“It's against the law for the president to in effect sue himself—and then settle for a huge sum. The court has the power to put a stop to these shenanigans and should do so. We are proud to represent over ​90 members of Congress in making that request,” said Matt Platkin, @PlatkinLLP, and @NormEisen, Democracy Defenders Action, co-counsel for amici.

This AI guy uploaded every single private text message between him and his wife and thought so little of it that he broadcast that fact to the world. If this is how AI execs treat their own data, please tell me again why we should trust how AI companies handle yours.

While I have real concerns about how the Trump Administration would handle reviews of technology, contrary to what paid mouthpieces from the AI industry suggest, government review of potentially dangerous products is a perfectly normal and routine thing, happens every day. And the vast majority of Americans would welcome it. “Nobody wants to see … a world where you have to get permission from the government to release the next version of an AI model,” said Daniel Castro, president of the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation, a think tank supported by Anthropic, Microsoft and other tech companies.

Along with @DDFund_, we @PlatkinLLP have filed a letter urging @SECGov to investigate @ALT5_Sigma for serious compliance failures, governance breakdowns, and troubling financial ties between ALT5 Sigma and World Liberty Financial, a crypto venture linked to President Donald Trump, his family, and his close associates. Last year, ALT5 Sigma, which was formerly an appliance recycling company, purchased $750 million in crypto assets affiliated with the Trump family, and appointed both Eric Trump and Zach Witkoff to its board — all while it was failing to disclose critical information to investors. We are demanding that these issues be investigated to protect investors and ensure that our financial markets are not used as vehicles for undisclosed risk, misconduct, or potential corruption.

Platkin on president who 'took a Sharpie to the 14th Amendment' | NJ Spotlight News njspotlightnews.org/2026/04/platki…

“This is not an academic exercise,” says Matthew Platkin, the former Democratic attorney general of New Jersey, who led a coalition of states in challenging the executive order last year. “The consequences for the people in this country, for our government, both at the federal and state and local levels, and just for the fabric of this nation, would be extraordinary.” motherjones.com/politics/2026/…

This is not controversial: Birthright citizenship has been part of the fabric of this nation since the Civil War — when we settled this debate once and for all. Immigrants born here have enriched this nation throughout our history. They belong here, plain and simple. Presidents are not kings. They cannot rewrite the Constitution with the stroke of a sharpie. As AG, I was proud to lead the litigation defending birthright citizenship and I am grateful for the tremendous advocates who will be before the Court next week. The rule of law will prevail. nytimes.com/2026/03/26/us/…

Great work, @AGRobBonta! Prediction: The Trump Admin’s gutting of antitrust enforcement for corrupt purposes will ultimately result in one of the biggest transfers of economic regulatory power from feds to states in American history. States have the authority. They will use it.

From ⁦@WIRED⁩: “This illegal gambling,” says former New Jersey attorney general Matt Platkin, who recently launched a boutique law firm focused on consumer protection cases. The industry is “unregulated, untaxed, unsupervised,” he adds. wired.com/story/the-poli…

First public filing from @PlatkinLLP with @DDFund_: These transactions raise serious questions about whether policy is driven by private gain. Americans deserve a full, independent investigation.
