This is a 'capitalism-consciousness' trial inspired by G.I. Joe (Hasbro/Marvel) comics and the capitalism-governance films Three Kings and Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps.
It also references the anarchism Devil's Advocate Marvel Comics character Dark Phoenix (an anti-heroine who serves here as a 'modernism-omen Portia' figurine).

PHOENIX: The G.I. Joes used guerilla tactics against Cobra!
LAWYER: Cobra was a super-terrorist organization that needed to be stopped.
PHOENIX: The Joe ninja-assassin 'Snake-Eyes' was a card-shark!
LAWYER: Snake-Eyes did what he had to do to unfurl Cobra Commander's 'torture-casino.'
PHOENIX: The Americans the Joes defended were profiteers and gamblers...
LAWYER: The G.I. Joes defended those too meek to defend themselves!
PHOENIX: The Joes hoisted a casino-celebrity as 'affirmed world leader.'
LAWYER: U.S. President Donald Trump is fully-adept at managerial-politics.
PHOENIX: Washington, D.C. is a den for apologetics...
LAWYER: I may be a lawyer (only), but I understand 'civics mandates.'
PHOENIX: Democracy was compromised to 'save' democracy.
LAWYER: Sometimes to defeat McCarthyism, you have to 'censor' the media.
PHOENIX: Censorship was used as a bandage to deal with fear of the truth!
LAWYER: Some 'truths' are better left unsaid (e.g., "The American Dream is a risk").
PHOENIX: We'll see what historians of the future say about the Gulf War.
LAWYER: The Gulf War was petroleum-driven, yes, but it created fresh perspectives.
PHOENIX: Perhaps Americans will be redeemed someday...by Bugsy!
LAWYER: The 'founding-father' of Las Vegas is a diplomat of commerce (and peace!).
