Jeanine Pirro and several other Trump US attorney nominees advanced out of the Senate Judiciary Committee Thursday, taking them one step closer to a final confirmation vote on the Senate floor.

Pirro is a former District Attorney, judge, and politician in the state of New York, as well as a popular former Fox News host.

The committee voted 12-10, along party lines, to approve her for the role of top federal prosecutor for the District of Columbia amid repeated disruptions by a Soros-funded activist group.

According to Bloomberg,  Pirro and the others were voted out of the committee last week, but the Democrat walkout over the circuit court nomination of Justice Department official Emil Bove left Republicans without a quorum.

After a consulting with the Senate parliamentarian, Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) reportedly scheduled a re-vote.

The other nominees, including Erik Siebert as US attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, were approved as a bloc via voice vote. Some Democrats recorded no votes on specific nominees.

Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah) said paid agitators from the group “Free DC” disrupted the hearing multiple times.

“We’ve now had our fourth and fifth “Free DC” protester outbursts,” Lee posted on X. “They couldn’t have chosen a worse set of messages or a less-persuasive group of people to deliver those messages. Not sure who is paying these protesters, but that money is going to waste.”

According to the group’s website, Free DC is a “special project” of the Center For Community Change (CCC) nonprofits Community Change and Community Change Action, which are heavily funded by George Soros’ Open Society Foundation.
