Trump Lawyers Face Professional Repercussions for Electoral Interference

Disciplinary actions and potential disbarment loom for John Eastman and Jeffrey Clark as their legal challenges mount.

John Eastman, a lawyer for former President Donald Trump, has been transferred to "involuntary inactive status" by a California judge pending a review by the state's Supreme Court, signaling serious professional consequences for his actions.
Jeffrey Clark, a former Trump DOJ official, faces potential disbarment in Washington, D.C., after a disciplinary hearing where he invoked the Fifth Amendment and clashed with investigators.
Both lawyers are implicated in a Georgia RICO case, highlighting the legal challenges facing Trump's legal team.
The disciplinary actions against Eastman and Clark stem from their efforts to obstruct the lawful electoral process, with Eastman's actions deemed more egregious due to his direct representation of Trump and lack of remorse.
The cases against Eastman and Clark reflect broader repercussions for lawyers involved in undermining the 2020 election, with their professional licenses and reputations at stake.
