Jack Smith and Brian Driscoll on the Weaponization of Justice
About this episode
Jon Stewart discusses the weaponization of the Justice Department and FBI with guests Jack Smith and Brian Driscoll.
As the Trump administration continues to weaponize the Justice Department and FBI, Jon is joined by former Special Counsel Jack Smith and former Acting FBI Director Brian Driscoll to examine what happens when these institutions are turned against the principles they were designed to uphold. Together, they explore whether the DOJ and FBI are capable of holding power accountable, investigate how the assault on the rule of law has been used to punish and intimidate public servants, and consider what it would take to repair these institutions.
