Attorney withdraws from election challenge lawsuit, saying Trump used him to 'perpetrate a crime'

[PGR88]

There a huge amount of FEAR among deep-state rats, crony-capitalists, and people who depend on the deep state for their living.

"You never accuse publicly your own client of illegality if there's any way to avoid it."

You're never supposed to tape your clients' phone calls either, but...

[reasonisfaith]

It appears very likely Trump will clean out the corrupt judges and prosecutors during his second term in office, which starts in a couple weeks.

This idiot will never be forgiven for ever helping Trump by the libtards. And now he will be considered a traitor by conservatives.

I hope he likes his future life as an ambulance chaser.

“Marcus wrote that “the client has used the lawyer’s services to perpetrate a crime . . .”

Is the lawyer admitting that he (the lawyer) was involved in a crime?

What did the lawyer know and when did he know it?

This lawyer needs to immediately surrender his law license until this is all cleared up.

What are you smoking? Trump will be gone by Monday.

[dfwgator]

He got the horse’s head in his bed with a note saying either you denounce Trump, or consider yourself disbarred.

What’s the crime?

I’m sure it is challenging Joe Biden’s right to claim the “Office of the President-Elect”.

Lieyahsers are not hores?

The crime was against President Trump and his 75 - 80 million voters, who were disenfranchised.

This “attorney” is scum.

[The Pack Knight]

Agreed. That was grossly unprofessional of him. Especially when it is almost certainly unnecessary because I doubt Trump is opposing the withdrawal. His original, big firm lawyers in PA certainly didn’t do this when they withdrew.

Even where a judge has a local rule or procedure requiring specific grounds in a motion to withdraw, I ignore that and offer to provide the reason in camera.

‘..Satan or China is at work...”

Yes.

[KittyKares]

I guess the president is finding out the hard way who his real friends are.

In fantasy land? Sure

Even if he won re-election, they were going to kill him

It was all planned out

[reasonisfaith]

What if I’m not smoking anything?

[OldGoatCPO]

AS I read this it appears the Lawyer was no longer actively engaged in a lawsuit. The one he was involved with was dismissed and not pursued further in November. I am guessing the so called crime was the mess at the Capital yesterday. If that is the case this man is an idiot.

[gcparent]

What friends?

[reasonisfaith]

Anyone trying that will die a horrible death.

[dfwgator]

As they say, “If you want a friend in Washington, get a dog.”

[wiseprince]

Back story, he doesn’t want to move from the state and he’s being threatened if he doesn’t do exactly this. This is what a country looks like when it’s no longer free. Storming the capitol wasn’t enough if people are being honest
