JUST IN: Lin Wood fired by the teenager who faced off with Native American in viral video in 2019

Nick Sandmann has fired fellow Trump-supporter Lin Wood, who represented the Kentucky teenager in defamation lawsuits against several media outlets after a 2019 video went viral showing the then-Covington Catholic High School student in a face-off with a Native American man in Washington, D.C.

Earlier this month, Wood tweeted, "If Pence is arrested, @SecPompeo will save the election. Pence will be in jail awaiting trial for treason. He will face execution by firing squad. He is a coward & will sing like a bird & confess ALL."

Sandmann replied, "I'm sorry but what the hell," adding later, "this is a dumb tweet."

The move is the latest indication that those who supported former President Donald Trump’s baseless claim that his loss to Biden was the result of mass fraud could face longer term professional consequences.

A Delaware state judge this month blocked Wood from representing former Trump adviser Carter Page in a defamation lawsuit, saying that his conduct in election-related lawsuits “exhibited a toxic stew of mendacity, prevarication and surprising incompetence.”
