The Eastman Dilemma: Lawfare or Justice
John Eastman, the Claremont Institute scholar and conservative firebrand who stood by President Trump’s side all throughout some of the darkest days in the aftermath of the 2020 presidential election when the republic was on the line, will have his story told for the first time on the silver screen come the new year. The documentary, titled The Eastman Dilemma: Lawfare or Justice, is slated for a fitting January 6th, 2025, release date, the fourth anniversary of the January 6th demonstration (but will premiere at Mar-a-Lago in a special event two days earlier).
The film marks the culmination of a years-long ordeal that has seen Eastman, once universally revered as a foremost authority in constitutional construction and history, targeted by one of the most ruthless and sustained lawfare campaigns against any attorney in American history. Eastman, alongside former US Assistant Attorney General Jeff Clark and Mayor Rudy Giuliani, was systematically maligned, censured, and even disbarred for simply arising to a timeless call of both client and their profession by providing legal representation.
Eastman’s story is harrowing - and forebodes much darker times to come if we do not provide a radical course correction to the current state of affairs...
... the system wanted to kowtow all future lawyers into submission - from not only never again representing Donald Trump...
Eastman’s was a standout case - especially for someone of his notoriety. Despite stellar credentials, he was forcibly exiled from the profession...
What initially got Eastman in trouble was confusion over a fairly straightforward constitutional issue: namely, whether the President has the ability to request that his Vice President return fraudulent or legally doubtful slates of electors to their respective states for further inquiries.
That was it. This was not, as the media unwisely framed, the President beseeching his number two to “overturn” a presidential election...
The next Trump administration would be blessed to have not just one or two but hundreds of diligent lawyers in the mold of John Eastman, Jeff Clark, Rudy Giuliani, and a handful of others, who stood by the President and remained loyal through trial and tribulation...
The Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC) is a politically conservative alternative to AARP, the left-wing retirement organization.
