A U.S. Justice Department press conference in Washington, D.C., turned contentious on Tuesday when U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro sharply rebuked a reporter who questioned the Trump administration’s commitment to combating violent crime in the nation’s capital.

Pirro, who is awaiting U.S. Senate confirmation, delivered remarks outlining President Donald Trump’s plan to address crime in D.C.

The press conference came one day after the President announced that federal authorities will assume control of the Metropolitan Police Department in an effort to reestablish public safety.

As the event concluded, a reporter asked Pirro whether funding changes under Trump’s recently passed legislation could hinder efforts to address gun violence.

“You said it’s guns on the street that’s causing this problem. Are you concerned that the DOJ’s funding cuts to gun violence prevention programs undermine those efforts?” the reporter asked.

Pirro responded, “Oh, stop it! We are putting all kinds of resources on to the street.”

🔥HOLY MIC DROP! A reporter tried to say that crime in DC is down and @JudgeJeanine wasn’t having it for a SINGLE SECOND!

This is the energy we’ve needed in DC!

“Oh, STOP IT.”

Reporters continued to question Pirro about the prevalence of illegal firearms in Washington and whether deploying National Guard troops would be sufficient to reduce violent crime.

The funding changes referenced in the exchange followed passage of Trump’s signature legislation less than a month ago.

According to a Reuters report, the measure included the elimination of $158 million in grants for gun violence prevention programs established under the Biden-Harris administration.

Those grants had been directed to cities including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Washington, D.C., and Baltimore.

Another $142 million in similar programs remained funded under the legislation.

At the time, a Justice Department spokesperson said the programs were cut because they “no longer effectuate the program’s goals or agency’s priorities.”

Some of the eliminated programs had drawn scrutiny, including an allegation from a whistleblower that Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis misused an anti-gang fund for unrelated expenses.

As part of the new federal initiative, the Trump administration will deploy approximately 800 National Guard soldiers to D.C., with between 100 and 150 on duty at a time.

The Guard troops will operate alongside FBI agents, whose participation was confirmed by FBI Director Kash Patel.

During her remarks, Pirro criticized what she described as “young punks” carrying out brazen daytime shootings in the capital.

Administration officials cited the fatal shooting of an individual on Monday — the same day Trump announced the federal takeover — as an example of the city’s current public safety challenges.

Federal officials say the effort is intended to supplement local resources and demonstrate an increased law enforcement presence in high-crime areas across the city.
