Lawfare Daily: What French Politics Means for Europe and the United States

The Lawfare Podcast

On today's episode, Executive Editor Natalie Orpett spoke with Tara Varma, a fellow at the Brookings Institution, about the latest in French politics. On March 31, far-right leader Marine Le Pen was convicted of embezzlement and banned from politics, though polling showed her in the lead for the 2027 presidential elections.

Meanwhile, the push to build European defense capacity—and Trump’s new tariffs—are raising a lot of complicated questions.
