What? It’s illegal for a lawyer to LIE? At least in Colorado…

 Jenna Ellis, one of former President Donald Trump’s lawyers, was censured Wednesday by the Colorado Bar Association after acknowledging saying 10 misrepresentations about the 2020 election.

Among the false statements:

  • Ellis told Fox Business that “ballots were manipulated"
  • On Newsmax's "Spicer & Co." she said,  “we know the election was stolen”
  • On Fox News she claimed 500,000 votes in Arizona “were cast illegally.”

As part of her disciplinary settlement, she acknowledged the statements were misrepresentations.

Bryon Large, the presiding disciplinary judge overseeing the complaint, said Ellis violated Colorado bar rules by engaging in conduct “involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation.”
