Fun fact: the parents of this MS AG devoted a significant chunk of their lives to relocating and lovingly restoring the house owned by the founder of the first KKK, Nathan Bedford Forrest, so that rich white people (including possibly Antonio Scalia) could stay in it during their hunting vacations.

WilmerHale has opted to fight: "The President’s sweeping attack on WilmerHale (and other firms) is unprecedented
