Episode description
Eriq Gardner joins Peter to unpack Donald Trump’s ongoing crusade against blue-chip law firms.

Eriq explains the chilling effect on the legal world, as firms shy away from taking meritorious cases against the government, worried that challenging Trump could put their business, and future, on the line.
