DISBAR THE KRAKEN: Trump Affiliated Lawyers Have Been Sanctioned For ‘Frivolous’ Filings

Ever since Donald Trump was decisively defeated in the 2020 presidential election by Joe Biden, he has been obsessed with propagating the “Big Lie” that the election was “rigged” and “stolen” from him. It’s a dangerous and flagrant falsehood that undermines the people’s faith in American democracy and resulted in the deadly January 6th insurrection in Washington, D.C.

Donald Trump, Prison

On Wednesday there were finally some consequences for a few of Trump’s co-conspirators. Politico is reporting that several of the attorneys that worked on Trump’s behalf to disseminate lies about election fraud were dealt a legal blow:

“A federal judge on Wednesday imposed sanctions on Sidney Powell, Lin Wood and seven other pro-Trump lawyers in a strongly worded denouncement of what the court called a frivolous election fraud lawsuit.

“U.S. District Court Judge Linda Parker found that Powell and her colleagues involved in the case, which sought to make former President Donald Trump Michigan’s official 2020 presidential pick, ‘filed this lawsuit in bad faith and for improper purpose.'”

The judge went on to reprimand the lawyers for presenting “pleadings that were not ‘warranted by existing law or by a nonfrivolous argument for extending, modifying, or reversing existing law or establishing new law.’” She said that they “contained factual contentions lacking evidentiary support.”

But that’s not all. The judge further noted that “the deficiencies in the pleadings [claim violations of election law} without a thorough understanding of what the law requires, and the number of failed election-challenge lawsuits that Plaintiffs’ attorneys have filed.”

The judge’s opinion concluded by recommending “that the bar associations for each respective attorney investigate them for potential suspension or disbarment, noting that their involvement in the litigation showed they were unfit to practice law.”

This is just the latest humiliating episode in the long-running melodrama of Trump’s legal tribulations. His personal attorney, Michael Cohen, pleaded guilty for his role on the payoff to Trump’s mistress, adult film star Stormy Daniels, and for lying to the Senate. Then Rudy Giuliani had his license suspended in both New York and Washington, D.C. Trump’s representatives lost more than sixty court cases due to failing to provide a shred of evidence supporting their election fraud allegations.

Now these clowns have been sanctioned and face possible disbarment. And yet, somehow Trump will go on whining about the “Crime of the Century” until his turn to be held accountable comes up. He is presently being investigated in New York, Washington, and Georgia, for criminal election tampering, intimidation, and abuse of power. And the rulings against this batch of his legal team will only serve to darken his future prospects for avoiding the consequences of his crimes.

  1. And about bloody time! How does TrumpetBum manage to get these inept idiots? Are they the cheapest because they’re the worst? Or is it a case of like attracts like? ???

  2. I don’t think Trump will ever be held accountable for anything. I hope I’m wrong bc in a world with just a little justice, he would spend the rest of his life in prison! That’s where he belongs. That’s where he should be.

  3. “…will only serve to darken his future prospects for avoiding the consequences of his crimes.”

    We can only hope! Moving at the rate barnacles grow shells, chances are that Ttump will die of natural causes before he ever actually faces consequences for being the lying-est shmuck ever to foul the WH & only U.S. prez to attempt a violent overturning of valid election results, to keep himself in Office.

    • With so many daggers out for his ribs – metaphorically speaking – I don’t think he’ll poop off of natural causes. We’re running a book in our little Australian mountain village; front contender for doing him in by means of poisoned Lay’s Chips is Melania.

      • Or she could season the hamberders….

        • Keep having these very good ideas… ?

  4. Just a slap on the wrist. They need to face real penalties with financial consequences. Too many of these crooks have gotten off with no more than a tongue-lashing (cf. Abbott, Ken).

    • Well they will have to pay legal fees. And if they are suspended or disbarred that will hurt. And that’s the most the court can do.

  5. This ***hole won’t stop nail his rally’s and speeches stop generating money to support his legal fees
