The US Senate CONFIRM !! Democrat’s Nightmare Just Got Even Bigger !!

The Senate is staying and voting this weekend.

The Senate Judiciary Committee last week advanced the former Fox News host’s appointment as D.C.’s top federal prosecutor on a party-line vote, and she appears well positioned for confirmation by the full chamber.

The top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee heaped pressure on Senate leadership Thursday to oppose Jeanine Pirro’s confirmation as U.S. attorney for D.C., expressing “grave concern” that she would serve as a partisan instrument of the Donald Trump administration in the capital city.

“Over the past decade, Ms. Pirro has consistently demonstrated that her loyalty lies with Donald Trump the person, not with the Constitution or the rule of law,” Maryland Representative Jamie Raskin told Senate Majority Leader John Thune and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer in a letter, obtained exclusively by Courthouse News.

Congressional Democrats are sounding the alarm as the Senate prepares to vote on Pirro’s nomination as D.C.’s top federal prosecutor. The former Fox News host, now serving in an acting capacity, likely has enough Republican support to be confirmed.

Raskin urged Thune and Schumer to reject Trump’s “extreme and appalling” pick.

The D.C. U.S. attorney’s office is the Justice Department’s largest, handling prosecutions in the capital, including cases involving Congress, the executive branch and contempt of Congress.

Raskin argued D.C.’s top prosecutor must be “scrupulously nonpartisan” and said Pirro fails that standard.

Throughout her confirmation process, Pirro has faced criticism for amplifying Trump’s 2020 election fraud claims and defending him after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot. Raskin noted she supported the stolen election theory “vigorously and frequently.”

A former Fox News host, Pirro was named in two 2021 defamation suits by voting machine manufacturers alleging the network spread misinformation about election fraud. Fox News settled with Dominion Voting Systems in 2023 for nearly $800 million.

And while Pirro initially condemned rioters who breached the Capitol in an effort to stop the certification of President Joe Biden’s 2020 election victory, as a nominee, she has taken a cautious stance on Trump’s January decision to issue sweeping pardons for roughly 1,600 people convicted of crimes related to Jan. 6.
