Pirro drops Fed Chair Powell criminal appeal efforts amid ruling

Jeanine Pirro appears to have abandoned her plan to appeal a ruling against her attempt to criminally investigate Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell. Chief Judge James Boasberg of the District of Columbia quashed Pirro's subpoenas, stating there was no specific evidence of wrongdoing presented by her office. The appeal, which was due by Monday, aimed to reinstate demands for evidence regarding cost overruns in Fed renovations. By shifting her legal strategy, Pirro seems to be dropping the demand for such evidence, potentially impacting her ability to conduct grand jury investigations.
