    This country needs true conservatives who question the size and scope of government and the relationship between government power and individual liberties. What the current “Conservative” movement is isn’t actually conservative. It’s a personality cult that is obsessed with a narrow view of culture and grievance.

    So-called lawyers for Trump face professional reckonings

    [​IMG]

    John Eastman, a conservative law professor, and Jeffrey Clark, the former Trump Justice Department official whom Trump nearly installed as attorney general, face major developments in their attorney discipline cases in the jurisdictions where they are barred.

    The developments highlight how, even years after the 2020 election, authorities that regulate the attorneys are still looking closely at the actions of attorneys for Trump, several of whom could lose their law licenses.

    In addition to Eastman and Clark, three other lawyers for Trump in 2020 — Sidney Powell, Kenneth Chesebro and Jenna Ellis —have pleaded guilty to criminal charges in Georgia that could risk their law licenses.

    Trump's former lawyer Jenna Ellis's law license in CO is being suspended for her efforts to overturn the election.

    Former Trump attorney has Colorado law license suspended for attempting to overturn 2020 election results

    Jenna Ellis, an ex-attorney for former President Trump, has agreed to have her law license suspended for three years in Colorado for her role in attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results.

    A presiding disciplinary judge approved the settlement between Ellis and Colorado’s Attorney Counsel on Tuesday.

    Ellis pleaded guilty in October to one count of aiding and abetting false statements and writings. She reached a plea agreement with prosecutors in the Georgia 2020 election interference case, in which Trump and 17 others were indicted for engaging in an unlawful conspiracy to keep the former president in power.

    She was first censured by Colorado’s Office of Attorney Regulation Counsel in March 2023 after she made “misrepresentations on national television and on Twitter regarding the 2020 presidential election.”

    Ellis’s suspension will take effect on July 2 and last three years.

    Two watchdog groups were attempting to have her disbarred, but the settlement said that while it’s the “presumptive sanction” for her misconduct, her “criminal culpability” was due to her actions as an “accessory,” not a principal.

    “The evidence surrounding her plea reflects that she aided and abetted the false statements at issue through her presence at the Georgia Senate Subcommittee meeting but did not otherwise contribute to drafting or preparing the false statements,” the settlement said.

    “She has also expressed remorse and has recognized the harm caused by her misconduct … and has taken significant, concrete steps to mitigate the harm her misconduct has caused,” the settlement said, noting that a three-year suspension would be an “appropriate sanction.”

    Ellis must file a petition if she wants to reinstate her Colorado law license.

    In a letter dated May 22, Ellis said she wanted to express her “deep remorse” and acknowledge the harm her misconduct caused.

    “I do not do this as a political calculation, out of anger toward my former client, or for any other ways some may try to undermine or discredit my statement here, which is simply this: I am choosing to take responsibility for my actions and my association with the harm caused to this nation by the post-election activities of 2020 on behalf of then-President Donald Trump,” she wrote. “I was wrong to be involved.”

    She said she would gratefully accept the suspension as a consequence and encouraged others who still think the 2020 election was stolen to “consider changing their position.”

    “I will continue to stand up for the truth, even when it requires admitting I was wrong,” Ellis concluded.

    Trump does leave a whole lot of diehard MAGA bodies in his wake.

    The maga case was based on 200 mules film, which was clearly disinformation but now even the films publisher is disavowing it (perhaps out of fear of legal action, perhaps for concern about integrity)...

    Well, shoot... one of those was done by a sitting supreme court justice in support of an political insurrection intending to overturn our government. The other was by a black football player protesting the treatment of black people in the country. You can guess which one was punished...

    Will history repeat itself with these Texas Scumbags?

    Here are the Texans who voted to object to certifying the election results on Jan. 6, 2020.

    Of course, let's not forget the Trump boot licker AG Ken Paxton, who tried his hardest to overturn the 2020 Election.
