(This post may contain disputed claims. We make no assertions as to the validity of the information presented by our Opinion Columnist. We are an opinion blog, not a traditional news outlet, and this post should be treated as such. Enjoy.)Judge Jeanine Pirro was back on Fox News Saturday night after a two-week absence. The firey judge and former district attorney was suspended, it’s reported, after she said Rep. Ilhan Omar’s s hijab was “indicative of her adherence to Sharia law, which in itself is antithetical to the United States Constitution.” Well, the good judge immediately made sure Omar and her Democratic cohorts knew she isn’t backing down. You’ll love this.
Fans of Judge Jeanine Pirro’s Fox News show Justice were excited to see she was back at her normal time slot Saturday night. But they weren’t the only ones tuning in. The leftwing media and their Democratic cohorts were also watching, hoping to see a chastised and apologetic Pirro.
Judge Jeanine’s two-week absence was reported as a “suspension” by CNN, who claimed they had inside sources.
“Pirro was suspended by Fox after she read a scripted commentary questioning Congresswoman Ilhan Omar’s patriotism on her March 9 broadcast. It was widely criticized as Islamophobic — even by some people inside the network,” CNN reported. “Fox publicly condemned the host’s comments — and, according to a source familiar with the matter, privately suspended her.”
So these leftwing rats were excited Saturday night thinking Judge Jeanine, one of the president’s biggest supporters, would come back and immediately have to make an on-air apology to Rep. Omar. But that didn’t happen.
In fact, the leftist magazine Vanity Fair was very disappointed. “AFTER A TWO-WEEK ABSENCE, JEANINE PIRRO’S FOX NEWS RETURN WAS ANYTHING BUT QUIET, “ blared their headline. “The embattled Justice with Judge Jeanine host and Trump cheerleader resurfaced Saturday with fire and brimstone,” they added.
Even though advertisers like Allergan, Letgo, NerdWallet, Novo Nordisk and more pulled out of her show after the controversy, the good Judge sent a message loud and clear to Rep. Omar: she isn’t apologizing now or ever.
Fox News stayed “mum” on Pirro’s two-week absence, but one thing is crystal clear and that is the overwhelming outrage over her absence by hardcore Trump supporters cornered the network into bringing Jeanine back. She wasn’t going to apologize, but we bet Fox News tried like hell to make her.
“This weekend’s return episode opted not to call attention to Pirro’s absence — only featuring the host thanking loyal viewers at the program’s close,” added Vanity Fair. “Her guest, presidential lawyer Rudy Giuliani, at least alluded to Pirro reclaiming her pulpit. ‘At this time that our country is in trouble, we need your common sense voice. We need you,’ he added. ‘It’s an honor to be with you again.'”
Judge Jeanine exploded out of the gate, pressing her most loyal viewers to “make an example of the traitorous, treasonous group that accused Donald Trump of being an agent of the Russian government.”
“I want to know who did the unmasking, who did the leaking,” Pirro said sharply in her opening statement. “And if we don’t have a consequence, if people at the highest level of government are not held responsible for this, then it is a blueprint for a future effort to overthrow the government.”
Americans loyal to President Trump and Judge Jeanine were celebrating. “Glad to have you back Judge Jeanine. The left tried to silence but it failed,” posted “Melissa A.” That tweet alone got 5.5 thousand likes and was a response to Judge Jeanine’s opening statement.
Glad to have you back Judge Jeanine. The left tried to silence but it failed.

Then we had one leftist troll who was so upset Judge Jeanine was back. They took umbrage with her opening statement that excoriated Robert Mueller. “Pompous & arrogance, is your M.O.,” tweeted Frank D’Angelo to Judge Jeanine. “Did you read the Mueller report? Condescending, annoying & patronizing! is your platform! As an opinionated, manipulative half-truths host! Sooner or later! your own poisonous words, will get you fired once & for all!”
Well, a seasoned Trump supporter and fan of the good Judge responded to the leftist troll, tweeting, “You are crazy! Fox knows if they try and get Judge Jeanine gone or fired they won’t have anyone watching them, You are just a leftist in other words a crook, just like Hillary, Obama, Pelosi, Schomer, Comey, And They rest of the clowns that are trying to be socialist country.”

Judge Jeanine Pirro’s return caused the leftwing media and their cohorts to have an epic meltdown. Oh, they were so hoping the former Westchester District Attorney would be taken down a notch and made to grovel at Rep. Ilhan Omar’s feet.
Instead, Judge Jeanine picked up right where she left off. Indeed, she was “fire and brimstone” bringing the heat to the leftwing rats, totally disappointing all their hopes she would come back and have to temper her message.
When it got down to the nitty-gritty, Fox News knew they would suffer a massive loss of viewers if they sacked Judge Jeanine, and it’s quite clear she told them “no apology.” Judge Jeanine slices through leftist rhetoric and takes no prisoners. That’s why Americans love her.
