- Jeanine Pirro, the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia, reportedly declined to answer a hypothetical question about prosecuting President Donald Trump if he were to shoot someone.
- The question referenced President Donald Trump's infamous 2016 claim that he could "stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody" and still not lose voters.
- Pirro's spokesperson intervened, stating that the office should focus on its work rather than hypotheticals, leading Pirro to ultimately refuse to answer the question.
- Sources suggest Pirro is vying for the Attorney General position after Pam Bondi's firing, though Pirro has denied having this goal.
- Pirro's tenure as U.S. attorney has been marked by controversy and failures to secure high-profile indictments, including cases against Democratic lawmakers and individuals involved in federal takeovers of the capital.
