This was 100% predictable (and predicted). The big firms that capitulated will cave and do whatever Trump wants. He owns them and will humiliate them for the next 3+ years.

If you are a lawyer at one of these firms, leave now with your dignity.

If you are a law student -- is this what you want?

Renoir was born in Limoges, France, 184 years ago today — but back in 1876, he was 35 years old when he painted his Impressionist masterpiece, “Dance at the Moulin de la Galette.”

As Renoir liked to say, “There are enough ugly things in life.”
