U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro Gives Major Update on Trump Surge to Fight Crime in Washington, DC (VIDEO)
Judge Jeanine Pirro, now the U.S. Attorney for Washington, DC just gave an update on the efforts of the Trump administration to fight crime in the city and it’s all good news.
In the video below, Pirro compares current crime statistics to those in recent years and the worst crimes are way down across the board.
Have you noticed that you don’t hear Democrats and the media talking about this anymore? There’s a very obvious reason for that. They don’t want to report the good news.
Townhall reports:
United States Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro shared a great update on the Trump administration’s push to clean up the streets of our nation’s capital, noting that an approach to crime that actually arrests and jails criminals makes streets safer for law-abiding citizens.
“Here I am in D.C.,” Pirro says, “and we’re still talking about the surge. It’s been a little over three months, from August 7th to November 17, and the number of arrests are 6,362. The number of guns seized are 610 guns.”
“Now, you’ve got to put that into perspective and I’m going to do that by comparing the numbers from what it was in 2023,” Pirro continues. “The violent crimes were 60 percent higher in 2023 than they are right now as a result of the surge. Carjackings in 2023 were 80 percent higher. Homicides were 72 percent higher. And violent gun crimes were 75 percent higher.”
“The difference even between 90 days before the surge and the surge is dramatic,” Pirro says. “It shows the difference that it makes when law enforcement works together, when the focus is making sure that criminals are apprehended, when the deterrent effect of law enforcement being on the street is ever-present, then we’re able to really protect the people who live in the district.”

Pirro is doing a fantastic job in this role, she was obviously a great choice by Trump.
When are the Democrats going to admit that they were wrong to criticize Trump for making our capital city safe again? They threw a fit about this until crime started dropping, now they never want to talk about it anymore. What changed?
