They aren’t doing anything about it. And that’s the problem.
‘And even if they did, congress won’t allow it.’
But it would be be better if they did. Both groups seem to be waiting for the other because they’re afraid of the orange baboon.
Here’s a list of what the firms are doing about it:
- Capitulation
A lot of firms are developing plans in secret to avoid the eye of Sauron right now.
Ah yes, their super-secret plans to…sue. In a rigged court system. That ultimately leads to a Supreme Court that has already declared Trump a king in all but name with almost unchecked power.
I’m sure we’ll hear a lot about that in the future. And by “a lot”, I mean nothing.

Here is what I was talking about.
These are the avenues in which we’ve described our just system. If we dont use them first to prove their illegitimacy, then our own teardown is not validated. These lawsuits build precedence so that when we, like Germany, do away with our dictator, the society that arises from it will have better tools to work with legally.
But I do agree and empathize that the pitchforks and torches should already be out. A whole lot of people just lost their retirements.
Germany didn’t do away with its dictator; he did away with himself. Mussolini would be a better example.
Italy is not exactly okay right now with crawling back to the right. Germany was for a while and it might be more apt because no one is going to touch Trump, in reality.
That’s not a “secret plan”. That’s doing what they should have done the minute these EOs were signed.
Silence doesnt mean secrecy. We the People should be loud. These law firms should shut up and draft plans. They shouldn’t broadcast their intentions to the regime, let the filings do that.

Actually, I believe it’s the exact opposite. We the people do not have the power and resources to be loud. We the people can easily be disappeared to El Salvador’s prison system. We the people elected our officials and gave them the power to be loud. And when they fail – and they have failed – we should hope that our representatives in the legal system, who have years of knowledge, billions of dollars and vast resources to use those resources to fight back. We the people being the ones that have to resort to revolting should be the last option after everything else has been exhausted, not the first. These people have unlimited resources, billions of dollars, and vast swaths of legal knowledge. Not us.
Law firms should have had motions filed before the ink to sign the EOs targeting them was even dry. But instead, they’re going to Trump and offering him hundreds of millions of free legal services before he even targets them. They’re not fighting Trump. They’re tripping over each other in a race to see which ones can capitulate to him first.
They shouldn’t broadcast their intentions to the regime, let the filings do that.
Bullshit. 100% Grade A, Trump-approved bullshit.
Their intentions should be one thing. Defending our justice system against these exact acts. And they should be broadcasting those intentions on every form of media that exists, daily. “We intend to fight you in court through this and force our court system to either admitting their intentions of ceding even more power to Trump and letting this country fall into a dictatorship by allowing Trump to continue doing this, or standing up for the Constitution and the rule of law.”
They should be broadcasting that daily.
