Did any of the lawyers leave? No?
Thank you for standing up for the rule of law!
You are so right.Stop the coup.
The more I read the daily stories, the blogs, the substacks, the more I realize that nothing is normal anymore. The pundits criticize, prophetise, politicize .. but until America wakes up from this nightmare, it's all just words. And the madman, who knows no boundaries, just keeps pushing us around.
Moderate whites are finding it puzzling that all these "reputable institutions" are "caving in". Here's some insight from a non-white that grew up in this white supremacist country: It's not "caving"; It's complicity, just without the white robes. Hope this helps, sir.
This is critical. Because the law is next to the last in line. Of the law goes down with lawyers then, the People are all that is left to keep fascist monsters from destroying what so many folks died to keep.
The Law Firms that are caving deserve to go out of business. When one caves in to a dictator that starts the ball rolling. Dangerous!

Thank you for this statement. The behavior at Paul Weiss is so, so disappointing and disgusting... What happened to integrity? Is it no longer a thing? Not to mention backbone...
Andrew you are always amazing. I never read anything you鈥檝e written and scratch my head. Thank you
This ongoing GOP Coup will NOT surrender their goals: 2017:
Will America have this kind of courage when the hammer falls? Aleksandr Skobov 馃檹 猬囷笍 Maybe not.
They didn鈥檛 cower or settle. They are trying to harness the power of dictatorship. Same with Facebook, Google, Amazon, Tesla. They are currently leveraging the full Power of the US to stop the EU from passing laws which would regulate their bullshit.
That's rich,the king of frivolous lawsuits thinking lawyers following the law are filing frivolous lawsuits.
Shame on them!

Could The White House be threatening something even more serious to these firms?
Trump must have something on Paul Weiss. After all he has the whole FBI at his disposal now
They ruined themselves or he knows they did something illegal.
Paul Weiss鈥檚 capitulation is an incredibly troubling sign. A well healed, well funded law firm caved without a fight. To me, this is a remarkable black eye on the profession. Shameful. Unprincipled. Terrifying.
The quiet calm before the storm. The goods are being gathered
Tik Tok Andrew
no nation fully enslaved ever finds liberty...
I don't understand capitulation so early. I would expect it later after all else seems defeated. We're only 2 mos in to this admin. COWARDICE!!!!
We need them to stand together against Trump! This democracy won鈥檛 survive otherwise- solidarity!!
The EO against Perkins Coie had been found to be unconstitutional, yet Paul Weiss caved without a peep. So much for legal ethics. If I needed an attorney I certainly wouldn't want this spineless bunch of toadies.
Thanks for your work. NEVER STOP!
So disappointing and scary.
Jeh Johnson? Loretta Lynch? Either of them resign over this??
Thank you for bringing this out.
