U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro on Sunday appeared to abandon a plan to appeal an adverse ruling in her attempts to criminally investigate Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.
Pirro has long said she planned to ask a higher court to review recent rulings by Chief Judge James Boasberg of the District of Columbia quashing her subpoenas to the Fed.

“Boasberg ruled against Pirro because her office presented no specific evidence“
Wrong, he ruled against Pirro because he is a rat tool and a traitor.
If you can’t present specific evidence of a crime and connect that “evidence” to the investigation target, you simply haven’t done your job properly.
A grand jury should never be a surprise, and should never be used to “throw it all against the wall and see what sticks.” That’s both illegal and unethical.
He's the true "Teflon Don".
Eeyore.
Quid Pro Quo horse trading.
Vacating the case against Powell ended hard stops in the Senate.
