Lansing — Michigan's three top officeholders are seeking the disbarment of four attorneys who were involved in a lawsuit that attempted to overturn the results of the presidential election.

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, Attorney General Dana Nessel and Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, three Democrats who are lawyers themselves, filed complaints Monday with the Attorney Grievance Commission in Michigan and the State Bar of Texas.

Their filings ask that Michigan attorneys Greg Rohl, Scott Hagerstrom and Stefanie Junttila and Texas attorney Sidney Powell be disbarred and lose the ability to practice law in their states.
Attorney Sidney Powell, a member of President Donald Trump's legal team, speaks during a rally on Wednesday, Dec. 2, 2020, in Alpharetta, Ga.

Nessel said the attorneys were involved in a suit "based on falsehoods, used their law license in an attempt to disenfranchise Michigan voters and undermine the faith of the public in the legitimacy of the recent presidential election, and lent credence to untruths that led to violence and unrest.".....................................................

2. They Can Drive An Amazon Delivery Truck

Or install solar panels.

A job is a job.

8. Not so fast!

As a residential solar customer, I have had nothing but good results from rooftop solar installers. These shysters would fall off the roof on day-one, and then sue me for damages!

3. If only

the Dems could win the Legislature. Redistricting by committee is our future & hopefully will change things.

4. Great idea. They're either too stupid, too crazy or too crooked to practice law anyway.

Trying to undermine the essential act of voting in a democracy is simply treason. If I were them, I'd roll with the stupid or crazy plea.

5. I'm so proud of these three woman

As a former Michigander, I have to say how proud I am of these women who, despite horrible threats and plots against them, and the republican legislators throwing everything they can think of at them to prevent them from doing their job and helping the people of Michigan, keep moving forward to protect democracy and their citizens. Thank God they are there.

6. This is great. I hope they see this through, and not let up.
