Shannon Bream asked Judge Box-O-Wine to weigh in shortly after the verdicts were read, and Pirro made it clear she was none too happy with the jurors, the judge, and DA and our entire judicial system during her unhinged rant about the United States going "over a cliff." BREAM: But what that leaves is this White House, the Biden -Harris campaign, free now to call president Trump a convicted felon.
