A longtime liberal lawyer who has support Democrats for, well, decades, now is pledging his support for Republicans during the 2026 midterm elections.

It was Alan Dershowitz, whose fame in legal circles is unparalleled.

Defendants to whom he contributed advice at different times include O.J. Simpson, Jeffrey Epstein, Julian Assange, Harvey Weinstein, and even Donald Trump.

His new announcement has just made social media.

"I'm going to be supporting the Republicans in the midterm elections," he said.

He continued, "I'm hoping the Republicans maintain control … both of the House and the Senate. The last thing I want is Chuck Schumer to be head of the Senate or Liz Warren to be chairperson of a committee or AOC to be chairperson of a committee."

He explained, "The Democrats not only have lost my votes, but they have made me an enemy."

He blamed the party for having essentially "moved away from American values, Israeli values and values of decency."
