The judge based her decision on what was presented. It is laughable because she has no jurisdiction over his reason. It is simple as that.

Untrue. The judge ruling this decision wasn't absolute is relevant to supa saying the decision is absolute.

At the end of the day this argument is really silly. Trump has the authority to remove the law firms security clearance regardless of what he or his administration has said or done. You can spin it more ways than a top but it will not matter.

But let's explore your jump to assignment of Constitutional breach to the Executive Branch, which btw is a habitual flaw in assumption on your part. Your arguments begin and end with the consistent mispresumption the Judicial Branch does not violate the Constitution. So let's break down the counter.
(a) The executive branch controls the clearance process entirely.
(b) Congress has oversight on how Executive agencies manage clearance.
(c) Congress has not raised issue with Trump's actions.
(d) A & B are the Constitutional considerations.
(e) To the extent the Judicial Branch desires to subvert A, and disregard B/C, therein lies the Constitutional violation.

This is not how our system has worked since Marbury v. Madison

As defined by English Common Law is more accurate.

Only if you believe the incorrect paradigm you constructed, ESPECIALLY in the arena of Constitutional violation.
Congress has no direct oversight over the Executive, and has only the limited ability to change the laws at issue. However, in the realms of Constitutional violation by the Executive or the Executive exceeding the statutory authority granted by Congress, Congress has no role and no power to respond.
If the Executive does not believe it's limited by the Constitution, what could Congress even do? If you want to argue impeachment-removal (which is somewhat speculative as that violation is specifically not "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors"), what binds the President to agree and follow Congress in that instance? Whatever motivation the President had to violate the Constitution could just as easily apply to impeachment and removal as well.

Perkins Coie, Howell wrote, is neither employed by the government nor a contractor with it, but is instead a "law firm representing some clients disliked by the president, engaging in some litigation seeking results disliked by the president, and operating its business, in part, in a manner disliked by the president."
If they're not a government employed lawfirm or contractor, why should they be allowed to have security clearances and have free access to Federal office buildings? Make that make sense.

I believe it's dealing with representation of people in scenarios involving information requiring the clearance.
Example: Trump's criminal defense lawyers for the Florida federal prosecution

U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon took one of her first substantive steps Thursday in Donald Trump’s prosecution for amassing military secrets at his Mar-a-Lago estate.
In a brief order, Cannon required all attorneys in the case — for Trump as well as his longtime valet, Walt Nauta, who is charged alongside him as an alleged co-conspirator — to contact the Justice Department about obtaining security clearances. The same instructions apply to any “forthcoming” attorneys, the judge said.

The fact that Congress has pretzelled itself into a completely dysfunctional, thereby weakened, body is for Congress itself to correct. But with weakness comes void of authority. With the modern Legislative Branch void comes a natural fight by the Exec and/orJudiciary to seize LB power and in-fill extra-constitutionally.

It really is a case of attacking firms who represents clients and causes he doesn’t like. That should give everyone
a reason to be concerned. There will be a Democrat in office one day.

Do they?
Again, is this "treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors"?
Again, assuming the answer to above is "Yes", if the President is already ignoring the Constitution, why would he start following it with the impeachment-removal process?
I already posted that in the post to which you replied.
