Donald Trump’s handpicked D.C. prosecutor, Jeanine Pirro, has quietly deployed a rare and aggressive legal weapon amid intense pressure from the White House to lock up the president’s political enemies.
The Justice Department has convened a special grand jury in Washington to probe major cases, a highly unusual move, The Washington Post reported. Unlike standard panels, this body can publish damning reports exposing subjects even if prosecutors lack the evidence to secure an indictment.
Overseeing the effort is Steven Vandervelden, a key Pirro ally previously tapped to investigate former Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and D.C. police crime stats.
