Ping. Looking forward to the comments!
Good.
Perkins Coie is the ‘real world’ analogue of the Buffy The Vampire slayer / Angel tv fantasy universe of “Wolfram & Hart”. Nothing but evil in service to evil.
This is a death sentence for them. A very well deserved death sentence.
They struck at the king and missed.
Now it’s time for payback.

Okay. I will just come out and admit that I don’t understand this Executive Order. There’s a lot to be swallowed here. If you are going to be passing out Dunce Hats, I wear a Size 7.
The 2nd democrap lawfirm to get this. And rightfully so.
It strips all the firms lawyers any all clearances, it removes the firm from all government work.
It does a bit more but those 2 are the big ones. It will finically cripple the law firm and make them unable to even consult an anything with a gov contract, or legal issue in court for anything associate with the government.
No def contract work, no black box work, no labor disputes for confidential work, cannot represent anyone against the gov if a clearance is required to review the evidence etc.
What this EO seems to suggest is, ANY. Contractor that uses Perkins Coie as their legal firm, will lose their government contract - hundreds of companies will be dropping P.C. tomorrow if true
Note that a suspension means a review of whether an individual should retain a clearance. The review may result in a reinstatement of clearance. But if the result is a revocation, it is usually permanent.
Alright. Thanks for the summary. I suspect the average person has never even thought about looking that deeply into how our government gets projects done, or pretends to.
I’m glad Trump and company are performing the due diligence.
Toes will be stepped upon. Improperly feather-bedded retirement plans will be called out/ snuffed out.
I have a child who is a lawyer for another firm and they have secret clearances for work with such projects.
And yes most people have no idea but there are labor disputes on those secret projects sometimes and they need lawyers to work it out.
Trump had four long years to really, REALLY think about how The Great Voter Fraud of 2020 could have happened.
That, and other acts of partisan obstruction.
He figured out the system, of what begets what in Washington.
**I’ve been waiting for the name of John Kerry to be brought up. During Trump’s first term, Kerry made it his business to fly into any part of the world, and try to undo whatever the Trump Administration was trying to do. I hope Kerry doesn’t get a pass from all this. No one seems to enforce the Logan Act anymore, though. Nancy Pelosi also violated that law or policy during the Bush years. Nothing happened to her at all.

I think P-C were the ones filing multiple frivolous lawsuits against Gov Palin after she returned to Alaska to force her to resign or else go totally broke defending herself.
I hope you’re right and they have just gotten what they deserved.

I’m sure they will probably still find work ... in traffic court.
A reminder from Sundance at Conservative Treehouse about the Clinton/Perkins Coie conspiracy against President Trump.
“President Trump Removes Perkins Coie Security Clearance:
It effectively means that any business that requires a security clearance they can’t be involved & the companies trying to get the federal govt business requiring security clearances stands to lose that business if they engage with them.
What about subcontractors with security clearances?
The closest thing to that is Section 3-b and it seems to refer to direct contracts with the Feds.
It looks like there’s a loophole allowing P&C to hire “independent firms” to access deep state records.
