Donald Trump's lawyers face legal peril over their 'astonishing knack for getting into trouble'

As the House Select Committee continues its investigation into the January 6 insurrection, a new analysis is detailing the extent of trouble former President Donald Trump’s lawyers could be facing.

In a piece published by Vice News, reporter Greg Walters discussed the latest developments for Rudy Giuliani and John Eastman. Noting that the committee is now zeroing in on the former president's legal team, Walters noted that the two are facing multiple criminal law violations in connection with the insurrection.

"The committee accused Trump of breaking four laws in the course of attempting to hold on to power after losing the 2020 election," Walters wrote, adding, "And Trump had plenty of help pursuing his nefarious schemes, the panel alleged—primarily from the guys normally tasked with keeping their client out of legal hot water."

He added, "Trump’s lawyers, to the contrary, often seem to revel in cranking up the temperature. The committee singled out lawyers John Eastman, Rudy Giuliani, Jeffrey Clark, and Ken Chesebro for further investigation by the Department of Justice as potential Trump co-conspirators."

Delighted to hear nefarious lawyers are getting attention from authorities.

I am reading the Jan.6 Committee summary. One of the not surprising reveals is how many people stated Giuilani was drunk a lot. No surprise to many of us who can recognize the signs, but it does answer the question of " What the hell happened to Rudy."
