The way I look at it, there are two issues at play here: First there's Courtney Milan's comments, and then there's the RWA reaction.
For me, the latter is the real issue. First, the RWA President-Elect chooses to bypass the entire Ethics committee rather than simply asking Courtney Milan to recuse herself. Second, he sets up a secret committee that reports only to him and it's that committee that decides to expel Milan and ban her from holding office in future.
If those optics don't look shady to you... I really don't know what to say.
Damon Suede (the President-Elect) could have handled this a lot better simply by keeping the process out in the open rather than going straight to the Star Chamber approach.
