Dear Patriot,
I have said from the beginning that the lawfare assault being waged against me
was coordinated and connected to an overarching objective – to “get” Donald
Trump.
Just as I said, within moments of the California State Bar judge issuing her
outrageous ruling to disbar me from the practice of law because I dared
represent President Trump, leftwing lawfare advocates began stoking a media
narrative that I would soon be “turning” against President Trump and would
prove to be a powerful witness against him in exchange for avoiding a prison
sentence for myself.
News flash to these lawfare extremists: I am not turning against President
Trump. He’s done nothing wrong, nor have I. I intend to fight, and defeat, the
lawfare assault being waged against me and President Trump.

Much of the case against me before the California State Bar was leveled by out
of state lawfare lawyers as part of their coordinated quest to “get” President
Trump and any lawyers associated with him. State Bar prosecutors essentially
copied and pasted the lawfare complaint and fashioned it into a disbarment
proceeding, and the judge basically copied and pasted the prosecutors’
allegations in her ruling to have me disbarred.
I need to save my criticism of the opinion for our appeal, but others who
observed the trial and have read the opinion have had plenty to say about it.
Tom Fitton, the President of Judicial Watch, wrote this:
The California attorney discipline process and recommendation of disbarment of
my friend @DrJohnEastman make a mockery of the rule of law. I've reviewed the
recommendation that John be disbarred and it reads as if it were written by a
MSNBC host.
The Regime's new rules are that lawyers will be punished and disbarred for not
agreeing with Left Democrat talking points on election disputes and
constitutional law. Let's hope the judiciary steps up and rejects this abuse of
Eastman as the process thus far has unconscionably victimized him, undermines
the rule of law and every American's right to counsel.
Abe Hamaden, a candidate for Congress in Arizona, had this to say:
The weaponization of the rule of law is the most dangerous threat facing our
country… @DrJohnEastman is a constitutional scholar, former dean of Chapman
School of Law, former clerk to Clarence Thomas and now a judge has recommended
he be disbarred for doing what attorneys are supposed to do: present legal
strategy.
Our legal system is being tested like never before because leftwing lunatics
are emboldened by a weak judiciary who are more worried about what the cocktail
hour partygoers say about them than about their oath of office.
We also called out the Bar attorneys for doctoring a quotation from a court
case in order to make it appear that the court decision upheld the
constitutionality of the Electoral Count Act at a time when I was advising it
was unconstitutional – the decision hadnothing to do with the Electoral Count
Act. Unfortunately, that doctored quotation was repeated in the decision issued
last week.
This just lends credence to the view of multiple commentators that the entire
case has been a charade from the beginning. Rachel Alexander, the reporter with
the Arizona Sun Times who provided the most comprehensive coverage of the
trial, repeatedly described it in such terms. It’s just one of several
coordinated legal attacks to bring me down in the hopes that I will turn
against President Trump and testify against him in exchange for leniency.
Let me be clear: I will do no such thing. First of all, it would be unethical
to do so even if I had communications with my former client that could be used
against him. More importantly, there are no such communications, because
President Trump is not guilty of criminal conduct in questioning the integrity
of the 2020 elections, and I am not guilty of any misconduct in representing
him. I represented President Trump honestly and with integrity, and my conduct
in representing him was well within the bounds of ethical rules for lawyers.
Help Me Fight This Lawfare Abuse
<[link removed]>
My legal team is taking two important steps to fight the California State Bar
ruling.
First, we are requesting that the judge stay her decision to have me
temporarily suspended while my appeal to the California Supreme Court (and
perhaps beyond) is pending. This is important because without a stay in place I
will not be able to practice law and earn an income as a lawyer in California.
Absent a stay, the judge’s ruling means I will be severely hampered in raising
the funds necessary to defend myself.
The second thing we will do is to appeal the judge’s ruling to the State Bar
Appellate Division. If that fails, then an appeal to the California Supreme
Court can be made and, if necessary, to the United States Supreme Court.
But let’s not sugar coat the difficulty of the situation my family and I are
facing. Absent a stay of the judge’s disbarment ruling, pursuing an appeal will
be extremely costly, especially since I will have been stripped of my ability
to practice law in California.
It is, quite simply, an outrage that I have been put into such a position,
having to count on the generosity of others to be able to fight the lawfare
assault that is underway. Those persecuting and prosecuting me truly intend to
crucify my legal career on the altar of leftwing lawfare in the hopes that I
will become a tool to get President Trump.
Please do not let them get away with it. I urgently ask you to donate
generously today

so that I can continue to fight.

Many people being attacked in the way that I have been would view rulings such
as this as a dark moment for themselves and their families. But I realize that
these attacks are the result of the fact that I, perhaps more than anyone, have
the credibility to expose the lies that the 2020 election was the “most secure
in history” and there was no evidence of illegality or fraud. Neither of those
things are true, but the left has to keep up its narrative by attacking anyone
who does not bend the knee to those obvious falsehoods. And although I can
point to the reaction of leftwing radicals as proof that their objective all
along was to target me in the hopes of turning me against President Trump, this
does little in the overall scheme of things to help me stay engaged in the
fight for the truth.
Right now, I am facing disbarment from the practice of law in California, and
being stripped of earning a living as a lawyer even as I try to appeal. I will
not turn on President Trump – he’s done nothing wrong, nor have I – but it is
nonetheless a daunting task to stand on principle.
I urgently need your help
<[link removed]>
to stay in the fight against these vicious and scurrilous attacks. Thank you
for whatever you can do. Please keep me and my family in your prayers.
