The American Senate confirmed on Saturday the appointment of the former judge and television personality Jeanine Pirro to the key to Washington prosecutor, making her the latest presenter of Fox News appointed by Donald Trump to high functions.
Jeanine Pirro was appointed Public Procurer of the District of Columbia by 50 votes against 45, after an express request from President Donald Trump so that the Senate, dominated by the Republicans, works this weekend to approve her appointments.
In May, the president Fondand of television, who has largely drawn from the pool of conservative media animators to recruit the members of his administration, had appointed Jeanine Pirro with acting in the Federal capital.
“A class apart”
Westchester’s former prosecutor in New York, 74, was described by President Trump as belonging to “a separate class”.
She made a name for herself by hosting several television programs including “Justice Withge Jeanine” (justice with judge Jeanine) broadcast for 11 years on Fox News, the favorite channel of the Conservatives.
With her prosecutor’s position in the capital, one of the most important in the country, Jeanine Pirro thus joins the ranks of other recruits for high functions within continuous information chains.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth co-hosted the program “Fox & Friends Weekend” and the Secretary of Transports Sean Duffy, was a candidate for reality TV and co-presenting programs on Fox Business.
Taxed of conspiratorial by democrats
Dick Durbin, the main elected democrat sitting on the Senate judicial commission, said Jeanine Pirro “should never be a permanent American prosecutor”. Dick Durbin reported the promotion by Jeanine Pirro of conspiracy theories concerning the 2020 election, which Trump lost to Joe Biden.
It was also one of the featured presenters cited in a defamation complaint of the manufacturer of voting machines Dominion, which ended in the fox news from the stammered sum of $ 787.5 million to end the prosecution.
Jeanine Pirro is the author of several books in support of Donald Trump.
