The president has signed an executive order targeting the law firm Jenner and Block because it is involved in a court case challenging his executive order banning gender-affirming care for transgender youth. The law firm denounced the order, but it's just the latest example of the president persecuting legal firms that oppose his illegal actions.

Jenner and Block are working on behalf of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) to block the president's ban on gender-affirming care. The ban prohibits the federal government from funding, promoting, or supporting gender-affirming care for people under age 19 in any way. This included cutting-off funds — pre-approved by Congress — for any medical schools or institutions that research, provide, or teach about gender-affirming care.

The ACLU filed a lawsuit against the gender-affirming care ban. The lawsuit accused the president of trying to "unconstitutionally usurp congressional authority by withholding lawfully appropriated federal funds." The lawsuit also said that the president sought to violate the rights of trans youth by "depriving them of necessary medical care" solely on the basis of their gender assigned at birth and their transgender status, PBS reported.

And so it goes - constant intimidation and threats - and ignoring the rule of law and challenging institutions to do something about it - which they must - but it's not easy as their method is to attack relenlessly.
