Good People Do Not Exult in Other’s Misfortune

Luckily, I'm not a good person, so I am quite pleased that, the Ad Hoc Hearing Committee for the D.C. Board on Professional Responsibility has recommended that Rudolph Giuliani should be disbarred.

It's technically up to the US Court of Appeals for DC to make the final decision, but I would surprised if they decide to ignore this:

A D.C. Court of Appeals committee that oversees attorney conduct recommended Friday that Rudy Giuliani, the former New York mayor and personal attorney to former president Donald Trump, be disbarred, determining he should not be allowed to practice law in the nation’s capital because of his attempt to block the results in the 2020 presidential election in Pennsylvania.

The finding by the Ad Hoc Hearing Committee for the D.C. Board on Professional Responsibility follows lengthy hearings in December, in which Giuliani vehemently defended his decision to challenge the election results based on information that he said he had received at the time.

“He claimed massive election fraud but had no evidence of it,” the three-person committee determined. “By prosecuting that destructive case, Mr. Giuliani, a sworn officer of the court, forfeited his right to practice law. He should be disbarred.”

………

The full board is expected to review the committee’s recommendation later in the year during briefings and oral arguments. The board’s decision would then be reviewed by the D.C. Court of Appeals, which ultimately makes the final decision on disbarments.

………

The report, which accused Giuliani of “dishonesty,” was signed by the group’s chairman, Robert C. Bernius, as well as members Carolyn Haynesworth-Murrell and Jay A. Brozost.


“We cannot clearly and convincingly say that Mr. Giuliani intentionally lied,” the committee determined. “But his hyperbolic claims of election fraud and the core thesis of the Pennsylvania litigation were utterly false, and recklessly so. Mr. Giuliani’s rash overstatement claiming that the election was stolen had no evidence to support it. His utter disregard for facts denigrates the legal profession.”

Giulian's, "Utter disregard for facts," denigrates the whole f%$#ing planet.

I hope that he sells his cell with Donald Trump.
