Twitter Mocks Judge Jeanine Pirro for Accidentally Saying FBI Should’ve Looked Into ‘Nicolas Cage’

So that happened….

While appearing on Hannity, Judge Jeanine Pirro was fired up about the FBI’s failure to stop the Florida shooter Nikolas Cruz when they were warned about him just last month. However, in the heat of the moment, she messed up his name. Bigly.

“You put on your instincts and your antennas and you say ‘Let me try and find out who Nicolas Cage is,” Pirro said.

Well, Twitter had loads of fun.

It’s not easy to figure out because he can take his face off and swap it with John Travolta just when you think you’re onto him https://t.co/1kfFxdIoVz

Everyone is laughing at this but I’d really like the FBI to get to the bottom of the whole Nicholas Cage thing https://t.co/5aJioE8haQ

To be fair, does anyone *really* know who the real Nicholas Cage is? https://t.co/17oRo2l5K9

It’s not the FBI’s job to tell you who the world’s greatest living thespian is. https://t.co/wTfHDb0pKh
