JUST IN: IT JUST HAPPENED: Trump Admits at the DOJ that ALL His Lawyers Quit Defending Him⚡
Donald Trump has reached one of the most humiliating moments of his legal saga. In official court filings, it’s now clear that his legal defense is collapsing from the inside. Since November, 69 out of 110 government lawyers defending Trump-era policies have quit — nearly two-thirds of the team. These weren’t junior staff. Many were senior, veteran DOJ lawyers who served under both Republican and Democratic administrations.
Why are they leaving? Not politics — ethics. Lawyers fear being pressured to mislead judges, defend unconstitutional actions, or risk their professional licenses. One former attorney said they refused to participate in what they saw as the destruction of the constitutional system.
As experienced lawyers flee, Trump is replacing them with loyalists who lack courtroom expertise. The result? Cases dismissed, judges openly criticizing incompetence, and the Justice Department’s credibility collapsing.
When even paid professionals refuse to defend you, it says everything.
This isn’t politics anymore — it’s a legal meltdown.
