[Breitbart] A central premise in Breaking the Law, my just-released exposé on the weaponization of the legal system against President Trump and his supporters, is that an objective of lawfare is to buy our democracy.
The funders of the lawfare superstructure are waging a political battle against MAGA and on behalf of the institutional left. The “law” itself is disregarded. It’s all about politics. And they have learned that with relatively small amounts of cash — methodically allocated — they can remake America in their preferred image.
That is to say, as a society of leftism and chaos as opposed to conservatism and law and order.
The lawfare-istas have learned that seats in local elections are often available to the highest bidder. Meanwhile, they fund lawsuits against high-profile conservatives (namely Donald Trump).
Thanks to shadowy “dark money” nonprofits, it is impossible to know exactly who is funding every element of the lawfare apparatus, but here are some details from my research.
The names — details at the link: | Reid Hoffman (PayPal, LinkedIn) — E. Jean Carroll’s defamation suit against President Trump.
George Soros — Foundation to Promote Open Society, Indivisible, Norm Eisen’s Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW)
The Sandler Foundation — ProPublica
David Brock (Media Matters) — Project 65
Big Law — Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr; Hogan Lovells; Jenner & Block; Ropes & Gray; Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher; Perkins Coie; Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer; and Milbank
