Lawfare 2025 continues, but new documentary film reveals persecution of Trump attorney John Eastman

Recall that Trump attorney John Eastman has faced an intense legal battle simply for representing his client.

Yesterday, we noted that Charlie Kirk had said on his radio show that when he needed representation before being questioned about January 6 --- though he wasn’t even involved in that --- he had to call ten law firms before he found one that didn’t turn him down flat.

This was, in part, because the Democrats and the media --- apologies for the redundancy --- were already doing such a spectacular job of painting the riot on January 6, 2021, as an “insurrection,” “domestic terrorism” and “a threat to our democracy.” Who wants to defend someone alleged to be part of an insurrection against the United States? (Note: However, it should be said that even that person deserves representation in court.) But beyond this, it turns out there are other reasons why attorneys might not want to have anything to do with a Trump supporter.

Recall that Trump attorney John Eastman has faced an intense legal battle simply for representing his client. Eastman agreed with Trump that then-Vice President Mike Pence, during the certification process on January 6, 2021, had the power to reject electoral votes, and he crafted a legal argument to that effect. Later, when a Fulton County, Georgia, grand jury handed down indictments in their “RICO” case, Eastman was among those charged, along with Trump. Eastman was also indicted in Arizona.
