Schmitt described the book as a response to what he saw as leftwing legal aggression, aiming to lay out the legal landscape and offer a playbook for conservatives to fight back in court.

And so this responsibility sort of fell to a relatively unknown group of people to kind of hold the line, which is why, you know, the last line of defense and how to beat the left in court is the title of the book. Because I felt like we were really holding the line for the country until reinforcements could come. And thankfully, they came with President Trump.

Yeah, no, I think it is a, and one of the reasons why I wanted to write the book was to, number one, lay out the landscape.

I referenced this in the book. When I was sort of coming of age, I think to give context for all the other crazy things we had to push back against, it was really important to go back to that moment of when this thing first happened and remember police tape around kids' playgrounds.

The book is The Last Line of Defense, How to Beat the Left in Court, which you have done.

Episode: Hour 3 - MO Sen. Eric Schmitt

It offered a behind-the-scenes look at legal battles the author was involved in during the Trump administration's downtime.

"

And we talk about it in the book, Last Line of Defense, and the censorship effort, Russiagate, all this nonsense, all the man hours been wrapped up in this political weaponization of the DOJ as opposed to fighting crime.

And one of the reasons why I wrote Last Line of Defense, which you can get on Amazon right now, is there is a tendency, guys, I think, to now that we're past the fever dream, the fever broke, I think, in November of 2024, this kind of crazy woke nonsense and the lawfare that was brought against President Trump to throw him in jail for the rest of his life.

And so while President Trump was out of power, we were able to kind of hold the line on a lot of this for the Calvary to arise.

And again, the story of the last line of defense, which you can get on Amazon now, is about standing up, pushing back.

The last line of defense, how to beat the left in court.
