In case your Schadenfreude levels are receding after the recent high, here is a little pick me up to keep you going into the weekend.



Reuters reports that the DC ethics board has recommended Rudy Giuliani be disbarred for his work on one of the countless bogus lawsuits that challenged the results of the 2020 presidential elections.

Giuliani, formerly Trump's personal lawyer and before that a top Manhattan federal prosecutor and mayor of New York City, tried "to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of Pennsylvania voters without the slightest factual basis for doing so," the D.C. Board on Professional Responsibility said in its 63-page report. The board found that Giuliani violated two legal ethics rules by making sweeping claims of voter fraud without evidence in the Pennsylvania lawsuit, which a federal judge dismissed.

The recommendation now goes to the DC Court of Appeals, which will make the final deliberation.
