My ex is a lawyer, I know stuff I could blackmail her with, nothing bad just personal stuff that you'd not be happy being public. I wouldn't dare try it, even if I was inclined too.

Blackmail is illegal regardless if what you're after. At the very least I'd lose my job.

You can't really blackmail lawyers unless they are actually corrupt. Never mind, they're his lawyers, of course they are.

Blackmail might be too strong of a word, but he did strongly encourage a law firm to give him free services so their security clearances weren't revoked. It's good to be king, I guess.
