Jeanine Pirro Just Dropped the Mic on Reporters

What’s the expression people on the proper have about the liberal media? You cannot hate the media enough. 

The media confirmed that again during a briefing with U.S. Attorney for D.C. Jeanine Pirro. Pirro was discussing crime in the District and President Donald Trump’s motion to federalize law enforcement in response. Trump is deploying federal brokers and the National Guard to help out.

Now, Trump did not have to take the motion, but including more assets can only help. However, you would not know that from the reporters. One of the reporters requested Pirro about “gun violence prevention programs.”

🚨 🚨🚨 Jeanine Pirro WENT OFF on a reporter making an attempt to inform her that crime is not that unhealthy in D.C.

“Oh, stop it,” Pirro said, shutting that reporter proper down in exasperation. “We are putting all kinds of resources onto the street.” 

Then another reporter tried the “crime is dropping” query and requested, “What changed?” Pirro dropped him. 

“This changed, this changed,” Pirro said, pointing to a board with the faces of people who had been murdered. 

“You tell these families, ‘Crime has dropped.’ You tell the mother of the intern who was shot going out for McDonald’s near the Washington Convention Center, ‘Oh, crime is down.’

You tell the kid who was just beat the hell and back with a severe concussion and a broken nose, ‘Crime is down.’ No, that falls on deaf ears and my ears are deaf to that and that’s why I fight the fight.”

Now that’s a mic drop. That left them silent. I feel they know now they cannot play that with Judge Jeanine. 

The Trump group might have been like Joe Biden and performed nothing. But that’s not Trump, he is intent on fixing points. 

Pirro was referencing the June 30 homicide of Eric Tarpinian-Jachym, 21, who was an intern for Rep. Ron Estes (R-KS), and the violent August third assault on former DOGE staffer Edward Coristine, 19 (the man who was nicknamed “Big Balls”). 

The D.C. Police Union supported the Trump transfer, saying crime was spiraling out of control. Last yr, 70 D.C.-based commerce associations despatched a letter to D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser expressing major concern about “alarming trends” and “horrifying acts of violence” that had been happening across the metropolis. You even had Democrats and members of the media who had to live/work in D.C., whom MSNBC’s Joe Scarborough said had been privately cheering this transfer. Scarborough even associated the textual content from a “very liberal friend” about the Trump transfer. The individual said, “I’ve had too many friends carjacked, shot at. None of us will walk more than 3 blocks after 8 P.M.” All of this blows the Democrat narrative up even more.

The “Oh, it’s not a real problem” take is not going to fly, and making an attempt to argue against doing one thing productive is not going to either. 

Editor’s Note: The days of lawlessness in Washington, D.C. are over. Thanks to President Trump, our nation’s capital will likely be SAFE once again.
