Hearing that firms are caving left and right after Paul Weiss. Many are eliminating all litigation and representation that is adverse to the Trump administration, including amicus briefs. Nonprofits and law clinics are next. We are watching the end of the rule of law in real time.

And Republicans are all in to bring this back. They don't want people with disabilities or illnesses to get care. "If they would rather die, they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population.”
The ACA was cool because before the ACA EVERY SINGLE CHILD WITH CANCER hit their annual and lifetime limits almost immediately and were denied insurance for the rest of their lives and after the ACA that’s illegal.

🚨BREAKING: It seems very clear that the Administration decided not to abide by the court's order. The question now is what will the judge do. Does he proceed with contempt or something short of that to defuse.
