Jonathan Lawyer is a character portrayed by Ryan George on the Ryan George YouTube channel. He claims to be a lawyer and was James Politician's former advisor.
Biography:
Old Town Road Remixes Are Getting Out of Hand
His first appearance was in the Old Town Road Remixes Are Getting Out Of Hand video, where he offers people with the opportunity to get a financial compensation for being on an old town road remix without consent. Without realizing, Lawyer himself ends up in Old Town Road Remix and decides to shut the offer down.
When Sketchy People Write Tell-All Books
In the video "When Sketchy People Write Tell-All Books" [1] Jonathan Lawyer is being interviewed about his connections with James Politician and his mischievous acts. However, Jonathan Lawyer uses the opportunity to promote his book Hey, I Saw Some Real Freakin' Sketchy Stuff For Sure and many other pieces of merchandise. As the video progresses however, we see how Jonathan Lawyer was involved in the negative behavior James Politician was being accused of. For example, when examining an audio recording of James Politician teaching the resident mascot of City Townville's City Hall, Wilfred the Parrot how to say curse words, it is seen that Jonathan Lawyer was also on the recording helping James Politician.
After Brett Newscaster has had enough he sheds a light on the moral issue of Jonathan's actions. Jonathan then leaves the broadcast shortly after Brett Newscaster's harshly worded speech. Ironically the next thing Brett Newscaster says is "Ok our next story: is fast food causing a nationwide health crisis? The answer, coming up right after this commercial for In-N-Out Burgers."

"Cause I wrote out all my feelings on the matter. And printed them on t-shirts which are now available for sale now Brett. They're real good quality, I had them made in something called a sweat shop, so I think they absorb perspiration or something."
