Judge Jeanine Pirro hates being called a a DUI Hire ! ( and we’ll drink to that)

As The Orange Man in The White House continues to fill his Cabinet and other important official positions, he continues to raid Fox News for his unqualified candidates. (the count is 29 so far)   The latest being Judge Jeannie Pirro  as DC US Attorney iand whose unofficial claim to fame is that she has been DRUNK ON AIR more than any other presenter .and it makes her angry and belligerent: take a look at this  clip here :

Incidentally if you have a lot of spare times on your hands just do a Google Search on Judge Jeannie drunk’ and you’ll find a fair choice of different videos.  Alhough to be fair she is not the only Fox employer that loved to ‘drink’ that the Orange Man gave a plum job too.   Hegseth,  The Orange Man’s pick for defense secretary, drank in ways that concerned his colleagues at Fox News, according to 10 current and former Fox employees who spoke with NBC News.

You will also discover that Judge Jeannie got a speeding ticket for driving 119 miles per hour!!!!! (not sure if she had a drop or two then!). It’s evidently  something of a tradition in her family as her husband (of the time) got caught driving at 98 mph

But then again that’s small fry compared to Mr. Pirro’s trial for tax evasion in 2000 for which he was convicted and sentenced to 29 years in prison.  At the time couple’s luxury car collection was enumerated for the jury. It included Bentleys, several Mercedes, several more sport utility vehicles and a Ferrari 348 Spider that cost more than $120,000.  He served just 11 years before Trump pardoned him at the end of the last year of Trump’s first term as president after  Jeanine Pirro lobbied Trump. 

After Trump’s 2020 loss to Joe Biden, Pirro made false statements about the election that were part of a lawsuit against Fox News .  She was one of the network’s loudest 2020 election conspiracy cheerleaders even after her own producers corrected her, as detailed in the Dominion Voting Systems defamation lawsuit that Fox ultimately settled for $787 million. any that makes voting machines. 

The final word on her unsuitablity comes from the Human Rights Campaign, the nation’s largest national LGBTQ advocacy organization  who considers Pirro’s appointment “a slap in the face of justice“.  Brandon Wolf, the group’s national press secretary. said  Given her insulting comments about transgender people, the people of D.C. cannot count on Pirro to protect the rights of all of our residents and visitors. “As U.S. Attorney, she would be responsible for prosecuting hate crimes and civil rights violations but based on her time as a Fox News talking head, she can be expected to advance the administration’s anti-LGBTQ+ agenda, including non-enforcement of critical civil rights protections,.

PS Now in case you feel that I am maybe a tad hard on the Judge (!), then check out this video from 2018  where the fabulous Whoopi Goldberg said it as it is
