A prosecutor seeking the disbarment of the architect of a legal strategy aimed at keeping former President Donald Trump in power says he concocted a baseless theory and made false claims of fraud in an attempt to overturn the 2020 election. Disciplinary proceedings began Tuesday for John Eastman. They stem from his development of a dubious legal strategy aimed at having Vice President Mike Pence interfere with the certification of President Joe Biden's victory. Duncan Carling of the office of chief trial counsel said Eastman’s legal theory was “unsupported by historical precedent and law." Eastman’s attorney countered that his client never intended to steal the election.
The American Bar Association has no integrity. The people in trump’s orbit who are allowed to practice law (heavy emphasis on the practice part) in obvious bad faith is a joke. Obvious grounds for these people to be disbarred left and right and nothing meaningful happens.
It’s a sham org.
