While I completely agree with the sentiment, I wish news publications would avoid judgement words (like “cowardly”) except in opinion pieces. Tell me the facts and let me decide what my judgement is.
I really disliked how /r/politics allowed submissions from so many obviously biased sources that were largely just opinion pieces. We have an opportunity to build something better here, and make the news only come from reputable sources with a manageable level of bias.
If we want to curb these behaviors, we have to hold them accountable. INAL, but this has to be stopped my the Bar or it means nothing as an organization. If lawyers don’t want to be judged by their worst examples, hold the bad ones accountable. Then maybe, the rest of us will start to respect the Bar more. Same goes for the police.
He’s a lier.

Wood has claimed that President Trump won the presidential election with 70% of the vote, and that a secret cabal of international communists, Chinese intelligence, and Republican officials had conspired to steal the election from Trump.

That’s being said, I hope they deny the request.

As a lawyer, the worst punishment the bar can give me is disbarment. What needs to be stopped? He’s giving up his law license voluntarily.

It is not the same consequence as being disbared. He deserves the public shame.
Other lawyers considering similar fuckery are watching, and retirement may be be enough of a deterrent.
Yep, agreed. Neither one should have a retirement loophole for facing consequences.
