Unfortunately the clip isn’t long enough that I can understand WHY this is happening. But the fact it is happening at all is pretty amazing.

Seems like ancient history already but when and if Democrats are ever in control again, banning any and all Federal work with these law firms needs to be a “day one” executive order.

If law firms only want to fight for drumpf then they cannot be trusted at all. Those who have fought these illegal deals have won and as lawyers they should know better. Which leaves me not to think that they cut these deals because they WANTED to help him.
