The Lyin', the Witch and the Cabinet

Judge Jeanine Pirro as a US Atrorney? A Surgeon General nominee who isn’t a doctor but might commute to work on a broom? Just another day in Trump’s second term.

Me, earlier this week: “This Ed Martin guy seems like a real wingnut even by MAGAworld standards. And Trump is nominating him to be interim prosecutor for the District of Columbia? Madness! I wish Trump would pull this nomination and appoint someone else.”

Me, today: “You’ve inflicted ironic punishments on me long enough, you damned monkey’s paw!” [hurls monkey’s paw into green bin, since I presume it’s considered organic]

President Donald Trump on Thursday said he had picked Fox News host Jeanine Pirro to serve as interim U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia.

Oh, and Martin’s still hanging around, by the way:

But Martin will remain in the administration as “the new Director of the Weaponization Working Group, Associate Deputy Attorney General, and Pardon Attorney” at the Department of Justice, Trump also announced Thursday on Truth Social.

“In these highly important roles, Ed will make sure we finally investigate the Weaponization of our Government under the Biden Regime, and provide much needed Justice for its victims,” Trump said.

Once again, it’s only the best peop-…you know, I can’t even do it anymore.

And the hits just keep on coming…
