John Lauro: How the Justice System Is Being Weaponized and Why Prosecutorial Immunity Must End

In this speech, attorney John Lauro, who represented President Donald Trump in the January 6 case, delivers a warning about the growing weaponization of the U.S. justice system. Lauro discusses prosecutorial overreach, lack of accountability for prosecutors and law enforcement, and the misuse of broad criminal statutes to target political and ideological opponents.

Drawing from his decades of experience as both a federal prosecutor and a criminal defense lawyer, Lauro calls for structural reform, including ending immunity for prosecutors, reforming vague statutes, and appointing judges who uphold due process and the Constitution. He also highlights cases he believes exemplify politically motivated prosecutions and stresses the need for unity to protect the rule of law.

This is a candid and urgent look at what Lauro sees as systemic failures that threaten constitutional rights and due process in America.
