Pro-Trump attorney Lin Wood blames satanists in the Georgia Bar for him giving up law license

An attorney who worked to overturn the 2020 presidential election on behalf of Donald Trump said satanic symbols prompted him to give up his law license.

In a letter this week, Lin Wood revealed that the State Bar of Georgia had agreed to drop the disciplinary hearing if he retired as a lawyer. Wood had faced discipline connected to his efforts to overturn the election.

Wood later insisted on Telegram that he had not retired to end the disciplinary proceedings.

Instead, he said he blamed his retirement on satanic symbols.

"Anyone who suggests that my voluntary retirement from the GA B.A.R. was out of fear of disbarment, does not know me or has not followed me very long on Telegram," he wrote. "My retirement request to the GA B.A.R. was planned and timed in the manner and timing of my choice after much prayer and time spent reading the Holy Bible.

"Through the litigation process, I concluded that the GA B.A.R. was heavily infiltrated and led by Freemasons and other secret society members and its symbols were satanic," Wood added. "I wanted out!!! Light cannot yoke with darkness. So I got out. On terms totally acceptable to me."
