What happened

Jeanine Pirro, the U.S. attorney for D.C., met with President Trump at the White House on Monday after he publicly said she “choked” and “folded like an umbrella” by moving to drop the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool case. Her office on Friday asked to dismiss the felony vandalism charge against former Olympic canoeist David Hearn, stating the pool damage resulted from flawed contractor installation rather than vandalism. Prosecutors also moved to dismiss misdemeanor charges against three other defendants. Trump did not say whether Pirro’s job was safe.
