WASHINGTON — On Thursday, the powerful law firm Paul Weiss caved.

It agreed to give Donald Trump’s administration $40 million in free legal work for causes the president supports and, according to a social media post from Trump, get rid of any internal diversity, equity and inclusion policies.

In response, Trump rescinded his executive order that targeted the firm and could have cost it significant business.

Cohen said she didn’t want to be in this position and wishes she weren’t. She believes “a coup” is happening in America right now. She wishes the most powerful attorneys in the country had immediately banded together and decided to send a clear message that Trump’s actions were unacceptable.

“We are in this moment where the president is testing what he can get away with and whether the structures that we have in this country that are supposed to prevent us from having a dictator will hold,” she said. “We are not the first or the biggest line of defense. The big law firms are not going to save us, but we are a brick in a wall, and we’re pretty close to the bottom.”

Thankfully we don't have an indian woman in the white house.

I'm not defending BIG U in any way. But this is also called extortion. Trump is definitely responsible for many people dying. The behavior of Trump is the white man's version of "checking in". All Republicans including 80%;of the dems are afraid of standing up to him.

Just another reminder that Trump has no anti black policies, family.

[get these nets]

Hadnt kept up with all the executive orders, and reading the article I thought it was a misprint saying that an EO was issued directed at a single law firm, and then rescinded.
But I was wrong

Addressing Risks from Paul Weiss
