💨 Abstract

President Donald Trump announced he will nominate a new US Attorney for Washington, DC, replacing Ed Martin. Martin's nomination faced significant opposition due to his views on the January 6, 2021, Capitol attack and past controversial statements. Trump is considering Fox News host Jeanine Pirro for the role. The move highlights a rare break between Trump and Republican lawmakers, who did not support Martin. The replacement's nomination is yet to be finalized.
