Group Seeks Disbarment of a Trump-Aligned Lawyer for a Key Jan. 6 Witness
WASHINGTON — In appearing before the Jan. 6 committee last year, Cassidy Hutchinson, the former White House aide who recounted President Donald J. Trump’s conduct in the lead-up to the attacks on the Capitol, shared how her original lawyer had tried to influence her testimony.
While represented by that lawyer, Stefan Passantino, Ms. Cassidy was less forthcoming to the committee. But after hiring a different lawyer, she provided more damaging details about Mr. Trump and said that Mr. Passantino had pressured her to remain loyal and protect the former president.
Now, several dozen prominent legal figures, including past presidents of the American Bar Association and the District of Columbia Bar, are seeking to revoke Mr. Passantino’s license to practice law. The move reflects intensifying scrutiny over whether Mr. Passantino, a former Trump White House ethics lawyer whose legal fees were covered by Mr. Trump’s political action committee, violated his own professional duty, along with a host of other ethical requirements, by putting the interests of a third party over that of his client.

Team Kraken has been sanctioned for their participation in the worst fraud ever perpetrated on the American people, the Big Lie. John Eastman is in legal jeopardy for supplying Capt. COVID with a pretense to steal the election. We all know what happened to M. Cohen. And there's this guy.......

Individual 1, having shown his disregard for the rule of law, should be a pariah among the legal community. Yet lawyers keep putting their livelihood on the line to help him. It's astounding.
