OA1129 - From the Department of Justice to DOGE to elected officials around the US, attorneys who swore to uphold and defend the law are working overtime on the bureaucratic front lines of Donald Trump’s campaign to actively degrade and destroy it. But what if those lawyers knew that there could be real consequences for their ability to practice law in the future for illegal, bad faith, and/or unethical conduct? That question is at the heart of the 65 Project, a non-profit organized to introduce real consequences to the kind of lawyering which is greasing the skids in our long slide into authoritarianism. Managing Director Michael Teter joins to explain how the Project came together, how they decide whether misconduct merits a bar complaint, and how their mission has changed since the 2024 election. <ul> <li> <a href="https://secure.qgiv.com/for/the65project/" rel= "noopener noreferrer nofollow">Donation page for the 65 Project</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://the65project.com/ethics-complaints/" rel= "noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethics complaints</a> filed by the 65 Project </li> </ul> Check out the OA <a href= "https://linktr.ee/openingarguments" rel= "noopener noreferrer nofollow">Linktree</a> for all the places to go and things to do!
