The U.S. Supreme Court disbarred Larry Klayman, founder of Judicial Watch, barring him from practicing before the high court in a Monday order, according to Raw Story, The Washington Times and Just the News. The court had suspended him in June and ordered him to show why he should not be disbarred; he filed a response, the order says. Just the News reports that the order gave no reason. Raw Story, citing Reuters, says courts in Washington and Florida suspended him several times from 2020 to 2025 over his conduct toward clients and courts, most recently for two years in Florida in November 2025.
