Talk about a Catch-22.
Can't earn $$$ legally without permit.
Can't get permit without $$$.
Cruel.
How could this possibly go wrong?

Itβs called βAmerican Nightmare.β I painted it in 2019 when immigrant families were being caged, tortured, and torn apart by the first Trump administration. Now itβs 2025 and we are building more cages, hiring more secret police, and kidnapping people off the streets. Soβ¦happy 4th I guess

This decision will have horrific consequences. The Constitution's promises should not come with asterisks, and courts must retain the power to say to any government actor: the law applies to you, completely and without exception.

βWe lawyers, just like the President, swear an oath to support and protect the Constitution. If a president can with impunity seek to destroy a law firm because of the clients it represents, then the rule of law itself is in grave danger.β - Susman Godfrey
12.04.2025 18:11 β π 22 π 5 π¬ 2 π 0Screenshot of one paragraph of complaint reading β 5. Susman Godfrey lawyers recognize that the highest calling of a lawyer is our duty to our Constitution and to the rule of law. We cannot do something on behalf of our clients that imperils the rule of law. That is why Susman Godfrey stands firm against this plainly unconstitutional order: because it is so dangerous to the rule of law. Though no president has the power to unilaterally impose these kinds of punishments directly on any organization or person, it is particularly significant that, in this case, President Trump is trying to exact revenge on a law firm. Because we are a government of laws, and not men, lawyers hold a special place in protecting our constitutional order. We lawyers, just like the President, swear an oath to support and protect the Constitution. If a president can with impunity seek to destroy a law firm because of the clients it represents, then the rule of law itself is in grave danger.β
