Another Craven Law Firm Bends Knee To Trump

 



The Malignant Fascist gets another scalp, and it's a particularly galling one:

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he and law firm Willkie Farr & Gallagher reached a deal on actions to be taken by the company including providing $100 million in legal services and not engaging in diversity, equity and inclusion programs.

The deal comes as major law firms with ties to attorneys who have investigated Trump have been targeted with executive orders seeking to curtail their business with the federal government.
 
Three law firms - Perkins Coie, Wilmer Hale and Jenner & Block - have sued the administration over such orders, and judges have blocked key provisions of the administration’s orders.
 
A Willkie Farr spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
 
Willkie Farr employs 1,200 lawyers in the U.S. and five other countries and is home to Douglas Emhoff, who is married to former Democratic U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris.
We'd expect Mr. Emhoff to exit his cowardly firm, lest he have to exit from his marriage.  Let's hope any attorney with an ounce of integrity will leave this firm, and leave now.

Clients of this firm should also consider "If they won't fight for themselves, why expect them to fight for you?"
