Eastman after he represented the Trump campaign in legal challenges to the 2020 presidential election.<\/p>\n<p>The request to take away Eastman\u2019s high court privileges is unusual because no other body has previously disbarred him. Normally, an effort to disbar a lawyer in the Supreme Court comes after another court has already ruled against the person in professional misconduct proceedings.<\/p>\n<p>But left-wing activists have long been incensed at the famous conservative legal scholar\u2019s speech at the Jan. 6, 2021, \u201cStop the Steal\u201d rally in Washington. There was a breach at the United States Capitol during congressional certification of the presidential election results while the rally was still going on at the other end of the National Mall. Former President Donald Trump denies that he had anything to do with the civil disorder and cites the fact that he specifically urged his supporters to protest peacefully.<\/p>\n<p>Members of the U.S. House Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the U.S. Capitol have been investigating Eastman\u2019s legal advocacy for the Trump campaign\u2014including a theory that then-Vice President Mike Pence, while presiding over the joint session of Congress, could have delayed or halted the counting of electoral votes. Eastman has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theepochtimes.com\/former-trump-advisor-john-eastman-claims-he-was-frisked-by-fbi-agents-who-seized-his-phone_4562730.html\">claimed<\/a> federal agents violated the law when they seized his personal cellphone in June.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year, the group, known as The 65 Project, founded by longtime Democratic Party operative and Clinton ally David Brock, began filing bar complaints against attorneys across the country who challenged the election results. The purpose of the group is to \u201cnot only bring the grievances in the bar complaints, but shame them and make them toxic in their communities and in their firms,\u201d Brock told Axios earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p>Brock,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A cancel-culture group linked to Hillary Clinton has asked the Supreme Court to disbar attorney John C.
