Enjoy.)Judge Jeanine Pirro’s show “Justice” was replaced Saturday night by Fox News without any explanation from the network. “Justice with Judge Jeanine” has been the highest-rated program at the Saturday night time slot. After the Judge questioned Rep. Ilhan Omar’s adherence to Sharia law, hardcore leftists have waged a war to remove her. Well, now President Donald Trump just destroyed Fox News. Don’t miss this.
Judge Jeanine Pirro’s show didn’t air on Saturday night. Fox News ran a re-run of a show called “Scandalous” during its time slot. The former Westchester County DA came under fire from the usual suspects on the left for questioning Rep. Omar’s recent anti-Semitic remarks and asking if the Congresswoman’s adherence to Sharia law was affecting her ability to be true to the Constitution.
“Pirro is facing criticism after appearing to suggest on her program last Saturday that Omar wears a hijab in defiance of the Constitution. ‘Think about this: She’s not getting this anti-Israel sentiment doctrine from the Democrat Party. So if it’s not rooted in the party, where is she getting it from?’ Pirro asked during her opening segment,” Breitbart reported.
Judge Jeanine added, “Think about it. Omar wears a hijab, which according to the Quran 33:59, tells women to cover so they won’t get molested. Is her adherence to this Islamic doctrine indicative of her adherence to Sharia law, which in itself is antithetical to the United States Constitution?”
But that’s not all. Pirro’s remarks weren’t just about the “hijab.” They also included the ridiculous “Hate Resolution” that the Democrats signed as a response to Omar’s anti-Semitic statements.
“[Ilhan Omar] is clear and pointed in her hatred,” Judge Jeanine said. “Her comments are only critical of Jews and Israel. Not Italy, not Morrocco, not North Korea, but Israel. The fact [Nancy Pelosi] didn’t have the backbone, grit, or gumption to draft a resolution that included her name tells me [Pelosi is] the stupid one.”
In a statement to Deadline, a Fox News spokesperson said the network would not comment on “internal scheduling matters.” Fox News denounced Pirro’s comments last Sunday, saying in a statement: “We strongly condemn Jeanine Pirro’s comments about Rep. Ilhan Omar. They do not reflect those of the network and we have addressed the matter with her directly.”
But the vast majority of Fox News viewers are outraged over the condemnation of Judge Jeanine by the Fox News network. Now that the network felt the need to replace the airing of her show last Saturday, President Trump went on a Twitter rant decrying Fox News for alienating their viewers with PC garbage and excoriating the decision.
“Bring back @JudgeJeanine Pirro. The Radical Left Democrats, working closely with their beloved partner, the Fake News Media, is using every trick in the book to SILENCE a majority of our Country. They have all out campaigns against @FoxNews hosts who are doing too well. Fox must stay strong and fight back with vigor. Stop working soooo hard on being politically correct, which will only bring you down, and continue to fight for our Country. The losers all want what you have, don’t give it to them. Be strong & prosper, be weak & die!”
Trump added, “Stay true to the people that got you there. Keep fighting for Tucker, and fight hard for @JudgeJeanine. Your competitors are jealous – they all want what you’ve got – NUMBER ONE. Don’t hand it to them on a silver platter. They can’t beat you, you can only beat yourselves!”

But the president was just getting warmed up. He also blasted Fox News’ weekend anchors and Shep Smith, tweeting: “Were @FoxNews weekend anchors, @ArthelNeville and @LelandVittert, trained by CNN prior to their ratings collapse? In any event, that’s where they should be working, along with their lowest rated anchor, Shepard Smith!”

Trump supporters have been complaining about Shep Smith for two years, and for good reason. Smith, who is Fox News’ chief news anchor, has a show every weekday afternoon on which he often vocalizes criticism of Trump and his policies. Last year, he signed a multi-year contract to stay on with Fox News, despite dubbing it “the craziest conservative network on Earth” and “the freaky place where I’m working right now” in a speech in 2017.
During an interview with Time last year, he said, “I wonder, if I stopped delivering the facts, what would go in its place in this place that is most watched, most listened, most viewed, most trusted?”
Conservatives will tell you they turn off Shep Smith daily, and now that Fox News is playing games with Judge Jeanine, those same Fox viewers are livid with thousands of comments bashing the decision to pre-empt “Justice.”
We bet the executives at Fox News are testing the waters to see if they can get away with canceling Judge Jeanine for good. Based on the outcry by President Trump and the backlash by the conservative base, it will be the biggest mistake in Fox News’ history if they permanently cancel the good Judge’s show.
If you love Judge Jeanine, make sure to share this information far and wide. Get on social media and let Fox News know if they let Judge Jeanine go you’ll never watch their network again. We need strong conservative voices like Jeanine Pirro, who asks the exact questions every patriotic American is thinking. Don’t let Rep. Ilhan Omar and the Democratic rats win.
