Finally, someone with backbone is taking charge in our nation’s capital. Jeanine Pirro just got confirmed as the new U.S. Attorney for Washington D.C. after a close 50-45 Senate vote. The former Fox News host and longtime Trump ally is already showing criminals that the days of getting a slap on the wrist are over.
Pirro wasted no time putting lawbreakers on notice. She announced that her office will check the immigration status of every single defendant who walks through their doors. This is exactly what President Trump promised when he said he would make D.C. safe and beautiful again.
The new prosecutor is going after gun crimes hard. She made it crystal clear that anyone carrying illegal firearms in D.C. will face the full force of the law. No more catch and release programs that put dangerous criminals back on our streets.
For too long, D.C. has been run by soft liberal politicians who care more about coddling criminals than protecting innocent Americans. Pirro brings over thirty years of real law enforcement experience to clean up this mess. She was the first female district attorney in Westchester County and knows how to get results.
The crime emergency in D.C. is real and everyone knows it. The city had the fourth highest murder rate in the entire country last year. While liberals make excuses, Pirro is taking action to save lives and restore order to our capital.
President Trump and Pirro are even talking about bringing in the National Guard to help local police. This shows just how serious the crime problem has become under years of failed liberal leadership. Sometimes you need strong measures to fix big problems.
The police union is already celebrating Pirro’s confirmation because they know she will back them up. For years, the D.C. Council has handcuffed cops with ridiculous progressive reforms that only help criminals. Those days are ending fast.
Young thugs who think they can terrorize innocent people better think again. Pirro made it clear that the free ride is over and real consequences are coming. Americans deserve to feel safe in their own capital city, and Judge Pirro is the right person to make that happen.
