John Eastman, a conservative lawyer who helped devise post-2020 strategies to keep Donald Trump in office, was recently disbarred by the California Supreme Court after the state’s highest court concluded his conduct surrounding efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election violated professional rules. The ruling strips Eastman of his law license in California for what the court characterized as participation in a scheme to subvert the lawful certification of election results, centering on his legal memoranda and advice that sought to create alternate slates of electors and obstruct the transfer of power.
