John Eastman, former law professor and dean, threatened with disbarment in California. His “ethical violation”? He advised Trump on contesting the 2020 election after the DOJ said there was no fraud.This is similar to disbarring a criminal defense lawyer because he claimed his client was innocent after the prosecutor said he was guilty.
Defend murderers, rapists, child molesters? No problem. But advise Trump? You’re gone. Add this to the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago seizing confidential attorney-client communications. The result: Constitutional guarantee of representation by counsel is out the window. Now are you worried?
