In light of recent events surrounding John Eastman’s California disbarment trial, a notable update came to light on Tuesday. Eastman’s attorney reported that a certain right-wing podcaster, well-known for his propagation of unfounded conspiracy theories related to the 2020 election, abstained from testifying due to receiving “serious” death threats. It remains to be seen what impact this sudden testimony cancellation may have on the outcome of Eastman’s trial.
