How Come MAGA Controls Cable News?

I used to believe that the term ‘ambulance chaser’ was something we said about a lawyer who showed up at the scene of an accident and tried to sign up the injured victims before they were carted off to the local hospital or tried to sign up the families of the victims who were taken to the morgue.

But now what we seem to have developed is a new definition of ambulance chaser, namely, lawyers who continue to promote the idea that the 2020 election was a fraud.

Now don’t get me wrong. I happen to have attorneys on both sides of my family, and they are smart, hard-working and ethical folks. I agree that ten thousand lawyers at the bottom of the ocean is a good start, but it’s just a joke.

On the other hand, there’s been no end to the appearances of lawyers who get themselves on alt-right media by continuing to rant about the 2020 election, as if anyone cares.

The latest is someone named Christina Bobb, who was an Executive Secretary at the Department of Homeland Security where her job — get this — was to manage all written correspondence between the DHS Secretary and the outside world.

After the 2020 election, she needed a job, so she ended up working for that bunch who have now all been subpoenaed by the January 6th Committee because they hung out at the Willard Hotel war room.
