MEGYN KELLY (HOST): So, Lindsay Halligan is 36 years old, seems like a very nice lady, but in no world would normally be getting appointed as the US attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. Speaking of Ozempic-infested documents, that's what her resume is when it comes to the qualifications for this particular job. With all due respect, I'm sure she's a good lawyer. She worked for President Trump personally. That's how he knows her.
But I'm just going to say this person's elevation to this level of a post is kind of laughable. It never would happen under normal circumstances. I believe she was put there because she's loyal to Trump, and she's probably a decent lawyer. But she has no criminal law experience and zero experience as a prosecutor. Zero. So it's kind of shocking.
I think we know why she's there.
