U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro appeared on FOX News tonight, her first appearance on the network since leaving there to work for the Trump administration.
Pirro spoke to host Laura Ingraham about the problem of youth violence in Washington, DC and suggested that there will be a new effort to get tougher on this issue. Pirro says that young offenders have been ‘coddled’ by liberal leaders in the city.
She also made specific references to the attack on DOGE worker ‘Big Balls’ this week.
FOX News reports:
DC US attorney says ‘enough is enough’ as youth crime puts spotlight on nation’s capital
The top federal prosecutor in the nation’s capital called for more accountability over rehabilitation for youth crimes as her office focuses on enhancing enforcement and increasing staffing.
Jeanine Pirro, a former Fox News co-host who was confirmed by the U.S. Senate on Saturday as the U.S. attorney for D.C., told “The Ingraham Angle” on Wednesday that she wants to help enact President Donald Trump’s vision of making the federal district “safe” and “beautiful.”
“Youth violence is on the rise — not just in D.C., but across the country. And if you think that these kids need to be coddled and they need to be hugged — they need to have consequences, they need to understand that enough is enough, that we’re going to put them in jail or some kind of youth rehabilitation detention facility and not allow the D.C. Council — one of whom I just recently indicted — to take cover for these kids,” Pirro said.
“It’s time to end it. That’s what the president wants, that’s what we’re going to do.”

Pirro was obviously an excellent choice for this role.
