Jeanine Pirro to Assume Role as Interim U.S. Attorney in Washington, D.C.

According to President Trump, Jeanine Pirro of Fox News fame will temporarily step into the role of the chief federal prosecutor in the nation's capital.

This change sees Pirro succeeding Ed Martin as the interim U.S. attorney. Martin's candidacy was withdrawn by President Trump after he lost favor with the Senate.

Trump expressed his satisfaction, stating, "I am thrilled to reveal that Judge Jeanine Pirro is set to be the interim United States Attorney for Washington D.C. Her exceptional qualifications and recognition as one of New York State's premier District Attorneys set her apart in the field."
