Executive Order 14246

This document shows moderate constitutional concerns with an overall threat score of 83/100. Key concerns include: The executive branch is openly punishing a law firm for representing clients and causes the President dislikes, and blacklisting a named individual who once investigated him — converting the coercive apparatus of the state (security clearances, contracting, employment, physical access) into an instrument of retaliation against legal opposition.; The order punishes First Amendment-protected legal representation and political speech by name, without any due process — and federal courts reviewing materially identical orders (Perkins Coie, Jenner, WilmerHale) found they likely violate the First, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments..
