U.S. President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday suspending security clearances for lawyers and other employees at New York law firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison, and restricting their access to federal buildings and officials.
The article discusses former President Donald Trump's legal actions against the law firm Paul Weiss, which represents Special Counsel Jack Smith.

This legal maneuver is part of a broader strategy by Trump to challenge the investigations against him, arguing that they are politically motivated.
