President Donald Trump just shook up the swamp again — this time by handing the keys to the D.C. U.S. Attorney’s Office to none other than Judge Jeanine Pirro. Yep, the same firecracker from Fox News is now stepping into one of the highest-profile legal roles in the country — and the Left is already clutching their pearls.
“I am pleased to announce that Judge Jeanine Pirro will be appointed interim United States Attorney for the District of Columbia. Jeanine was Assistant District Attorney for Westchester County, New York, and then went on to serve as County Judge, and District Attorney, where she was the first woman ever to be elected to those positions,” Trump posted proudly on Truth Social.

If anyone thought this appointment was just about name recognition, think again. Judge Jeanine’s resume doesn’t just speak — it roars.
“During her time in office, Jeanine was a powerful crusader for victims of crime. Her establishment of the Domestic Violence Bureau in her Prosecutor’s Office was the first in the Nation. She excelled in all ways. In addition to her Legal career, Jeanine previously hosted her own Fox News Show, Justice with Judge Jeanine, for ten years, and is currently Co-Host of The Five, one of the Highest Rated Shows on Television,” Trump added.
So yeah, she’s got brains, grit, and more courtroom swagger than half the DOJ combined. And in case there was any doubt about how serious this is, Trump sealed it with praise that’ll make liberal heads spin:
“Jeanine is incredibly well qualified for this position, and is considered one of the Top District Attorneys in the History of the State of New York. She is in a class by herself. Congratulations Jeanine!”
Let’s talk facts. Pirro kicked off her legal career in 1978 as an Assistant DA in Westchester County. She quickly earned a rep for being tough-as-nails — especially when it came to domestic violence and sex crimes. She didn’t just work the system; she broke glass ceilings while doing it, becoming the first woman elected as a Westchester County Court Judge.
By 1993, she was elected District Attorney and held that spot for three terms. That’s over a decade of laying down the law with no apologies.
Sure, she took a couple of shots at higher office — a Senate run in 2005 and a bid for New York Attorney General in 2006 — but hey, even the boldest fighters have a few battles that don’t go their way. Doesn’t change the fact that Judge Jeanine is still one of the most recognizable, fearless voices in conservative America.
Now she’s heading to D.C., where crime is out of control and the justice system’s been hijacked by political hacks. Looks like Judge Jeanine’s about to bring a little law, order, and attitude back to the capital.
Buckle up, Washington — Mama Judge is coming to town.
