Under oath, on the 2020 election

“Joe Biden was legitimately elected.”

On Fox News, Jeanine Pirro spent 2020 telling her viewers the election had been stolen. Under oath, she admitted it was “fair and free” and that Joe Biden had won. Trump made her the top federal prosecutor in Washington, where she has investigated the Fed chair, moved to indict Democratic lawmakers, and watched her office’s cases collapse.

Her text to Trump lawyer Sidney Powell · November 2020

Trump made the former Fox host the U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C. She brought the same zeal to the office: she opened a criminal investigation into Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, moved to indict six Democratic lawmakers, and became the public face of the crackdown that put armed troops on the capital's streets. Her cases keep collapsing, her office won only half of its first eight trials, as D.C. juries signaled they no longer trust the Justice Department.
