When you plead guilty to filing false documents in a court case and you're a lawyer, you're going to lose your bar licenses.

And that's what's happened to Ken Chesborough, one of the co-conspirators with Donald Trump, who pled guilty in Georgia and has now lost his New York bar license.

I'm Michael Popock.

We have reporting today that Ken Chessboro, one of the architects of the fake

elector scheme, if not the main brain trust behind it, along with John Eastman, who wrote all of

the memos and legal memos that were relied upon and contorted and distorted by MAGA to try to use

Jan 6th as some sort of Waterloo, some sort of time to

set fire to democracy. Now we've got Ken Jesborough paying the piper. Remember, he got

indicted, convicted, pled guilty in Georgia for his role in helping to submit fake documentation,

being the fake elector certificates.

And he apparently, Ken Chesaubro had a series of bar licenses.

As a lawyer, let me tell you, this is how it works.

You have to have a bar license to practice in each individual state and in the federal court separately

and federal courts separately.

You have to usually take a test or sometimes you're able to wave in if there's reciprocity. And it's not unusual for a lawyer to have more than one bar license in order to practice around the country. I have a couple of bar licenses. I'm admitted in federal courts around the country, and apparently so is Ken Chesboro.

But when you plead guilty to a crime involving your law license and the positions that you've

taken before a court, you're going to pay the consequences. I mean, Ken Chesbore should have known that

a year ago when he pled guilty in Georgia, that alone, let alone the indictment in Arizona, the lawsuits in Wisconsin, the unindicted

co-conspirator status in the District of Columbia, that this would, you know, sort of raise

the hackles of the bar grievance committees.

And the way that New York works is that anyone, anyone can file a bar grievance against

a lawyer.
