Center outlets (The Hill, BBC, France 24) report the DOJ's dismissal and Pirro's finding of 'botched installation' as a factual reversal, with follow-up coverage tracking Trump's public criticism of Pirro, Burgum's continued vandalism claims, and speculation about Pirro's job security, framed largely as an accountability/political-fallout story.

Kennedy's defense of Pirro's decision.
