The significance here is not only the individual consequence. It is that a state supreme court turned years of election related misconduct findings into a final professional penalty.

This proves to be correct, every time, everything he touches dies ;
“ John Eastman, a former attorney for President Donald Trump who helped engineer a last-ditch strategy to overturn the 2020 presidential election results, was disbarred in California on Wednesday over his efforts more than five years ago.”

The good news: "#JohnEastman, the attorney who masterminded the legal strategy behind President Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election, has been officially #disbarred in #California."
https://www.mediaite.com/crime/attorney-who-masterminded-trumps-attempt-to-overturn-election-disbarred/The bad news: Disbarment and disciplinary proceedings are currently governed by state law. But the Trump DOJ is considering a rule that would require state bar associations to suspend their reviews of DOJ lawyers until the DOJ does its own reviews.

Several #states also investigated the #FakeElectors conspiracy, with some filing charges although #criminal charges in at least one state were dismissed.
Trump's pardons include 77 people but could include others not named, the document said. Presidential #pardons only apply to federal charges, & do not apply to state cases.
The list includes #ChristinaBobb, #JohnEastman, #BorisEpshteyn, among others. The pardon does not apply to #Trump, acc/to the document [why would it? He’s above the #law].

Among those who were indicted were White House chief of staff #MarkMeadows, attorneys #RudyGiuliani, #JohnEastman & #ChristinaBobb, top campaign adviser #BorisEpshteyn & former campaign aide #MikeRoman. The grand jury accused them of unsuccessfully trying to award the state’s electoral votes to #Trump instead of #Biden even though Biden won the popular vote there.

Now that #KariLake has been appointed to run #VoiceOfAmerica it's worth reading this article about what happened to that organization under the "leadership" of #MichaelPack (a colleague of #JohnEastman at #ClaremontInstitute) during the last Trump administration.

3 counts excised from #Trumptarded #ElectionInterference case in #FultonCounty #Georgia against disgraced #MAGA lawyer laureate #JohnEastman formerly of #ChapmanUniversity.
Counts 14, 15 and 27 of the indictment to engage in “an overt act in furtherance of the conspiracy” would “interfere with the District Court’s ability” to apply justice to potentially falsified documents by “imposing a state sanction when a federal sanction is already in place.”
Six other counts were previously excised, leaving only 6 #felony charges pending against Eastman, including a #RICO charge, conspiracy to commit #forgery, two counts for conspiring to provide false statements, solicitation of violation of oath by public officer, and #conspiring to impersonate a public officer etc.

J.D.Vance himself has admitted he is “plugged into a lot of weird, right-wing subcultures” and one of his faves is the obscure #ClaremontInstitute .
Spawned in Southern California out of the teachings of an academia entrenched #BarryGoldwater speech writer named #HenryJaffa , since his death, it has found new life embracing 21st century figures like #CharlieKirk , #RonDeSantis , #JohnEastman and actively seeks out extremist #RWNJ sheriffs for intensive "fellowships".
What #Politico terms "the intellectual nerve center of the Trumpist right " it's #thinktank was one of seven main influences recently highlighted as shaping recent #Catholic convert #JDVance and his #weird worldviews. Vance has eagerly embraced a host of #FarRight milieu members including members of secret societies, maverick publishers, and acolytes of advocates to "prioritize re-Christianizing America".
#Claremont Institute has rebranded itself from its right wing roots in #academia to a more fearsome forefront of racially divisive anti-Democratic alt right think tanks and what one prominent former #GOP campaign manager called the "West Point of American fascism".
Nowadays Claremont seeks out #socialmedia savvy and influential leaders, such as Vance, DeSantis & Josh Hawley who are white and wryly and openly contemptuous of the left, most minorities and even #democracy itself. Eagerly embracing divisions and propelling #MAGA Xtian supremacist ideologies, the place that brought you #Pizzagate is far from honest #AbeLincoln or other flag bearers of Claremont's #conservatism hailed at the orgs founding.
Nowadays, largely estranged from the CA based institution it was founded at, the founder of the Claremont Institute's archives are actually held at Michigan's rural #HillsdaleCollege—a private, #conservative #ChristianAcademy headed by one of the institute’s 70's era original members.

While #JohnEastman’s views on the #environment are #extreme,…they aren’t exactly rare. He epitomizes the type of #AntiRegulatory, #FederalistSociety bred #legal mind you can expect to see elevated by #Trump. “Eastman has been part of a project to take down #FederalRegulation for a long time,” Andy Mergen, a clinical prof of #EnvironmentalLaw at Harvard said, “which is coming to fruition w/these #ChevronDeference cases.” w/the most #conservative makeup in decades, #SCOTUS is poised to deliver.
-
Applications of popular laws like the #CleanWater Act & #Endangered Species Act, he’s repeatedly argued, overstep the #Constitution & the *intentions* of the country’s framers, who would have largely left #environmental #regulation to the states. As #JohnEastman put it in a #SCOTUS amicus brief last July, unchecked #FederalAgencies pose a “threat” to the Constitution’s design of #SeparationOfPowers. In that brief, he urged the court to “end the #Chevron experiment.”

#JohnEastman is believed to be an unindicted co-conspirator in #Trump’s fed #indictment; he is also facing #disbarment in Cali…
before…Trump, Eastman, 64, was the sort of #conservative #legal figure whose name one might forget, a #law prof w/a cushy job & a chairmanship at a practice group of the… #FederalistSociety.…His writings, speeches, & media appearances…reveal a man…constantly questioning #federal #authority & the administrative state.…he saw fed #EnvironmentalLaws especially problematic. -
Many #conservatives have sought to kill the #legal doctrine for over a decade. And within the chorus, one has sung w/notable passion: #JohnEastman.
The same John Eastman who, on #Jan6, 2021, stood at a podium in DC beside fellow #Trump lawyer #RudyGiuliani & bellowed to an angry crowd that then–VP #MikePence ought to halt the #PeacefulTransferOfPower.…t was also Eastman…who drafted the #CoupMemos, which incl a multistep plan for Pence to hand the #election to Trump….

CW: USPol #Jan6 John Eastman has his law licence suspended on the road to disbarment. Guilty of ‘moral turpitude’.
Moral turpitude is generally understood in American law to encompass acts 'of baseness, vileness, or depravity in the private and social duties which a man owes to his fellow men,' or 'wicked, deviant behavior constituting an immoral, unethical, or unjust departure from ordinary social standards such that it would shock a community.'"
"Eastman has been found guilty of seven counts of just such moral turpitude."
"That most severe penalty is disbarment, a final ruling on which will ultimately come before the California Supreme Court. In the interim, Eastman has been ordered to 'involuntary inactive status.' In other words, his law license has been suspended."
"The most serious charge in the disbarment proceedings against Eastman was that he had 'conspired with President Trump to obstruct a lawful function of the government of the United States — specifically, by conspiring to disrupt the electoral count on January 6, 2021,'" Schoenfeld observes. "But also among the eleven charges against Eastman were eight counts of moral turpitude….

Jennifer Rubin: The recommendation of Eastman’s #disbarment is a big deal — for tRump
"A State Bar Court of California judge on Wednesday recommended stripping John Eastman, Donald Trump’s former #attorney, of his California law license. Eastman, mastermind of the former president’s scheme to overturn the 2020 election results by recruiting phony electors, is not the first ex-Trump lawyer to face discipline over election-related matters."
