A fully resourced and staffed State Department is critical to American security, our strength as a global competitor, and global stability writ large. 

Secretary Rubio must reverse course immediately.
Trump plan would slash State Dept. funding by nearly half, memo says

"Especially given the speed and ease of these capitulations, there is every reason to believe that the Trump administration will target many more law firms." Appeasement does not work against abusive power. Gregory L. Poe on big law's capitulation:

I would not have predicted that large universities would show more courage than either Big Law or corporate media. Good for them.

The purpose of these tariffs is to be able to lift them to those who bow down to him and sacrifice their dignity. That is what he did to the GOP, the billionaires, and is doing now to Big Law. Those who stand up will be punished, those who bend a knee and humiliate themselves will be rewarded.

If the Supreme Court ultimately agrees with what the gov't is arguing today, that the President has broad Article II powers that would permit it to deport people & there can be no judicial review, then literally no one is safe.
