That won’t go down well at the firm! If any partners are looking for property in Bali – do get in touch !
Above The Law
The Department of Education isn’t the only institution targeted for attack by the incoming administration. Kash Patel, President-elect Donald Trump’s expected nominee for directing the FBI, also has his sights on at least one law firm. Be on high alert if you’re a member of the partnership at Perkins Coie:
Other notables include Kamala Harris, Eric Holder, Christopher Wray (current Director of the FBI and former partner at King & Spalding), and more. This not-so subtle piece of McCarthyism for our generation comes from Patel’s book “Government Gangsters: The Deep State, the Truth, and the Battle for Our Democracy.” It was released in September of last year, but interest in the book came back to the fore after President-elect Trump announced he’d nominate Patel to direct the FBI. Strange announcement considering Wray is supposed to have his job until 2027, but nothing stepping down or getting fired by Trump wouldn’t fix.
Will other Biglaw firms be labeled as enemies of the state? Only time will tell; we’ve got a very interesting four years ahead of us.
