Link doesn't really work but it's Vance's Annual Report for CY 2022 (Amendment 1)
do people see any evidence of this? he was only briefly at sidley austin before going into VC. having a law degree does not mean he necessarily passed (or even took) the bar. you can easily find that his wife is bar certified in california, but JD isn't listed anywhere.
totally possible he passed the bar and i just haven't found the right state to check, but i haven't found it yet (working briefly at a law firm does not mean you passed the bar)
(on twitter i see randos making fun of him for not having passed the bar, but that doesn't mean anything either)
yeah i bet that up because i could not believe he went to yale and got a job at that law firm without passing the bar, but maybe he failed and that's why he left for tech lol, i sold all
i know he had more than one
lemme find it
(could be long ago)
@Ziddletwix 8 years ago he had two so either has one or none or got more and we have no clue lol
