Donald Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday punishing the law firm that helped Dominion Voting Systems obtain a $787.5m settlement from Fox for lies about the 2020 election.

The order against the firm, Susman Godfrey, marks the latest effort by the president to punish attorneys and firms who have opposed his interests.

The order seeks to harm the firm by limiting its attorneys from accessing government buildings, revoking security clearances and essentially making it impossible for it to represent anyone who has business before the federal government.

    Can’t wait for the Brawndo billboards on the White House lawn.

    Did you forget about the Tesla infomercial they filmed there?

      Forgot about that. Or the Resolute Desk to advertise beans. Even Nick Cage treated the desk with more respect in National Treasure.
