Jeanine Pirro Whines About Lack Of Water Delivery At New Trump Administration Job In Bizarre Video

Former Fox News host Jeanine Pirro is settling into her new job as the U.S. Attorney for Washington, D.C. by sharing a video complaining about the lack of a water delivery for her office's water cooler—and no one was a fan of it.

Just a week into her new role, Pirro posted a bizarre video on X highlighting that her office water cooler was empty—and that even when it’s filled, staff are required to pay a monthly fee to access it.

She said:

"Hi everyone, it’s Judge Jeanine. I’m at the water cooler in the United States Attorney’s Office in Washington, D.C. And you may recall that the United States gave something like $44 billion a year through USAID for things like dance classes in Wuhan, China, and Sesame Street in Iraq."

"But here in the United States, in the United States Attorney’s Office, where we prosecute crime on behalf of the victims, on behalf of the people who are targeted by criminals, the U.S. attorneys, as well as the staff, in order to get water, they have to join a water club and they have to pay."

"It's a dues-paying membership and today they asked for our patience. Why? Because we couldn't get water delivered today. Today there was no water delivered to the United States Attorney's Office and remember, it's only for those who pay $7 a month."

"Now ain't it grand to be a part of the government? I'm just thrilled to be here."

You can hear what she said in the video below.

Apparently, she meant it as an indication of how awful government is, even though, aren't you working for the government, Jeanine? And isn't Trump supposed to be running it? So, maybe take it up with him?

The criticism was swift.

Considering Pirro has previously worked for the government, she should know better.

Under federal guidelines, the government is generally prohibited from covering the cost of bottled water for employees unless the local tap water is deemed unsafe for consumption.

In the absence of such a health risk, the expense is considered personal and must be borne by the employee. If a public official nonetheless arranges for bottled water—citing issues such as plumbing or sewer problems at a government facility—and seeks reimbursement from public funds, they may be held personally liable for the expenditure.

A recent eight-page opinion from the Government Accountability Office outlines such a case, holding the certifying official financially responsible for improperly approved payments.

Wasn't Pirro for cutting government spending? Except when it impacts her, I guess...
