John Eastman Faces Potential Disbarment Over 2020 Election Role

The California Supreme Court is set to decide on the disbarment of John Eastman, amid debates over legal ethics and political bias.

  • John Eastman, a key figure in Trump's attempt to overturn the 2020 election, faces disbarment in California for ethical violations.
  • Eastman's law license is currently on 'involuntary inactive' status, with the California Supreme Court to make the final decision.
  • Eastman argues the case against him is based on disagreements over the 2020 election and constitutional interpretations.
  • Critics argue Eastman's prosecution is part of a broader attack on lawyers defending unpopular or high-profile Republican clients.
  • Supporters of Eastman liken his defense of Trump to historical examples of legal representation for unpopular figures.
