President Trump expanded the campaign against lawyers, he dislikes a new memorandum that threatens to use government power to punish any law firms, which he thinks unfairly challenging his administration.
Memory Justice and Homeland directs the heads of security departments to “seek sanctions against lawyers and law firms that are involved in irrational, irrational and ridiculous lawsuit against the United States” or in cases facing federal agencies.
Mr Trump issued the order late on Friday night for the US legal community after a tumultuous week, in which a prominent firm in the country, Paul, Weiss, Rifkin, Warton and Garrison, attacked an agreement with the White House to rescue the company last week.
Venita Gupta, who, as a civil rights lawyer and a former officer of the Department of Justice, has prosecuted the government and defended it in court, saying that Mr Trump’s memo “attacked the attacker on our legal system, threatening the legislature and attacking our government.”
In response to criticism of the memo, White House spokesman, Taylor Rogers, said: “President Trump is pursuing his promise to ensure the judicial system against the American people no longer be made a weapon. President Trump’s only revenge is a success and historical achievement for the American people.”
The president has long complained that the Democratic -leaving lawyers and law firms have followed the investigation against themselves and their allies in the form of legalization, which they call the law, which they claim to be affected by politics. He has targeted three firms since taking the oath of office, but it seems that the new memo threatens a similar punishment for any lawyer or firm that raises his anger.
Mr Trump agreed to several promises to cancel the order, after Mr Trump issued an order to suspend security clearance for lawyers and to rapidly enroll his employees from entering government buildings or increase government jobs.
As part of the deal, the firm said that Mr Trump would provide 40 million legal services by Mr Trump, including his task force to counter counter -ism.
Another firm targeted by Mr Trump, Perkins, chose a different tech – he tried in the federal court and received a temporary prevention of prevention against the president.
Instead of Trump’s attacks on law firms and the decision to reduce the deal in Paul Weiss’s court, the decision to reduce the deal has sent waves of trauma by the legal community. The neat nature of the president’s latest demand has come to light as he has also increased his public attack on judges and the idea that the courts can tell him what to do.
Ms Gupta said that the executive branch “should neither be frightened nor punish those who challenge it and should not be a mediator who is serious – there are reservations to deal with it.” “At this moment, the courage and collective action between lawyers and legal profession has been demanded.”
It also came out about the request of the president of the Allen Enemy Act a week ago between a federal judge and the administration in Washington, which he immediately sent more than 100 Venezuelan immigrants, which he said had a gang members at a major prison complex in El Salvador.
Civil rights activists say the exile has violated the law, and the administration’s refusal to give clear answers to this behavior is based on the US judicial system.
A law firm, who is prosecuting his policies, said it would not back down despite the threats from the White House.
San Francisco’s firm, Van Ghansla and Peters leaders, who have sued the Trump administration on their immigration raids, “considered Mr Trump’s latest memory” unforgivable and despised. “
“Our freedoms depend on the consent of lawyers to represent unpopular people and reasons, including negative issues of the federal government,” the firm said in a statement. “Our profession, regardless of their political affiliation or ability to pay, is a debt of enthusiastic legal representation to every client without fear of revenge.”
The firm also encouraged other lawyers to be involved in a nationwide attempt to briefly present a “court friend” in a case against Mr Trump.
Mr Trump’s Friday night’s memo, titled “Prevention of Legal System and Federal Court Abuse,” complains that lawyers have long been engaged in immoral behavior to oppose it, or to oppose deportation. The memo also suggests that the Trump administration will create disciplinary references against lawyers who follow cases without merit “, especially in cases that involve national security, homeland protection, public security or electoral integrity.”
Mr Trump also used the announcement to attack a particular lawyer called Mark Elias, a special lawyer.
Mr Elias had previously worked in Perkins Koi, and has long represented Democrats. Mr Trump accused Mr Elias of uncertain allegations about his links with Russia, other than others, which the FBI investigated in 2016 and 2017.
In a written statement, Mr Elias said, “President Trump’s goal is clear. He wants lawyers and law firms to be helped and upset by then.” He added, “This White House will not have any talks about the customers we represent or the cases we bring by them.”
