"Trump's Potential Legal Team for a Second Term: Allies Seek a Fresh Approach"

Allies of former President Donald Trump are preparing to populate a potential second Trump administration with a new breed of right-wing lawyer, aiming to reduce the chances of politically appointed lawyers frustrating a more radical White House agenda. These allies, including Stephen Miller and John McEntee, are drawing up lists of lawyers they view as ideologically and temperamentally suited to serve in a second Trump administration, separate from the influential conservative legal network, the Federalist Society. They seek lawyers committed to Trump's "America First" ideology and willing to use unconventional legal theories to advance his cause. This shift reflects a significant break within the conservative movement and an effort to take control of the government in a way unseen in modern presidential history.
