Ed Martin, the acting U.S. Attorney in Washington, D.C., represents the epitome of a Nightmare Prosecutor. With zero prosecutorial experience but maxed-out arrogance, Martin has been given control of a crucial office handling sensitive political matters. His history as a defender of January 6 defendants and a "Stop the Steal" proponent reveals a clear agenda to inflict damage on political opponents. His actions, including dismissing numerous January 6 cases and firing prosecutors, highlight a profound conflict of interest and signal potential harm to the Justice Department and broader democracy under the Trump administration.
Martin, who had represented January 6 defendants and was a vocal "Stop the Steal" proponent, came to the job with an agenda.
Putting Martin in charge of the D.C. U.S. Attorney's office is like giving a power tool to a 6-year-old in a crowded room.
He has no idea how to use it and no sense of the damage he can do, but he's going to run wild with it.
Martin quickly dismissed dozens of pending January 6 cases as he'd been instructed to do by Trump and the acting attorney general.
