President Trump has been signing executive orders that significantly impact major law firms, particularly Perkins Coie, by suspending security clearances and canceling contracts. These actions seem retaliatory, targeting firms that have represented his political rivals. Legal experts view this as a move to undermine the ability of attorneys linked to his opponents, potentially destabilizing the legal frameworks surrounding political representation. Public figures, such as attorney Rachel Cohen, have highlighted the unethical implications of these orders, hinting at broader consequences for the legal community and its independence.
