Washington — President Trump on Monday publicly rebuked Jeanine Pirro, his handpicked U.S.
Attorney for the District of Columbia, for dropping the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool vandalism case, and ignored questions about whether he intends to fire her.
The Justice Department submitted a court filing Friday moving to dismiss vandalism charges against 67-year-old former Olympian David Hearn, saying the Interior Department incorrectly attributed damage in the pool's lining to vandalism and that evidence showed "contractor error" and a "botched installation" were to blame.
The president snapped at one reporter who asked if he's reconsidering her role as U.S. attorney, and ignored another question from a reporter about whether he'll fire Pirro.
