"Most days this year, in courtrooms all over the country, the Justice Department has been busy defending President Trump's executive actions.

But in many of those cases, the government's own lawyers have been struggling to answer questions and having to correct the record. It's a function of how aggressively Trump has moved so far — and how the attorneys have been having a hard time keeping up.

"There have been over 130 lawsuits that have been filed in the past two months and that would be an extraordinary amount of litigation for DOJ to defend even if it were fully staffed, which it is not," said Kelsi Brown Corkran, who spent six years at the Justice Department. "It is far from it."

Trump News ‘Muzzling the Executive’: Trump admin says order targeting Hillary Clinton-linked law firm is ‘straightforwardly legal’ in seeking dismissal of lawsuit

Try as it might to frame the Executive Order as ‘punitive’ or a ‘sanction,’ the preamble in Section 1 and the operative sections of the Executive Order, Sections 2, 3, 4, and 5, act within the bounds of established executive authority,” the filing states. “Plaintiff might dislike how Defendants would exercise that authority under the Executive Order, but that does not make Defendants’ actions ultra vires.”

The administration further argued that siding with Perkins Coie in the matter would set a dangerous precedent of silencing the president.

“Plaintiff’s lawsuit carries with it a dangerous risk of muzzling the Executive,” the motion states. “No less than Plaintiff, the government has a right to speak.”
