'A deliberate effort to mislead the public': Legal experts denounce Alan Dershowitz's

Dershowitz should be fired! He is pond scum!



'A deliberate effort to mislead the public': Legal experts denounce Alan Dershowitz's warped and desperate defenses of Team Trump
The Harvard professor has conducted a pro-Trump misinformation campaign.

Snip: "Like many of Dershowitz's recent statements, this appears to be a deliberate effort to mislead the public," noted Renato Mariotti, a former federal prosecutor.

I would imagine that he's caught up in that Epstein Web. Sad that so many of these men would trade their country for saving a little face. It will all come out and my guess is that it will be fairly soon. What a disgusting selfish POS he turned out to be...

People getting airtime to spew their lies ... and they are never called on it at the time ... only later when the crap has already been heard and the little minds of the magats have clung to the walls of the sewer to feed
