Former President Donald Trump issued an executive order targeting the New York-based law firm Paul, Weiss, suspending security clearances for its employees as part of a broader strategy to challenge legal entities representing his adversaries. This action has sparked debate, with Republican Senator Lindsey Graham supporting Trump's move and suggesting that private businesses have collaborated with government entities to undermine Trump. The situation highlights ongoing discussions about the perceived weaponization of legal and governmental institutions against Trump, with insights from figures like former U.S. Attorney Barb McQuade and First Amendment scholar Lee Bollinger contributing to the discourse on the intersection of politics, law, and business in the U.S.
