An article in National Public Radio begins:

A California judge has formally recommended that attorney John Eastman lose his law license for his role in Donald Trump’s legal effort to remain in power after losing the 2020 presidential election.

Eastman, a prominent figure in conservative legal circles and a former clerk for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, played a key role in developing and backing a plan for states to send pro-Trump slates of electors to Congress and have then-Vice President Mike Pence unilaterally block or delay the certification of Joe Biden’s election victory.

“Eastman’s wrongdoing constitutes exceptionally serious ethical violations warranting severe professional discipline,” wrote California State Bar Court Judge Yvette Roland in her decision. “Eastman made multiple patently false and misleading statements in court filings, in public remarks heard by countless Americans and to others regarding the conduct of the 2020 presidential election and Vice President Pence’s authority to refuse to count or delay counting properly certified slates of electoral votes on January 6, 2021.”

Eastman is one of 19 co-defendants in the Fulton Country, GA RICO case that alleges a massive conspiracy to overturn the results of the 2020 president election in that jurisdiction.  Apparently, the judge who wrote the decision above sees no reason to delay the disbarment measure until after the results of that case.

Sounds fine.  Removing this criminal from public life asap seems like an excellent idea.
