Summary
Over 100 former presidents of the American Bar Association and other bar associations have issued an open letter condemning recent election lawsuits in swing states, calling them “unsubstantiated” and harmful to democracy.
The letter emphasizes that lawyers are duty-bound to present solid, fact-based cases and warns that baseless lawsuits erode public trust and misuse judicial resources.
The attorneys referenced disbarred lawyers like Rudy Giuliani as cautionary examples and urged legal professionals to uphold ethical standards. This initiative was led by the American Bar Association’s American Democracy Task Force.
They tried to disbar her, but in an appeals case, she managed to scrape by with extremely heavy sanctions.
Wtaf? How? She is a complete kook who will always be associated with “releAsiNg thE kRakEn!” and insane asylum caliber lies about a dead man (Hugo Chavez) controlling US elections.
Her retaining her license is proof positive America is off the rails.
In most jurisdictions, it’s nearly impossible to disbar a lawyer, unless they were complicit in the criminal activity of their client. That, alone, is pretty fucked up.
That’s why it took so goddamn long to disbar Rudy Giuliani.
