Ex-Fox News host named prosecutor

Bangkok Post

August 04, 2025

The US Senate on Saturday confirmed former television personality and judge Jeanine Pirro to a key US judiciary post, making her the latest Donald Trump-nominated Fox News host to join the government.

Pirro was confirmed to become the US Attorney for the District of Columbia in a 50-45 vote, as Mr Trump urged the Republican-led Senate to work through the weekend to approve his nominations over six months after he returned to the White House.

Pirro was named to the position in an interim capacity by Mr Trump — who has made a habit of filling powerful government posts with right-wing television network hosts and hardline loyalists — in May.
