Here’s the guest lineup for Jeanine Pirro’s first show back after her bigoted anti-Muslim comments. It is fascinating that there are no White House or congressional guests.
No Pirro apology or reference to her disappearance the last two weeks at the top of the show.
Pirro calling for federal investigations into McCabe, Strzok, Lynch, and Comey, suggesting they were involved in a "coup" that Obama might have been behind.
"This should never happen again, and I can guarantee you it will happen again, unless we make an example of the traitorous, treasonous group that accused Trump of being an agent of the Russian government."
Rudy Giuliani, the president's lawyer, opens his interview with Jeanine Pirro saying, "It's an honor to be here with you. You know what I think of you, and your entire career. You're a crusader for justice."
Giuliani calls for a Justice Department investigation into "who tried to perpetrate a fraud against the American people."
Giuliani -- the president's lawyer -- says that Christopher Steele, Glenn Simpson "should all be in jail."
Giuliani says McCabe "should be in jail for perjury," and Bruce Orr should be in jail too.
Giuliani closes the interview saying "Jeanine, I am so glad you're back, we need at this time that our country is in trouble, we need your common sense voice. We need you."
The thing about Jeanine Pirro's show is that it's really, really bad. Sorry, I can't force myself to livetweet interviews with Dan Bongino or Corey Lewandowski, they just shout talking points.
Folks, Bernie Kerik has some thoughts.
Pirro closes: "Finally, I want to thank each of you for joining me tonight. I love my loyal Fox News Channel viewers, and I appreciate all of you for joining me."

No apology, obviously.
Takeaways from Pirro's first show back:

1) No apology.
2) Same dangerous "coup" language and calls for jailing Trump's investigators.
3) No congressional or WH guests shows some hesitance there for now.
4) But Giuliani interview is there to show she still has Trump's support.
5. Any change in behavior is going to be forced by advertisers, it won't be something Pirro does on her own or Fox forces her to do. mediamatters.org/research/2019/…
