Although the GOP scored a victory on that one, not every little thing went easily:
The onetime New York decide and prosecutor and former Fox News host was one of the over 150 still excellent nominees on the Senate’s calendar as Senate Republicans work to discover a path ahead to ram through Senate Democrats’ blockade of Trump’s nominees, and half of a slew of picks to get a vote over the weekend. But just forward of her affirmation vote, the trail to a deal was derailed, and lawmakers opted to ram through just seven of Trump’s nominees before heading home until September.
Many know her as an outspoken Fox News character who repeatedly co-hosts “The Five,” but “Judge Jeanine,” as she’s generally recognized, also has a prolonged legal historical past as famous by the Department of Justice web site:
Jeanine Ferris Pirro was sworn-in as interim United States Attorney for the District of Columbia on May 14, 2025.
Judge Pirro has more than three a long time of expertise in law enforcement. She served as an Assistant District Attorney for Westchester County, NY, before changing into the first feminine decide elected to the Westchester County Court.

I’m cutting the crimson tape and pushing back against the sanctuary metropolis standing of D.C. so that we will defend the hard-working residents of our nation’s capital. No longer will illegals be discovered burrowing in our circumstances in the prison justice system.
I don’t see that the president has commented yet on the affirmation on social media, but he mentioned this in May:
“Jeanine is incredibly well-qualified for this position, and is considered one of the Top District Attorneys in the History of the State of New York,” Trump mentioned when he nominated Pirro. “She is in a class by herself.”
Democrats had tried and failed to paint her as an extremist who defended Trump on tv relating to the occasions of Jan. 6 and his considerations that there was evidence of fraud in the 2020 election. During a committee assembly in July, Senate Dems walked out in a snit over procedural issues regarding Pirro and Emil Bove, who was later confirmed for a spot as decide on the U.S. Court of Appeals.
Jeanine Pirro is deeply unqualified & unfit to be the United States Attorney for DC. She is just a loyal acolyte & sycophant of the President. She will not be goal, she will not be unbiased. Instead she has made her mark spreading damaging, offensive conspiracy theories. pic.twitter.com/H8cmQ6ZzvD
