YouTube Description
as posted by the channelLincoln Square Executive Editor Susan Demas welcomes Washington Post reporters and Pulitzer Prize winners Carol Leonnig and Aaron Davis — coauthors of the new book, Injustice: How Politics and Fear Vanquished America’s Justice Department — for a sobering look at how power has warped the nation’s most vital legal institution.
Leonnig and Davis trace how Trump’s attacks on prosecutors, agents, and even former allies destabilized the DOJ long before his second term’s open politicization. They describe a department hollowed out from within, where expertise was purged and fear replaced duty. What’s left is an institution stripped of muscle memory, where the principle of “without fear or favor” feels almost aspirational. Their reporting reminds us that the rule of law depends not on statutes alone but on people willing to defend them — and those ranks are thinning fast.
