doesn’t have them, it’s a LIE, as is the case with many so-called ‘journalists.’ If he has sources, let them be revealed,’ the president demanded. ‘Watch, it will never happen.’
In November, LaCivita and other senior staff released a statement noting they were contacted by Wolff for his next book, but they did not respond.
LaCivita and Jason Miller, a 2024 senior Trump campaign advisor, released a statement this month calling All or Nothing a ‘work of fiction.’
‘The scenes are imaginary, the conversations are fake, the dialogue is made-up, and once again, just like his other books falsely attacking President Trump, nobody believes any of it,’ they said in the joint statement.
In his book, Wolff asserts that Habba didn’t take the news that she would no longer be allowed on Trump Force One well and ‘went immediately to Trump, who restored her seat on the plane.’
Wolff also alleged that Habba added fuel to the fire by bringing to the then-candidate who was just days away from being reelected a Daily Beast report showing LaCivita had been paid $22 million by Trump.
The left-leaning outlet is already being sued by LaCivita after it reported he personally received the funds, when it was actually his firm that Trump paid $19.2 million.
LaCivita’s campaign co-manager Susie Wiles, who is now White House Chief of Staff, apparently got in hot water with Trump, according to Wolff’s retelling in the book, for not telling him how much her colleague was being paid.
‘[Trump] turned on Wiles, too, for not protecting his money,’ Wolff writes.
A person familiar with claims of this incident said: ‘This is absolutely garbage and a made-up rumor intended to cause problems within the campaign.’

White House Communications Director Steven Cheung told DailyMail.com: ‘Michael Wolff has once again beclowned himself by peddling outright lies, but he has no shame or morals so he continues to sell his soul in order to try to make a quick buck so he can desperately make ends meet.’
‘Susie and Chris are the most honorable people to the highest degree, and the disgustingly false Daily Beast article was quickly disproven by easily verifiable facts and receipts,’ he added.
Someone aware of Habba’s standing in Trump’s circles says she remains a ‘key ally to LaCivita’ and insists he never tried to get her banned from the so-called Trump Force One campaign plane.
Habba also told DailyMail.com during an interview at the White House earlier this month that Wiles has been a ‘mentor’ to her.
She also says that Wiles was the one who brought her onto the administration’s team.
