I guess Trump tapping "Judge" Drinky McWineBox for DOJ was inevitable. At least it's not the SCOTUS...

'Break out the breathalyzer': Mockery swells as Trump eyes Fox News' Jeanine Pirro for DOJ

President Donald Trump is considering having Fox News host Jeanine Pirro take over as interim U.S. attorney in Washington, D.C., after the current acting and nominated lawyer, Ed Martin, failed to coalesce Republican support for Senate confirmation, ABC News reported Thursday.

While some commented simply, "an outside the box choice," and "Not at all a surprise," others quickly mocked the choice.

"Break out the breathalyzer," jabbed national security lawyer Bradley P. Moss, referring to accusations that she was "tipsy" during an on-air appearance in 2020. Pirro emphatically denied the allegations, but it didn't stop the mockery mill at "Saturday Night Live" from creating their own drunken Pirro character played by Cecily Strong.

"People never want to hear this, but as someone who has covered Fox News for years (and broken many stories about it), I can tell you that Judge Jeanine does not drink. As for other substances, I have no idea," commented reporter Yashar Ali.
