Frankly, this is shameful on the part of Paul, Weiss.

The executive orders targeting law firms are an existential threat to the legal industry. Capitulation is not the answer.

#Trump rescinds his Executive Order targeting Paul, Weiss because the firm entered into an “agreement” with Trump.

According to the White House, Trump agreed to rescind after a meeting w/ Paul Weiss chairman Brad Karp, in which Karp “acknowledged the wrongdoing” of former partner Mark Pomerantz.

Following #Trump’s shameful #Tesla advert on the WH lawn last week, US #Commerce Secy #HowardLutnick used a TV appearance to urge Americans to buy stock in #ElonMusk's company.

Cabinet secretaries *don't typically* [NEVER] recommend individual stocks, much less those linked to the president's closest adviser.

Trump wants to privatize, deprive special needs and nearly everyone else of a quality, free education. It’s about racism, power, control, and busting unions.

#Trump just signed an executive order directing Education Secretary Linda McMahon to start dismantling the Department of Education.

The complete elimination of the department would require the approval of Congress.

Judge #Boasberg is not happy with the #Trump admin's response to his request for more details about the flights. A "show cause" is
👉🏼typically the beginning of a contempt process👈🏼, and he wants to know whether govt will invoke state secrets privilege.

Boasberg said the government "evaded its obligations" by once more refusing to provide details about the timing of the flights and when his order came out to return the planes.

Trump is going to sink his defence industry as well as the country

The United States can block Germany from using its fleet of F-35 combat jets at any time. The Pentagon is said to have insisted on reserving the right to stop sorties under “exceptional and urgent circumstances, when it is required by the US national interest”. It has also refused to allow German officials to inspect the computer code that controls the aircraft.

Well, it’s done…

#Trump Signs Order Aimed at Closing #Education Dept.

Trump signed an #ExecutiveOrder that he said would “begin eliminating the federal Department of Education once & for all,” although the agency cannot be closed without the approval of #Congress. Some critical functions, including those related to student loans & special education funding, are *expected* to continue to be run out of the reduced agency.
