Description

101 former federal and state judges. A 73-page complaint. The New York State Bar. And the Acting Attorney General of the United States in the crosshairs. Todd Blanche, Trump's former defense attorney, now Acting AG, just had a formal ethics complaint filed against him by Lawyers Defending American Democracy, Democracy Defenders Fund, and over 100 bipartisan former judges. And legal experts are saying this one is different. Resident Legal Diva Melba Pearson talks with Lauren Rikleen of Lawyers Defending American Democracy to break down exactly what's alleged, why this complaint has teeth, and what it would actually mean if the New York Bar takes action against a sitting Attorney General. The nation's top law enforcement officer is supposed to serve the Constitution, not one man.

This corrupt AG said bar associations have no power over federal lawyers, good luck with that Todd.

This is about time. You can not have this much contempt for the rule of law without consequences.
