Senate Confirms Former Fox Host Jeanine Pirro DC Prosecutor
The U.S. Senate confirmed former Fox News host and judge Jeanine Pirro as the U.S. attorney for Washington D.C., with a 50-45 party-line vote during a rare weekend session. Pirro, who previously served as a New York judge and district attorney, had been acting in the role since May and was nominated by President Donald Trump after withdrawing his initial nominee due to controversy. Her confirmation process was marked by delays and political maneuvering, including Democratic opposition and Senate walkouts, which stalled the confirmation of other Trump nominees. President Trump expressed frustration with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer over the delays but encouraged senators to go on recess and explain the opposition to their constituents. Pirro is part of a broader pattern of Trump appointing former Fox News personalities to key government positions, reinforcing his close ties with the network. The confirmation highlights ongoing partisan divisions in the Senate and the administration’s approach to judicial appointments.
