Lawyers who worked with former President Obama have formed a nonprofit called United to Protect Democracy, which aims at filing lawsuits against President Trump's administration.

The Washington Free Beacon reports the group plans to investigate Trump, give information to the press to build the pressure for Congressional investigations, and eventually file lawsuits on a regular basis.

Former associate White House counsel Ian Bassin, leader of the group, reportedly received support from a "huge network" of other Obama lawyers.

Politico reported that his group had a $1.5 million operating budget.

United to Protect Democracy has already filed 50 Freedom of Information Act requests, and seeks to create a place for whistleblowers in the Trump administration.
