It’s being reported now that President Trump is considering Judge Jeanine Pirro as the interim top prosecutor job in DC after Senator Thom Tillis killed his last nominee.
Here’s the news from ABC:
President Donald Trump is strongly considering installing Fox News host and former prosecutor Jeanine Pirro as interim U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, sources familiar with the matter told ABC News.
The potential selection comes as Trump told reporters in the Oval Office Thursday that Ed Martin, who is currently serving as D.C.’s interim top prosecutor, would not be taking the position permanently after losing support among top Republicans in the Senate.
An announcement about a new interim U.S. attorney could come as soon as today, sources said. Sources caution that plans could always change and a decision is never final until publicly announced by the president.
I assume that this means Pirro would be his nominee and not just an interim prosecutor. Just be wary of the report until it’s announced. But if true, it would be a very interesting pick and one that I would think might get a little opposition considering her comments on voting machines and fraud after the 2020 election.
