Williams: We Should Be Clear About Jeanine Pirro, She Certainly ‘Got the Qualifications’ To Be a Top Prosecutor

EXCERPT:

WILLIAMS: “Different, but maybe similar, and maybe more likely to get confirmed. Part of the problem, or the issue, is that Ed Martin was so extreme and so, quite frankly, woefully unprepared or unqualified for the position that virtually anybody is going to seem reasonable thereafter. Now, we should be clear about Jeanine Pirro. She certainly nominally got the qualifications to be a senior government official or a top prosecutor. She’s been an elected prosecutor in Westchester County. She served as a career prosecutor, that’s fine, and that’s great, and you want that at the Justice Department. It’s all the other nonsense. And a lot of what you saw and showed there on air showing a staggering lack of independence, or at least professed lack of independence, from the president of United States, which is quite dangerous in that biggest U.S. Attorney’s Office in the country.”
