Jessica Tarlov, the self-proclaimed voice of reason from the left on Fox News’ The Five, recently found herself in quite the pickle during a lively debate with Judge Jeanine Pirro. Tarlov, who seems to think that challenging the merits of Trump’s immigration policies is her calling, found out that Judge Jeanine is not one to back down, especially when it comes to defending the former president.
The drama unfolded when Tarlov took it upon herself to enlighten viewers with her take on the treatment of Haitian migrants during Trump’s presidency. With all the enthusiasm of a child on a sugar rush, she accused Trump and his supporters of peddling misinformation about the way these migrants were treated. It was almost as if she believed that her interpretation of events was more credible than the memories of millions of Americans who lived through that time—whether that was intentional or just wishful thinking remains to be seen.

Enter Judge Jeanine, the unwavering supporter of Trump, who took the opportunity to unleash a verbal barrage in defense of the man who is often at the center of political firestorms. With a flair for drama that would make a Hollywood director proud, Pirro asserted that the Democrat Party is the ultimate purveyor of lies and hate, particularly when it comes to anything related to Trump. She cleverly noted how the moment he was elected, Republicans became social pariahs in the eyes of Democrats, left to flounder in a sea of disdain and unfriendliness.
Pirro wasted no time in tossing Tarlov’s claims right back at her, painting a vivid picture of Democrats spying on Trump during his presidency under the guise of investigating Russian interference. Apparently, in their minds, the ends justify the means, particularly when the ends involve trying to discredit a sitting president. As she continued to lay down the law, Pirro also highlighted how the treatment of Trump during and after his presidency is a reflection of the contempt the left holds for anyone who dares to deviate from their narrative.
In a classic move typical of a conservative hero, Pirro asserted that Trump, far from being the villain he’s painted as, was actually one of the most generous souls around. Anyone who thinks he was selfish just isn’t paying attention. She denounced the idea that Trump could be seen as money-hungry or indifferent, arguing instead that if he were truly that way, he would have kept his fortune to himself instead of working on behalf of the American people. It’s bold assertions like these that can leave the opposition slightly scrambled, wondering how their narrative got hijacked so abruptly.
Ending the heated exchange with a flourish, Judge Jeanine declared her unwillingness to continue debating someone so committed to the left’s narrative. Her closing remark, a decisive claim to know “the man and the facts,” left little room for interpretation. One thing is clear—when it comes to defending her principles and the former president, Judge Jeanine does not just throw punches; she throws down the gauntlet.
