?The first thing we do, let?s kill all the lawyers.?

Donald Trump?s crusade against his opponent?s lawyers represents a new front in his war on the rule of law.

In a series of moves that seem culled from the authoritarian playbooks of Tayyip Erdoğan, Vladimir Putin and Viktor Orb?n abroad, and that harken back to the dark days of McCarthyism and the second Red Scare here at home, Trump has slapped three prominent private law firms with longstanding ties to the Democratic Party with executive orders designed to impose crippling sanctions on their operations. The orders charge the law offices with ?weaponizing the judicial process? against Trump, and call for terminating their federal contracts; suspending the security clearances of at least some of their attorneys; and limiting their access to federal government buildings, presumably including courtrooms.
It's a war on lawfare, not the rule of law, the fact that a district judge can dictate the foreign policy of the USA is simply laughable, and is quite rightly being challenged. The Dems are facilitating the legal challenges to Trump's EOs through three particular law firms, each having as you say, 'long standing ties to the Democratic Party', so naturally a Republican government is going to withdraw their security clearance, they are not part of government, what do they need security clearance for ? I believe they've even withdraw Biden's as government has nowt to do with him any more, not that it had much to with him anyway in the last four years. Has anyone ascertained yet just who was running the USA while Biden rambled and sucked his thumb ?
