Paul Weiss & 2 other #LawFirms named by the #FTC on Friday — Skadden Arps & Latham & Watkins — reached deals with the White House to void or sidestep such orders, pledging millions of dollars in free #legal work to mutually-supported causes with the #Trump admin.

The #Trump admin has eliminated DEI-related programs in the government. Several private firms have also rolled back such initiatives.

The #FTC letters were addressed to many of the country's largest & most profitable firms. 3 of them — Paul Weiss, WilmerHale & Perkins Coie — were targeted last year by Trump executive orders that threatened their business practices, citing in part their allegedly discriminatory hiring practices.

“White people were very badly treated, where they did extremely well & they were not invited to go into a university to college,” #Trump said, an apparent reference to #AffirmativeAction in college admissions. “So I would say in that way, I think it was unfair in certain cases.”

Wyoming Supreme Court keeps abortion legal, strikes down pill ban

Abortion will remain legal in Wyoming after the state Supreme Court struck down two laws that include the nation’s first explicit ban on abortion pills. The justices sided with the state’s only abortion clinic and others Tuesday in ruling that the laws violate the Wyoming Constitution. A lower court judge struck down the laws in 2024, ruling they violate a constitutional amendment that says competent adults have the right to make their own health care decisions. Earlier, the same judge blocked the laws from taking effect. Wyoming sought to join 13 states that have banned abortion at all stages of pregnancy since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in 2022.

"There’s a flooding of the zone with a particular kind of culture. For many years, Republicans have reviled the left for allegedly forcing our elitism down their throats. What Donald and the Trump regime are doing is remaking everything in the image of WWE or ultimate fighting or monster trucks."
