  1. He is certainly entitled to his First Amendment rights. He may not be entitled to represent ICE as their advocate before the court. Attorneys have special rules of professionalism that are designed to protect their clients, and to prevent the opposing party from being able to leverage their personal conduct against their clients. This stuff is obscure to you, huh?

  3. ​ @DonaldJoeKennedy  You've got that wrong again. He is certainly entitled to his First Amendment rights. He may not be entitled to represent ICE as their advocate before the court. Attorneys have special rules of professionalism that are designed to protect their clients, and to prevent the opposing party from being able to leverage their personal conduct against their clients. The client -- in this case ICE -- is not supposed to be forced to run that risk. Also, anyone can fire their lawyer for any reason. If you don't like that they voted for Kamala, you can fire them. If you object to their web page design or their tweets, ditto.

  4. Can you be serious? This isn't a mailroom clerk, it is the attorney representing the government before the court. Besides, anyone can fire their attorney for just about any reason.

  5. Two things: no one is entitled to represent ICE as their advocate before the court. Attorneys have special rules of professionalism that are designed to protect their clients, and to prevent the opposing party from being able to leverage the lawyer's personal conduct against the client. Second, and more broadly, anyone can fire their lawyer for any reason. You don't like his social media posts? You can fire him. The government is not to be placed in an inferior position to ordinary individuals with respect to choice of counsel. That is the First Amendment law in the government workplace in general. There is more protection than in the private sector, obviously, but it can't be so much that it puts the government at a disadvantage.

  6. Anyone can also fire their lawyer for any reason. No one is entitled to be your advocate before the court.

  7. Attorneys have special rules of professionalism that are designed to protect their clients, and to prevent the opposing party from being able to leverage their personal conduct against their clients. These exist prior to there being any risk of compromising their clients' rights. The client (ICE) is not supposed to have to run that risk.
