**Jeanine Pirro remains the confirmed U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia as of mid-September 2026, following Senate confirmation in August 2025 after interim service began in May.** Trader odds on her departure by year-end reflect ongoing tension from the August 2026 Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool matter, in which her office dismissed vandalism charges after evidence pointed to faulty renovation work rather than criminal damage. President Trump publicly rebuked the decision, stating she had “choked” and “folded like an umbrella,” and urged reconsideration during a White House meeting, though he did not remove her or accept a resignation. Pirro has continued in the role, delivering higher prosecution rates and reported crime reductions in prior months while facing questions about staff turnover and case outcomes. As a presidential appointee, her position depends on administration priorities and any further developments in the Reflecting Pool dispute or related matters. Recent public statements show her deflecting follow-up inquiries on the case without indicating imminent exit.
