AnarchoNinaAnalyzes<p>I've been waiting for just over a week for the folks at TMR to clip this interview with former Skadden lawyer Rachel Cohen so I could share it here. Not only is Cohen's inside baseball perspective on the cowardice of Big Law firms groveling before Trump an interesting watch, but she's also one of the few people with knowledge of the situation willing to state what *I* feel is pretty obvious - that the Trump regime's war on Big Law is about trying to restrict the number of lawyers and firms that will bring totally legitimate cases against their fascist policies and activities, through a sheer question of numbers and resources.</p><p>The clip is only about 15 minutes long, but I guarantee you that Cohen here is spitting more truth than you'll find in all the articles about Big Law's capitalist cowardice and craven surrender in media sources like the Washington Post, the New York Times, or the Wall Street Journal. It's worth the watch:</p><p>The Majority Report: Trump's Revenge</p><p>"Sam and Emma are joined by Rachel Cohen, lawyer formerly of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher &amp; Flom, to discuss the country’s largest law firms bending the knee to Donald Trump."</p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0bVdiTDzQo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">youtube.com/watch?v=y0bVdiTDzQ</span><span class="invisible">o</span></a> </p><p><a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/VichyEstablishment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VichyEstablishment</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/BigLaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BigLaw</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Law</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Courts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Courts</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Skadden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Skadden</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/RachelCohen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RachelCohen</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/TMR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TMR</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/SamSeder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SamSeder</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/EmmaVigeland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EmmaVigeland</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fascism</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> <a href="https://social.treehouse.systems/tags/Collaboration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Collaboration</span></a></p>
