Interview with Scott Cummings – Professor of Ethics at UCLA School of Law – Author of Numerous Books on Ethics in Gov’t and Accountability.
Discussion on the MAGA lawyers being disbarred and ethics violations unheard of in years past, and how to curtail abusive lawyering by legal professionals. We discuss the concept of how lawyers concerned with prestige and power – pushing falsehoods and cases that should never be brought to court – by their actions are aiding in democratic backsliding of the rules of law and consequently our nation.
