Trump DOJ BLINDSIDED with Ethics Complaint DISASTER

Can a Department of Justice lawyer lose their law license for misleading a federal judge? Resident Legal Diva Melba Pearson sits down with Lauren Stiller Rikleen, executive director of Lawyers Defending American Democracy (LDAD), to talk about the group’s work holding government attorneys to their oaths — including the ethics complaints LDAD files with state bars against senior DOJ lawyers accused of false or misleading statements to courts. They also cover LDAD’s amicus briefs, its new rapid-response Action Alerts, and the surprising answer as to who should police DOJ lawyers – state bars, or the DOJ itself – a fight now playing out in federal court.
