to me, it doesnt look like MA wants to work as a lawyer any longer anyway - imho, he's trying to get into politics or the media, with a talk show on CNN or something like that.

I can see the Promo for his new CNN show now: "Bad boy former lawyer, willing to lay it all on the line in search of the Truth." Nike Kaepernick "sacrifice everything" ad unironically plays.

Bromwich specifically raised concerns with an email from Davis that apparently suggested an outside counsel would question Ford.

“This hearing plan that Mr. Davis described does not appear designed to provide Dr. Blasey Ford with fair and respectful treatment,” Bromwich wrote. “In our view, the hiring of an unnamed ‘experienced sex crimes prosecutor,’ as Mr. Davis described in his email, is contrary to the Majority’s repeated emphasis on the need for the Senate and this Committee’s members to fulfill their constitutional obligations.”

He added: “It is also inconsistent with your stated wish to avoid a ‘circus,’ as well as Dr. Blasey Ford’s requests through counsel that senators conduct the questioning. This is not a criminal trial for which the involvement of an experienced sex crimes prosecutor would be appropriate.”

He went on to request the prosecutor's resume "immediately" and asked to meet with her Tuesday.

brietbart is shit but you're looking at it in a silly way. MA shouldn't have come forward before confirming that's what his clients want. He jumped the gun on standard procedure. Then later said that it's up to the women. which is him blaming them for not coming forward to honor the "drop" he made before he was supposed to. as Goom says, that's potentially ground for disbarment. by saying it's up to the women to come forward he's pre-blaming them for expectations of his announcement not being met. he should have stfu until the second they consented to come forward, at least with a story if not the full monty.

you realize of course how serious disbarment is, right?

Quote (Avenatti)

Let me be clear: We will disclose the client’s name and accusations only when SHE is ready and we have adequate security measures in place. And not a moment before that,” Avenatti tweeted. “It is her choice and hers alone as to when to surface bc it is her life. We expect it within the next 36 hrs.”

I don't see Avenatti walking back his statement about the woman going public as blaming any women... was he wrong to give a timeline? sure, probably, but not sure what's wrong about that statement??!? He didn't say, "hey, if she doesn't come forward it's her fault"

& yes, I know what disbarment is, i've watched better call saul.

The problem is an attorney accusing a sitting judge of gang rape with no immediate proof to offer.
