Fox News host Jeanine Pirro was previously ticketed for excessive speeding in upstate New York after state police clocked her driving 119 mph, nearly double the speed limit, so of course, Donald J. Trump announced on Truth Social that he has tapped her to serve as the top prosecutor in the District of Columbia.
What’s next? Perhaps Trump will announce Andrew Tate as head of the National Institutes of Health, which funds the Women’s Health Initiative. Pirro has appeared to be wasted on at least a few Fox episodes, so this tracks.
Oh, and her husband is a piece of work, too. Albert J. Pirro was indicted on 66 counts of federal tax fraud. The Feds say Pirro hid $1 million in income between 1988 and 1997, claiming dozens of personal luxuries as business expenses, from his $123,000 Ferrari to his wife’s Mercedes-Benz, New York Magazine reported in 1999. And she hasn’t practiced law in 20 years. Just normal stuff!
Lumpy took to Truth Social to describe her as a “powerful crusader,” and I’m about to start getting stabby.
