Trump's 'Big Lie' Election Lawyers Now Making A Killing As 'Go-To Attorneys For MAGA Extremists'

They've yet to face discipline, but one group is trying to get them all disbarred.

These lawyers have to be stopped from practicing law. It’s that simple. They disregarded their oath, they told lies to the court and they spread the ‘Big Lie.’

— David Fink, an attorney who works with The 65 Project, a bipartisan group that has an end goal of disbarring the 100 lawyers who worked on Trump’s post-election lawsuits, offering comment on the cause to Politico. Fink is attempting to get lawyers in Michigan disbarred, including Juli Haller, who filed a case alongside Sidney Powell that was tossed after a judge referred to it as a “historic and profound abuse of the judicial process.” Haller, and others like her, have become, per Politico, “go-to attorney[s] for MAGA extremists.” Haller currently represents alleged members of the Oath Keepers, a far-right vigilante group.

failed lawyers in the country to protect their rights. I wouldn't let most of Trump's lawyers represent me in a jaywalking case.
