“When I read about the capitulation to President Trump by the big law firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP, I couldn’t help thinking about the capitulation of lawyers in countries like Germany and Chile. … Paul Weiss could have chosen to fight. It certainly had the financial resources to do so. It had the right to file suit in federal court to seek a judicial declaration that Trump’s actions were illegal, malicious, vicious, retaliatory, and unconstitutional. Paul Weiss instead reached out to Trump and struck a deal, one in which the firm agreed to provide Trump with $40 million — yes, $40 million! — in free legal services in the future for causes that are near and dear to Trump’s heart.” (03/25/25)
