The Lawfare Crisis: A Conversation with Ed Martin

In this exclusive interview, U.S. Pardon Attorney Ed Martin joins the Counterlawfare Institute to discuss the rise of lawfare and the growing weaponization of legal institutions for political ends. The conversation explores how prosecutorial power, government institutions, and the justice system can be used to achieve political objectives, the consequences for the rule of law, and what reforms may be necessary to restore public confidence in equal justice under the law. The Counterlawfare Institute documents lawfare, preserves the historical record, educates the public, supports its victims, and develops the intellectual framework needed to confront and defeat the weaponization of law.
