Jeanine Pirro remains the confirmed U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia as of September 2026, following Senate confirmation in August 2025 after interim service starting in May. Trader pricing around a 28% chance of her departure by year-end largely reflects the early August 2026 Reflecting Pool controversy, when her office dismissed vandalism charges after evidence showed construction defects rather than intentional damage, prompting President Trump to publicly criticize the decision as a fold under pressure and summon her to the White House. The episode highlighted tensions over case outcomes and administration priorities but ended without removal after their meeting. Additional context includes reported mistrials, acquittals, and staffing pressures in the office, though Pirro has continued announcing prosecutions and public actions into September without further high-profile clashes. As a presidential appointee serving at will, any shift hinges on future case results or personnel reviews before the December 31 resolution window.
