Roger Kimball has written an excellent article describing the treatment being accorded John Eastman by the State Bar of California as a result of Eastman’s actions in advising President Trump on possible legal recourse related to 2020 election voting irregularities alleged to have occurred in certain states. There are numerous links provided within Kimball’s article to explain facts and why the actions by the California State Bar are inappropriate. Eastman advised President Trump regarding actions open to him, which were few and related to requesting state authorities to review the results of their election processes in which irregularities were alleged and then re-certify the results. There are state rights and individual rights of the people that are being violated but unaddressed by authority. This period prior to the 2024 election is critical.
