The bar had a record of repeatedly accommodating Kevin Clinesmith, a now convicted felon who pleaded guilty in August 2020 to falsifying a document that was the basis for a surveillance warrant against former Trump campaign official Carter Page.
After receiving a 12-months probation sentence, which he first agreed to, Clinesmith was expected to have his attorney designation stripped. However, the D.C. Bar did not pursue that course of action, despite long-standing precedent surrounding lawyers committing crimes in legal matters. […]
At the heart of Clinesmith’s crime was the fact that he doctored an email to state that Page was “not a source” for the CIA when the opposite was true. By omitting the crucial detail, that Page had lawfully collaborated with the CIA as an “operation contact” to provide the agency information for years, the FBI proceeded with electronically monitoring Page as a possible Russian spy.
This is how the DC Bar views the law … as a means to destroy political enemies. Ethics? Ha! Ethics are “situational”. Ethics are suspended when smearing one’s enemy is needed. By Any Means Necessary.
Western civilization will be destroyed if this is allowed to become the LOW Bar of the Law
What do you call ten million lawyers at the bottom of the sea?
A good start!
If they’re at the bottom of the sea even the fish wouldn’t touch them.
For the bottom feeders, it’s a professional courtesy.
Video of the actual raid.
Sort of.
