And I'm particularly tired of journalists (here, Robert Reich) who perpetuate the nonsense that the ABA isn't doing its job because it "refuses" to disbar attorneys serving Trump, when the ABA has no authority to do so.

Especially since this particular journalist also happens to be a lawyer, who has every reason to know he is perpetuating nonsense.
