Trump Criticizes US Attorney Pirro Over Reflecting Pool Case Amid Firing Speculation
US Attorney Jeanine Pirro met with President Donald Trump amid scrutiny over her decision to drop charges against an Olympian accused of damaging the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. Trump criticized Pirro's handling of the case, calling her performance weak, but has not confirmed any decision to remove her. The charges were dismissed after new evidence suggested the damage resulted from installation flaws rather than vandalism. Speculation about Pirro's firing arose following a video of her leaving the White House, but no official confirmation has been made.
