I Am Not A Lawyer, and now neither is Lin Wood.
LIN WOOD, A former member of Donald Trump’s legal team and one of the foremost pushers of the lie that the 2020 election was rigged, has permanently retired from practicing law.

When you're too crazy for the nuthouse.
The House Freedom Caucus has voted to oust Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., a member of the conservative group confirmed to Politico Thursday.

"My attorneys had a productive meeting with the DOJ this morning, explaining in detail that I did nothing wrong, was advised by many lawyers, and that an Indictment of me would only further destroy our Country," he (DJT) wrote.
Ahh...well that clears it all right up, then.

It makes me sad that Joe Biden and Donald Trump are most likely going to be our options come November 2024.

It’s like watching Hollywood releasing “Dumb and Dumber Three.” No one wants it, but damnit they’re gonna make you live it despite your protestations.

The number of lawyers you have has a perfect correlation to innocence - now it all makes sense!
I would say that Trump should have a wing of the bar association named after him for the money he has spent on lawyers (assuming he actually pays them), but given that a number of them will likely end up getting disbarred, I'm not so sure about that.

They could name the dumpster out by the loading dock for him. Would that work? Every now and then, they could set it on fire, just to recreate the vibe.

Brilliant - what a great idea. I bet you could sell tickets to have people come see it and make offerings in his honor.

For any Ted Lasso fans, I imagine it was like the scene from season 3 where the team owners go to eat with the crooked Nigerian billionaire.

Donald Trump’s body-man Walt Nauta pleaded not guilty to new criminal charges brought by special counsel Jack Smith in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case, while the arraignment for his co-defendant Carlos De Oliveira has been postponed because he still doesn’t have a Florida lawyer.
How does he not still have a lawyer? Either Trump is indeed paying for his counsel, and nobody wants to inherit that risk, or it's a another delay tactic.
His arraignment is now scheduled for next Tuesday.
