Justice Department officials are preparing to swear in former Fox News host Jeanine Pirro as interim U.S. attorney for Washington, D.C., on Wednesday. Pirro, a former New York judge and prosecutor, was named by President Donald Trump last Thursday to a 120-day interim appointment.

Jeanine Pirro, co-host of the Fox News show “The Five,” will leave the network immediately after being appointed as interim U.S. attorney for Washington, D.C. A representative for Fox News confirmed her departure after Trump announced Thursday on Truth Social he has named Pirro for the position currently held on an interim basis by Ed Martin.

Jeanine Pirro is exiting Fox News to become interim U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, President Trump announced Thursday.
