The Daily Beast reports:
On the same day that she was officially censured for making false claims about the 2020 presidential election, former Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis has come under fire for mocking the fall that left Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell hospitalized with a concussion. “The basic lack of humanity constantly displayed by these people is truly remarkable,” CNN anchor Jake Tapper tweeted in response to Ellis, who posted a video of a turtle falling down the stairs with the caption, “BREAKING: Camera footage from last night’s McConnell dinner obtained.”

I’m not a huge fan of Mitch McConnell’s impact on public life in America. But you have to be a terrible person to think this is amusing or funny. I believe he’s still in the hospital? https://t.co/ZZt1IvjSU8

Actually, the judge found that you knowingly made misrepresentations.
As you (should) know, the Rule of Professional Conduct you agreed that you violated only covers misrepresentations that are made knowingly.
It looks like you haven’t learned from your prior bad choices.
