WSJ: President Trump escalated his fight with the legal industry by issuing an executive order late Friday aimed at Paul Weiss, one of the country’s top law firms, just days after a federal judge chastised the administration for similar retaliation against another firm. Paul Weiss is the third major law firm to face censure by the Trump administration in recent weeks. The 1,200-lawyer firm, which regularly advises on some of the biggest deals on Wall Street, is the president’s most high-profile target yet. It played a prominent role in challenging Trump’s policies during his first administration but had stayed out of the fray this time around. The executive order cited Paul Weiss’s pro bono work on a lawsuit brought by the D.C. attorney general’s office against individuals who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. The order also cites the firm’s association with Mark Pomerantz, who worked at Paul Weiss for two decades, and then worked on an investigation at the Manhattan district attorney’s office into Trump and his business.

这不是显然的吗,还能指望他当圣母?
一点都不意外。 被这样往死里整, 有机会不报复才是傻逼。 竞选的时候就说了如果上台了一定会报复。
不会有“四年后”了。
Trump早就说了,选它,以后就不用再选了。
它会死在任上。当然怎么死,什么时候死,就不好预测了。
他自己不可能连任的,这一点我想再没底线,美国也不会这样。
他想的是把GOP变成私人武装吧,小川普继承政治家业,千秋万代。如果这一点没成功,四年后GOP的人甩他个P啊。
像 JFK那样被爆头更好? 你难道不属于韭菜 -- 想想更可怕
很多人觉得两党下限越来越低、很可悲。 像你这种唯恐天下不乱的,也挺另类。
