Huge study by Reuters shows that pro bono work is drying up, leaving victims on waiting lists to get attorneys to work on their cases. Whether or not law firms have been targeted, they are acting in fear, refusing to help the most vulnerable. The fascist's plan is working.

"This argument is absurd!" - filled w/ dozens of exclamation marks, this federal judgement hammers the administration. I work at this law firm, so it's great to hear; the DOJ hasn't appealed in their similar losses (I've a friend at Perkins Coie, who also won), so things look good for us.

Paul, Weiss and Skadden, Arps prostituted themselves and ruined their firms—150 and 77 years old—for nothing. All they needed to do was wait a few days.
And they failed their clients, they failed the law, and they failed our country. Cowards.
