  • Jeanine Pirro briefly entered politics in ill-fated attempts to run for the US Senate and for New York Attorney General, losing the latter race to Democrat Andrew Cuomo.

Donald Trump has appointed Jeanine Pirro, a former judge and Fox News host, as the top Washington prosecutor, a move that has sparked controversy due to her strong support for Trump and her history of making controversial statements. Pirro, who has no prior experience as a federal prosecutor, will oversee high-profile cases in the nation's capital, including those related to the January 6th Capitol riot.
