Every Patriot should stand up for these Constitutional lawyers willing to speak out, IMHO.
If anyone likes their free speech, they should pay attention to how the current dicktator is punishing anyone on the side of the Constitution and GEOTUS.
“Three lawsuits attempting to bankrupt a constitutional scholar for giving the prior Republican president legal advice will cost him $3 to $3.5 million, John Eastman said Friday. Eastman was a target of Democrats’ illegal Jan. 6 Committee and has been harassed by the FBI and courts since assisting Donald Trump in 2020 constitutional litigation.
“This is what I call the authoritarian moment in our history,” Eastman told reporter Julie Kelly and podcast cohost Liz Sheld. “The whole premise here is: ‘The government has spoken and you continue to say otherwise. Therefore you must be lying.'”
Eastman’s legal defense fund has raised more than half a million dollars so far, “less than a third of what we’ve already incurred and less than about a sixth or seventh of what we’re likely to incur before we’re done,” Eastman said.
To defend himself legally in a Georgia prosecutor’s case against Trump and dozens of his associates, Eastman needs to raise $1 million by February, he said: “I’m trying very hard not to completely deplete my wife’s retirement fund.”
“When our founders pledged their lives and their fortunes and their sacred honors to create a government of a free people with free institutions, they put everything on the line,” he responded when Kelly asked how he and his wife are holding up. “And we are at a crossroads in our country on whether we’re going to go back to a tyrannical form of government where we are subjects, not free citizens, or whether we are going to fight like our forefathers fought and our foremothers fought, for liberty.”
“And so I happen to have been thrust into a role where I can participate in that fight, and I draw strength from that knowledge and from the people that lend support to us because they recognize how important the fight is.”
Why the HELL are attorneys charging $3,000,000 to defend 3 lawsuits, when the defense is simply he was engaging in legal advice?
Who the F**K are these attorneys to charge such outrageous fees?
Looks like a scam.
Are these attorneys undefeated? Never ever lose a case?
Do they not care enough to defend their own profession that they won't do the job pro bono?
More like…why the hell is the government trying to bankrupt Trump’s lawyer….no wonder he can’t find the best attorneys… They have them all afraid.
Attorneys charge per hour, so we have no idea how much work is required…again….the lawyers may be charging so much because they may be targets of the deep state in the future…hazard pay…
Support the Patriots.
