Gdism. This shit.

I don’t want prosecution to be afraid of going after criminals…. But if your State Bar says you effed up; the penalty should HURT.

OH NO a $1250 fine. Golly.

How about a $125,000 fine.

Those well known LibTards /s of the Texas Bar said boy you done messed up. Punish his ass

Well the real effect is reputational. No fancy law firms or reelection after this.

Plenty of ultra-wealthy clients looking for a lawyer willing to defend fascism.
