Official media release:

I have been steeped in #January6th matters since that day.

I have been honored to represent @libradunn & @SergeantAqGo, two other heroes of #January6th, along with my colleague @DavidLaufmanLaw.

I am also very proud to represent @JulieFarnam, who was USCP Acting Intel Chief, and a lawful #whistleblower. @wbaidlaw

But let's not forget some of the battles I had with @January6thCmte regarding its Staff Director #DavidBuckley and Senior Staff Member #JoeMaher.

My comments on @January6thCmte final report which really left a lot on the table & I question why.

The #Sicknick wrongful death lawsuit has been assigned to Judge Amit P. Mehta, who has been handling many #January6th matters.
