据知情人士透露，埃德·马丁（Ed Martin）在未能获得华盛顿特区美国检察官职位的确认后，已在特朗普政府的司法部工作了九个多月，预计将在未来几周内离开该部门。
此前，马丁被描述为唐纳德·特朗普总统“最喜欢的美国检察官”，但消息人士称，他即将离职是特朗普另一位心腹司法部官员——副部长托德·布兰奇（Todd Blanche）采取行动的结果。
“特朗普总统任命埃德·马丁为赦免律师，他在该职位上继续出色工作。”司法部发言人周一告诉CNN。
来自密苏里州的共和党人马丁在2021年美国国会山骚乱事件后强化了自己的 MAGA（让美国再次伟大）credentials，成为特朗普2020年选举中选民欺诈指控以及1月6日骚乱者的坚定捍卫者——其中一些人他曾作为律师代表。
特朗普在2025年1月上任后不久任命马丁为华盛顿特区临时美国检察官。他立即着手推进特朗普的议程，包括降级那些处理与1月6日相关案件的高级检察官，并誓言保护政府效率部（DOGE）员工。
但他最终未能获得参议院足够的支持，特朗普于2025年5月撤回了对他的提名。
随后，特朗普为马丁在司法部安排了多个新职位，包括武器化工作组主任和赦免律师。
马丁曾呼吁起诉特朗普的政治对手，今年夏天，当他正在调查纽约州总检察长莱蒂西亚·詹姆斯（Letitia James）的行为时，却在她的布鲁克林住所外拍照。
知情人士称，一旦马丁被安置在司法部总部办公室，布兰奇——特朗普的前私人律师之一——就采取行动大幅限制马丁的权力。
尽管马丁被任命领导该部门的武器化工作组，但消息人士告诉CNN，他被副部长“分层管理”，实际上并未真正负责这项工作。
作为副部长，布兰奇负责司法部的日常运营。他此前曾担任特朗普的私人律师。在司法部长帕姆·邦迪（Pam Bondi）接连出现失误后，他承担了更多面向公众的角色。上周，布兰奇独自主持了关于爱泼斯坦文件发布的新闻发布会。
“事实是，埃德有一切机会领导这个小组并完成其使命，但他什么都没做。”一位熟悉武器化工作组工作的人士表示，“此后，司法部的其他人员取得了重大进展，正在完成本应在埃德领导下完成的工作。”
CNN周一报道称，武器化工作组预计将开始每天开会，以处理那些对总统而言优先事项的问题。目前尚不清楚马丁是否被邀请参加该会议。
据知情人士透露，马丁在赦免律师职位上似乎拥有更多权力。他一直积极参与审查赦免申请，但在特朗普政府以及其他政府中，赦免的最终决定主要由白宫做出。
马丁的办公室目前位于赦免办公室内。目前尚不清楚马丁离开司法部后将前往何处，但一位知情人士称，他上周大部分时间都在白宫。

Ed Martin: Trump’s one-time weaponization chief is expected to depart Justice Department in coming weeks
Published Feb 2, 2026, 2:15 PM ET / Updated Feb 2, 2026, 4:11 PM ET / CNN
Ed Martin, who has been working inside the Trump Justice Department for over nine months after failing to secure a confirmation as US Attorney in Washington, DC, is expected to leave the department in the coming weeks, according to a source familiar with his plans.
Martin had been previously described as President Donald “Trump’s favorite US Attorney,” but sources say his imminent departure is the result of moves made by another one of Trump’s favorite Justice officials — Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.
“President Trump appointed Ed Martin as Pardon Attorney and Ed continues to a great job in that role,” a Justice Department spokesperson told CNN Monday.
Martin, a Missouri Republican, burnished his MAGA credentials following the 2021 US Capitol attack, becoming a vocal defender of Trump’s voter fraud claims in the 2020 election and of January 6 rioters — some of whom he represented as an attorney.
Trump appointed Martin to serve at the interim US attorney for Washington, DC, shortly after taking office in January 2025. Martin immediately started working on Trump’s agenda, including demoting senior prosecutors who worked on cases related to January 6 and vowing to protect employees of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
He ultimately failed to receive enough support from the Senate and Trump pulled his nomination for the position in May 2025.
Trump then put Martin in serval new positions within the Justice Department, including the director of the Working Weaponization Group and pardon attorney.
Martin urged for the prosecution of Trump’s political adversaries and, this summer, posed for photos outside the Brooklyn home of New York Attorney General Letitia James while he was also conducting investigations into her conduct.
Sources familiar with the situation say that once Martin was installed in his office inside Justice Department headquarters in Washington, Blanche – one of Trump’s former personal lawyers – made moves to significantly limit Martin’s ability to wield power.
Even though he was tapped to the lead the Department’s Weaponization Working Group, a source tells CNN Martin was “layered” by the deputy attorney general and was not really in charge of that effort.
As deputy attorney general, Blanche is in charge of the day-to-day operations of the agency. He previously served as Trump’s personal attorney. He has taken on a more public-facing role as Attorney General Pam Bondi faced a series of missteps. Last week, Blanche led the press conference alone on the release of Epstein documents.
“The fact is that Ed was given all opportunity to lead this group and deliver on its mission, but he did nothing,” a person familiar with the efforts of the Weaponization Working Group said. “Others across the Department have since been making great progress and doing the work that should have been happening under Ed’s leadership.”
CNN reported Monday that the Weaponization Working Group was expected to begin meeting every day to deliver on those issues that are a priority for the president. It was unclear if Martin was even invited to that meeting.
Martin appears to have more power in his role as pardon attorney, according to sources familiar. He has been actively involved in reviewing clemency applications, but the final decision on pardons in the Trump Administration, as in other administrations, are largely made inside the White House.
Martin’s office is currently located inside the pardon office. It is unclear where Martin is headed after he departs the Justice Department, but a source familiar with his plan says he spent most of last week at the White House.
