He should just do a Kavanaugh and say "Obviously, court orders should be obeyed." 🤞

what does their oath say?

duane-the-first.bsky.social•18 days ago

I’m sure the current oath has something about undying fealty to “the king”

Disgusting. I also think it’s time we stopped talking about far right and far left and simply that we have those who are pro-democracy and those who are not.

"extreme case" = "Trump told me to do it"

Terrific.
A top lawyer who does not believe in the rule of law.
Honestly, how do these people sleep at night?

On a big pile of money. Like, a REALLY big pile

What good is money if you’re shunned everywhere and hated?

You can travel to beaches where no one knows who you are.

drumtroll.bsky.social•18 days ago

And will they be shunned? Or hired by all kinds of rich dickheads looking for that kind of lawyer?

There is no bottom that these sycophants won’t descend to in deference to Trump and in contradiction of the Constitution and the rule of law.

Disqualifying. The end. Turn in your law license.

betterkevin.bsky.social•18 days ago

This is literally the point of the constitution.

paulyd25.bsky.social•17 days ago

Every one of them should be disbarred.

alyan-75.bsky.social•18 days ago

JUST ANOTHER ASS KISSER, BREAKING THE LAWS!!

aliciadw75.bsky.social•18 days ago

So he's disqualified, right? Seems like a basic requirement - obey court order = obey the law.

yellowdog1955.bsky.social•17 days ago

Creepy af.

jmknyc.bsky.social•18 days ago

Why isn’t the ABA working to disbar these people?

Would some lawyer out there please tell me?

okaynova.bsky.social•18 days ago

I agree. It is a good question that I would honestly like to understand.

He needs to be sanctioned and license suspended until he takes remedial constitutional law 101 and passes the bar again.

oregongrown.bsky.social•18 days ago

Judging by his statement I would say he's going to be losing more often than not

These Fascists are lawless as Fascists are. Of course they will defy court orders! They already are!
