"Since taking office, Spanky has targetedindividual lawyers with specialized skills — such as security clearances and experience representing whistleblowers — through intimidation and government action. He has not only demonized them but also imposed sanctions, revoking security clearances and barring them from entering government buildings, making it difficult for them to represent clients in these areas. . More recently, he has begun issuing executive orders targeting entire large law firms and their thousands of employees. The impact of these orders extends beyond those firms, creating a chilling effect across the legal profession. Trump hopes these tactics will discourage lawyers and firms from taking on cases that challenge him and his administration."
