Even though Kellyanne is no longer even a member of the District of Columbia Bar, having let her registration lapse, she has been subjected to a vindictive bar complaint before Bar Disciplinary Counsel, filed by 16 leftist law professors, one of whom even serves on the bar’s hearing disciplinary committees.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., warned Sunday there is “very real risk” President Trump will win re-election in 2020, sparking a rare response of its kind from the president: “I agree.” Her comments struck an unusually defensive tone for the 29-year-old progressive firebrand, as Democrats seek to winnow their list of 23 presidential contenders.
