Matt Blaze on Nostr: Buried in the avalanche of vengeful executive orders and executive social media posts ...

Buried in the avalanche of vengeful executive orders and executive social media posts is the fact that Trump has revoked the security clearances of several lawyers in private practice who specialize in national security cases (Mark Zaid, etc). No reasons given other than that he doesn't like positions they've taken or clients they represent (which, of course, is their job).

Especially if they represent criminal defendants, the 6th Amendment implications are interesting.
