The order calls for the revocation of any security clearances held by any member of the law firm as well as the termination of any government contracts.

President Donald Trump signed another executive order targeting a specific law firm that he deems to be working against American interests.

The March 25 order is directed at Jenner & Block LLP, the law firm that employed Andrew Weissman, a former federal prosecutor who was on special counsel Robert Muellerโ€™s legal team from 2017 to 2019.

The order calls for the revocation of any security clearances held by any member of the law firm as well as the termination of any contracts between the firm and any government agency.

โ€œItโ€™s a law firm thatโ€™s engaged in invidious, racially and sexually discriminatory practices,โ€ White House staff secretary Will Scharf said. โ€Itโ€™s also a law firm that has participated in the weaponization of the legal system against American principles and values.โ€

The executive order titled, Addressing Risks from Jenner and Block, also accuses the law firm of condoning partisan โ€œlawfare,โ€ supporting efforts to prevent the deportation of violent illegal immigrants, and refusing to โ€œaccept the biological reality of sex.โ€

Scharf said the firmโ€™s association with Weissman is one of the reasons the order was issued.

โ€œJenner was โ€™thrilled’ to re-hire the unethical Andrew Weissmann after his time engaging in partisan prosecution as part of Robert Muellerโ€™s entirely unjustified investigation,โ€ the executive order states.

โ€œThe numerous reports of Weissmanโ€™s dishonesty, including pursuit of nonexistent crimes, bribery to foreign nationals, and overt demand that the Federal Government pursue a political agenda against me, is a concerning indictment of Jennerโ€™s values and priorities.โ€

A spokesperson for Jenner & Block said the firm โ€œhas had a long history representing clients, paid and pro bono, in their most difficult matters since 1914.โ€ 

โ€œToday, we have been named in an Executive Order similar to one which has already been declared unconstitutional by a federal court,โ€ the spokesperson told The Epoch Times in an email.

โ€œWe remain focused on serving and safeguarding our clientsโ€™ interests with the dedication, integrity, and expertise that has defined our firm for more than one hundred years and will pursue all appropriate remedies.โ€
