The watchdog groups contend the actions Ellis admitted to — namely making false statements to foster suspicion of President Joe Biden’s victory — violated her oath as an attorney to uphold the law.
They also argue Ellis’ actions since pleading guilty prove she’s not yet accepted responsibility.
“At her allocution in Georgia, she attempted to cast her criminal conduct as a mere failure to conduct due diligence,” the groups write.
“These statements elide her more than a decade of experience as a barred attorney and fall far short of demonstrating the type of contrition that would warrant lesser discipline.”
I just don’t get how there’s a guy who we know incited an auto coup attempt is on trial for like the 100th felony, his lawyer is being threatened to be disbarred, his former lawyer is fuckin Giuliani, who is a whole laundry list of hilarious trouble… And this dude is not only able to run for president, but he’s like, doing ok in the race.
What the fuck.
It’s almost as if the american politics system is a fucking shitshow
