John Eastman devised a fringe legal theory to try to keep Trump in power. Now he may be disbarred.

#Eastman and the California State Bar have amassed #witness #lists that include figures who have rarely spoken publicly about Jan. 6 but may hold valuable evidence — including Eastman himself, who is listed as a potential witness by the state bar’s trial counsel and by his own defense team. Their lists also include other high-profile figures, like former Bush administration lawyer John #Yoo and Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn #Benson, who are slated to testify as experts about constitutional law or election administration.
Eastman’s list features Kurt #Olsen, a lawyer who spoke with Trump multiple times on Jan. 6 and who helmed legal efforts to unravel the election results in multiple states; Peter #Navarro, the former Trump trade adviser who authored discredited reports on election integrity during the final weeks of 2020; Kurt #Hilbert, a lawyer who worked on Trump’s post-election litigation in Georgia; Linda #Kerns, a lawyer who worked on Trump’s post-election lawsuit in Pennsylvania; former Georgia State Sen. William #Ligon; Doug #Logan, the CEO of far-right election “audit” firm Cyber Ninjas; and Russell #Ramsland, who was involved with a review of voting machines in Antrim County, Michigan, that became the source of pro-Trump conspiracy theories.
