Jeanine Pirro, a former Fox News host and longtime legal figure, has been sworn in as the interim U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia.
President Trump recently announced her appointment, praising her qualifications and experience. Pirro previously served as a judge and district attorney in Westchester County, New York, before transitioning to a media career where she became known for her strong support of Trump.
As interim U.S. Attorney, Pirro is expected to oversee federal prosecutions in the nation’s capital. Her background in law enforcement and her high-profile media presence have drawn attention to her new role. Supporters cite her legal acumen and familiarity with public communication as assets in the position.
Critics, however, have raised concerns about Pirro’s impartiality, given her close ties to President Trump and her past commentary on legal matters involving his administration. Some legal experts question whether her appointment could influence the objectivity of the office’s prosecutorial decisions.
Pirro’s return to a legal role marks a notable transition from her recent career in television. As she assumes her duties in Washington, D.C., observers will be watching how her leadership impacts the operations and priorities of the U.S. Attorney’s Office.
In 2024, Judge Jeanine Pirros salary was $5 MILLION dollars.
As head of the DC US Attorney’s office she will make $195K.
Jeanine isn’t in it for the money or fame.
She already had both.
She’s in it for the love of country.
