Trump's Legal Battles, Poll Numbers, and Kennedy Center Controversy

The legal world is in shock after the powerful law firm Paul Weiss agreed to provide $40 million

in free legal work for Trump’s administration and eliminate its diversity policies.

In response, Trump withdrew an executive order that had targeted the firm.

This move has sparked outrage, with some lawyers calling it 'despicable' and fearing it will embolden Trump to

pressure more firms.

Rachel Cohen, an associate at another firm, resigned in protest, saying, 'We do not have time.

It is now or never.' A new Fox News poll shows Trump’s approval rating at 49%, with 51%

disapproving.

While Republicans overwhelmingly support him, Democrats are just as strongly opposed.

Independents are leaning negative, especially over concerns about the economy and inflation.

Experts say if inflation eases, Trump’s numbers could improve, but for now, the nation remains deeply divided.

Trump claimed he didn’t sign the proclamation invoking the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelan migrants, despite his

signature appearing on the document.

He shifted responsibility to Secretary of State Marco Rubio, saying, 'Other people handled it.' A judge is now

investigating whether the administration violated court orders by continuing deportations despite a legal block.

A leaked memo reveals Trump ordered Attorney General Pam Bondi to flag law firms filing lawsuits against his

administration for potential punitive actions, including revoking security clearances.

Legal experts warn this could have a chilling effect on firms willing to challenge the government, with one

lawyer saying, 'Trump is pushing the limits of everything.' Trump, now the board chair of the Kennedy Center,

is pushing for a season featuring 'Cats' and 'Phantom of the Opera,' despite logistical challenges.

He also wants to cut labor costs and redesign the venue.

Critics argue his vision is unrealistic and could alienate traditional Kennedy Center audiences.

Meanwhile, major productions like 'Hamilton' have already pulled out.
