In Lawsuit Against MSNBC Anchor, Lin Wood Claims He Has Evidence Mike Pence Is a ‘Traitor’ and Will Provide It If Necessary

High-profile attorney L. Lin Wood says he has “evidence” that former vice president Mike Pence is “a traitor.” Wood also claims to have “information about the death of Seth Rich.”

The statements were made under oath in a Tuesday court filing submitted with the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York. Wood is currently fighting back against a defendant’s effort to have him booted from a high-profile defamation case.

The defendant is MSNBC anchor Joy Reid who was originally sued by Wood’s client Roslyn La Liberte for defamation in 2018.

In a recent filing, Reid’s attorney John Reichman moved to have Wood’s pro hac vice status revoked.

Wood is a member of the State Bar of Georgia and is not licensed to practice law in the State of New York. Attorneys in the United States frequently filing motions to—and are frequently allowed to—represent clients in different jurisdictions by filing for pro hac vice or “this occasion only” passes. Without cause to deny any such request, most courts sign off on those asks without much fanfare or attention.

Setting himself up for another fall.

"The statements were made under oath"

He apparently likes to perjure himself, as well.

I say this in all seriousness: I think the guy needs mental help.

Seth Rich killed Mike Pence and they used that face exchange surgical technology given to him by the Lizard people in order to make sure the vote was certified for Biden. The whole fly thing in the debate is the proof; it was clearly attracted to the fetal tissue required to implant the new face.
Also Benghazi! You know what else starts with Ben? Ben Carson. Carson City is the capitol of Nevada. You know what comes from Nevada? Harry Reid.

Clearly you have it correct. It doesn’t count unless we explain how the lizard people are involved.

The State Bar of Georgia had requested an evaluation. There are numerous bar complaints against Wood. He is persona non grata in the Atlanta law community.

It's time to call Mr Wood's bluff and see if he can walk it like he talks it. If given a big enough stage, he'll make an even bigger fool of himself.

as well as the usual "all famous Democrats". Doing this under oath really does look like a psychiatric problem; this will get his licensed revoked everywhere.

From the OP article:

Specifically, Wood claimed after the election that, months before the election, Chief Justice John Roberts called then-president Trump a “motherfucker” during an overheard phone call.

Good to know the Chief Justice does have some discernment.
