Silencing the Defenders: Trump's War on the Last Line of Resistance
If Trump can destroy America's biggest law firms, who will be left to stand against him?
Donald Trump and his henchmen have set out to break the legs of American democracy by making it difficult for people he hates to hire an attorney to defend themselves or sue the Trump administration.
He and Musk are also, with their public statements, apparently trying to terrify federal and state judges into submission with threats that their followers will employ violence.
This could very well herald the end of our republic, transforming America into something that more closely resembles Russia or 1930s Germany than anything Hamilton or Franklin would have endorsed.
