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.
@GottaLaff I went to school with people who became attorneys. I know they had to take the same history classes and political science classes that the rest of us did. I’m even going to assume that white shoe attorneys went to better universities than I did, or at least had prettier endowments.
So there is no damn excuse for them to not know that appeasement doesn’t work, it’s never worked, it will never work, it just makes the bully more entitled. We are surrounded by Chamberlains when what we need is a good Churchill.
