I'm not misreading your comment. The supposed "experts" within the legal profession are utterly corrupt and can't be trusted. That's my point. It's an insiders club and they all support each other and buy vacation homes and give each other's kids jobs. When principles conflict with in-group elitism and closed ranks the latter always wins.

Just like every other group of supposed "experts" in the professional class these days. That's just how America is run in 2024. It's the problem.
