The American Bar Association has no integrity. The people in trump's orbit who are allowed to practice law (heavy emphasis on the practice part) in obvious bad faith is a joke. Obvious grounds for these people to be disbarred left and right and nothing meaningful happens.

It's a sham org.

The ABA is not in charge of attorney discipline in specific jurisdictions. They publish model rules of professional conduct, and accredit law schools, and some other stuff. But the California Bar is in charge of this particular disciplinary proceeding.
