The Fox News show Justice With Judge Jeanine was replaced on Saturday night with a rerun of the documentary Scandalous, leaving many of the judge’s fans wondering if she’s ever coming back.
According to CNN the show has been suspended, and the decision is being kept quiet by Fox News, who said “we are not commenting on internal scheduling matters.”
About a week ago the judge made a comment questioning Rep. Ilhan Omar’s (D-Minn.) patriotism and devotion to this country. On her show the judge spoke about Omar wearing a hijab (the traditional Islamic head-covering) suggesting that Omar’s faith as a Muslim is the reason she has anti-Israel views.
This is what she said:
President Trump was right when he said the democrat party is now the anti-Israel party. Don’t forget Nancy, history has proven over and over when you appease to anti-Semitic sentiment, the worst happens. #OpeningStatement pic.twitter.com/vrnzhcu95o

In a very rare and unusual move, her comments united both liberals and conservatives in condemning the judge’s remarks about Rep. Omar, saying they were “anti-Semitic.”
Fox News quickly came out with a statement along with the former judge’s response:

While followers wait to see what Fox News will do, fans of Judge Jeanine Pirro – like President Trump – are demanding they bring her back on the air.
This is what President Trump says to Fox News:
Bring back @JudgeJeanine Pirro. The Radical Left Democrats, working closely with their beloved partner, the Fake News Media, is using every trick in the book to SILENCE a majority of our Country. They have all out campaigns against @FoxNews hosts who are doing too well. Fox …..

….to the people that got you there. Keep fighting for Tucker, and fight hard for @JudgeJeanine. Your competitors are jealous – they all want what you’ve got – NUMBER ONE. Don’t hand it to them on a silver platter. They can’t beat you, you can only beat yourselves!

Should Judge Jeanine Pirro’s show be canceled? Do you think the judge’s remarks about Rep. Omar were anti-Semitic?
