What exactly did they fear more than the complete destruction of their standing, reputation, integrity? Losing federal contracts and the related security clearances was worse than that?
The quislings at Paul Weiss didn't even try to fight it, just instantly rolled over and committed to around 20,000 to 40,000 hours (given their current rates) of free legal services to advance incompetence, corruption, bigotry, and fascism.
This is wild. Trump says he’s withdrawing his executive order targeting the Paul Weiss law firm because they acknowledged “wrongdoing.”
They’re also going to provide “$40 million in pro bono legal services over the course of President Trump's term to support the Administration's initiatives”

The fight going on in the Democratic Party right now is not between hard left, left and moderate. It’s between those who want to fight and those who want to cave. And Team Fight stretches across all ideological aspects of the Party. Misread this at your own peril.

This is the most chilling article I've read, well, ever. Within 90 days, for example (or sooner) Social Security recipients will likely see delays receiving their monthly checks. It will affect over 70 million Americans, more than half of which need this to survive. That's just part of it:
