On Friday, President Donald Trump called on U.S.
Attorney Jeanine Pirro to reconsider her decision to drop vandalism charges against former Olympian David Hearn, tied to damage at the National Mall's Reflecting Pool.
Trump Urges Jeanine Pirro to Revisit Ruling In a Truth Social post, Trump urged Pirro to "re-visit her hastily made decision," citing and thanking freelance photographer Andrew Leyden for photos he said confirmed "pure VANDALISM," alleging that the material was cut "right where the video tape showed, for 300 feet or more." He said witnesses saw people "on their knees with their hands in the water" at the site of the alleged "slashes," cut with a knife.
Trump Ties Case to Political Rivals Trump also claimed that Hearn is a "big player" in ActBlue, the Democratic fundraising platform, calling it a "disgraceful fundraising SCAM." He said Hearn is represented by attorney Norm Eisen, whom he called a "TRUMP DERANGED SLEAZEBAG," as well as the watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW).
Trump said he has been fighting Eisen in court for about a decade.
