JEANINE PIRRO (CO-HOST): But the problem here is you have just energized the sleeping giant across America. That you know what, there are DAs in this country, in all 50 states, who say "I have the power to indict. I have a grand jury. Let's hit it." Especially against a president who protected his own son, who finally is coming up for a crime that he allegedly committed -- I'll say that as a professional -- for trial on June 3rd, but where his own Department of Justice prevented him from even having to answer for his lack of paying taxes in some very heavy income years. And now America is saying, you know what, now we see them juxtaposed against each other and it's not fair.

And we are a country that was born of revolution. Revolution is in our DNA. We are fighters. And I hope it's only at the ballot box. Don't get me wrong. But I am -- my insides are so angry because this was not a case that should've been brought.
