How Pirro became a central figure in Trump's D.C. takeover

Season 2025 Episode 245 | 7m 01s

In President Trump’s continued push for greater control over Washington, D.C., he’s relying more on his close friend and former Fox News host, Jeanine Pirro. She’s the new U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, and as William Brangham reports, she brings her outspoken, controversial style to one of the top law enforcement jobs in the nation's capital.
