Jeff Clark Is Right: Biden Regime Was A Communist/ Big Law Etc. Coup
Trump, And VDARE.com, Victims. (But He Can Defend Himself)
Very impressed by this 8-part X thread from (at) JeffClarkUS:
1/8 Let me comment on what’s going on with the prominent law firms, often called BigLaw…
2/8 We came dangerously close from 2020-2024 to one party achieving a political monopoly and effectively ending the American Republic, leaving us with a veneer of a Constitution, but in reality a non-Constitution or anti-Constitution dreamed up on a case-by-case basis by activists in robes that the Left planned to pack onto the U.S. Supreme Court and onto the lower courts. The struggles President Trump is having with the courts right now are just part of the aftermath of how close we were to going over the brink.
My much-missed website VDARE.com was/ is a victim of this emerging “political monopoly” in the shape of lawfare from New York State Attorney General Letitia James, unrestrained by state and federal courts..
Clark continues:
3/8 One of the leverage points that led us to that potential political monopoly is a BigLaw monopoly, in turn abetted by a Top 25 Law School faculty monopoly — and indeed by a collegiate and elementary and secondary school ideologic monopoly. The law professors are predominantly on the Left and they brainwash entire generations of students to move to the Left or move yet more to the Left than when they entered law school.
4/8 Then those students populate BigLaw, make partner, and they run the law firms as functional extensions of the Left as well its main party and its NGOs. Virtually all pro bono work is then done to benefit the Left, except a case here or there taken on as a token that is designed to let the firm in question claim on paper to be even-handed...
(Hmmm is this related to the total eclipse of WASP Big Law?)
At VDARE, we were also a victim of this pro bono bait-and-switch. A patriot lawyer long represented us pro-bono until his firm, Covington & Burling, suddenly ordered him to stop.
This really left us in the lurch. It is now extremely hard for patriots, and indeed any Politically Incorrect group e.g. opponents of homosexual marriage, to get legal representation. All this stuff about John Adams representing the British solders accused in the Boston Massacre, once the pride of the American legal profession, has gone down the toilet.
In other words, Jeff Clark is right, politics was/ is achieving command in the legal system—the essence of totalitarianism.
I wonder if Americans realize what drastic measures are required to stop this.
Excellent presentation by Jeff Clark. I'm glad I wrote those pieces for Vdare on law firms Paul, Weiss and then Willkie Farr & Gallagher. There is no end to the possibilities. As long as our law schools, whose accreditation standards are controlled by the American Bar Association, add to the supply of radical lawyers, our country will edge further toward the precipice of extinction, Trump or no Trump.
