It is patently unlawful; and good for Perkins Coie! Trump is relying not on legality but on big firms' being scared to challenge him.
💥 BREAKING: A spokesperson from Perkins Coie, the law firm that President Trump targeted yesterday in an Executive Order, messaged me today:
“We have reviewed the Executive Order. It is patently unlawful, and we intend to challenge it.”
