Trump Targets Covington Law Firm Over Its Work With Jack Smith

President Donald Trump plans to cancel security clearances and government work for Covington & Burling because the law firm has aided special counsel Jack Smith.

Trump took the action Tuesday through a memo he signed in the Oval Office. He said he was acting against “the weaponization of our system by law firms—even pro bono work they’re doing—just in order to clog up government, stop government.”
