Making Lawyers Toxic in Their Communities

Making lawyers "toxic in their communities" is a tactic of The 65 Project. The group files ethics complaints against lawyers who represented clients raising challenges to the 2020 election, despite a substantial body of evidence that presidential election results have been frequently challenged throughout our nation's history, including most recently by Democrats in 2000 and 2016.
While The 65 Project makes the claim on their website of defending democracy and the rule of law, they do exactly the opposite... by isolating, financially crippling and destroying the careers of those in the legal profession who dared challenge the government-endorsed narrative that the 2020 election was the most secure in our nation's history.
The tactics used to make lawyers "toxic" include filing ethics complaints, misrepresenting their legal work in the press, refusing to look at the evidence of election irregularities, demonizing those who raise the claims to keep the evidence from seeing the light of day, and encouraging professional associations to isolate or distance themselves from these lawyers.
The 2020 election was fraught with irregularities. It is essential for the continued integrity of our elections and the public's trust in them, to give those who have evidence a platform to present their cases. It is crucial to bring to light the courts' refusals to examine the evidence of election irregularities.... Preserving the integrity of elections calls for the greatest safeguards and vigilance.

Indeed, the election of 1876 famously yielded multiple slates of electors from several southern states, and the dispute took months to resolve by a special commission created by Congress for the task.
