Wednesday June 10, 2026 Florida Sues OpenAI Over AI Risks
The Anti-Weaponization Fund started as a $10 billion lawsuit Trump filed against the IRS in his personal capacity and ended as a $1.776 billion slush fund with no appeals, no transparency, and a tax immunity addendum that looks a lot like a self-pardon. Tad DeHaven and Daniel Greenberg join Molly Nixon to unpack what happened and why it should alarm everyone. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Break out the tin foil hats, movie theater popcorn, and lots of pins — this one's a doozy. In Part Two, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell break down one of the strangest lawsuits they've ever seen: Weldon Boyd, the man who shot and killed Scott Spivey, is suing attorney Mark Tinsley. The claim? That Tinsley manufactured a "false narrative" and chased media attention for his own "celebrity status" and "self-aggrandizement" (a phrase used nine times, for the record). With a June 10 motions hearing looming, we unpack Tinsley's motion to dismiss, a bizarre Netflix subpoena for a documentary that doesn't exist, and a fishing-expedition motion to compel naming nineteen people — including the governor and… Mandy, Liz & Beth. Sound familiar? We connect the dots between this case and the coordinated legal war launched against LUNASHARK® in November 2025. Because if we've learned anything in five years, it's that there are no coincidences. Let's Dive In…

This week's lineup is loaded. The FTC just opened its first real antitrust investigation into fertilizer pricing, a Wisconsin farmer took the USDA to court over discrimination and won, and cattle prices are sitting at record highs while the screwworm threat creeps toward the border. Plus AI moving into the field, a hard look at why everybody copying everybody is killing small ag, and our Made in America pick. In this episode we get into the FTC fertilizer antitrust investigation, including why prices jumped overnight with no supply change and how that seems dirty. We break down the USDA discrimination settlement and how dairy farmer Adam Faust ended race- and sex-based preferences in federal farm programs like EQIP, loan guarantees, and Dairy Margin Coverage. We talk record cattle prices and the New World screwworm, with beef at all-time highs, the herd at a 75-year low, and the parasite Texas declared a disaster over. We dig into AI in agriculture, from cutting herbicide use 70% in the field to the data center land grab eating up rural farmland, water, and power. We get into why an oversaturated market is a race to the bottom for small farm operations and how to actually stand out instead of copying the crowd. We run our Top 3 occupations besides farming, hand out our Made in America pick with Crocodile Cloth, and close it out with a few words on glyphosate, Shawn Ryan, and the conversation the loudest critics keep dodging. Real talk from real farmers, row crops, cattle, and everything in between. New episodes weekly. Follow on Spotify so you never miss one. Go check out Agzaga! It is the ultimate online farm store.

In this episode, we kick things off with a major private equity play in the intermodal freight space. Open Road Ventures announced it has acquired Double-Stack Logistics, an intermodal freight broker with direct rail relationships and a fleet of over 150 containers. The company specializes in converting freight that typically moves over the road into intermodal shipments, and the backing will allow Double-Stack to expand its service offering and North American footprint. Next, we explore a massive break for drivers hauling fertilizer as FMCSA grants hours-of-service waivers across 34 states to ease a critical squeeze on fertilizer supplies. Running from May 26 through August 26, the waiver allows drivers to operate for sixteen hours in a twenty-four-hour period—far beyond the standard eleven-hour limit—and eliminates the electronic logging device requirement, giving farmers the narrow window they need to get fertilizer applied during spring planting season. Finally, we unpack a bitter legal battle in the air cargo charter market where GlobalX Airlines is suing Ascent Global Logistics for $30 million, alleging the former investment partner steered charter work to its own subsidiary. According to the complaint, Ascent assigned hundreds of charters per month worth up to $15 million to USA Jet Airlines while only referring about $1 million in flights to GlobalX over three years, a stark breach of their exclusive freight brokerage agreement.

Tuesday June 2, 2026 California AG Sues Chome Holdings (Formerly 23andMe) Over Data Breach
This Day in Legal History: The Indian Citizenship Act of 1924On this day in 1924, President Calvin Coolidge signed the Indian Citizenship Act, also called the Snyder Act, declaring that all Native Americans born within the territorial limits of the United States were U.S. citizens. It is one of those laws that sounds, in retrospect, like it cannot possibly have been necessary — and yet it was. For most of the country's first 150 years, the federal government treated Native people as members of separate sovereign nations whose status under American law was, at best, ambiguous. Earlier vehicles for citizenship — the Fourteenth Amendment, the Dawes Act, military service in World War I — had reached only some Native people, and a string of Supreme Court decisions had taken the position that being born inside the United States to a member of a tribe did not, on its own, make a person a citizen.The Snyder Act fixed that with a single sentence.What it did not fix was voting: many states continued to bar Native citizens from the ballot for decades afterward, on a variety of pretexts that were eventually struck down one by one. The Act also did not affect tribal citizenship — Native people are dual citizens of their tribe and the United States, which is part of why federal Indian law continues to occupy a separate doctrinal universe. June 2 is a quietly important date on the calendar of American citizenship, and a reminder that the seemingly obvious questions of who counts as an American have, for long stretches of our history, not been obvious at all.Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier announced Monday that his office has filed a civil lawsuit against OpenAI and its CEO Sam Altman, arguing that the company is misleading parents about the safety of ChatGPT and pointing to incidents in which young users were allegedly nudged toward violence by the chatbot. The complaint follows a criminal investigation Uthmeier's office opened in April, after a deadly mass shooting at Florida State University in 2025 that the AG says ChatGPT helped facilitate. Florida is asking for civil penalties and an order forcing OpenAI to redesign the product, including adding meaningful parental controls.The legal angle here is essentially a state consumer-protection theory: a state attorney general claiming that the company's marketing of a product as safe-for-kids is deceptive, and that the company is therefore on the hook under the state's unfair-trade laws. Whether that survives a motion to dismiss is going to depend a lot on whether the court treats ChatGPT as a “product” in the traditional sense — software has, for decades, gotten more leeway than physical products under product-liability law, and Section 230 of the federal Communications Decency Act has historically immunized platforms for what users post.The new wrinkle is that generative AI doesn't fit neatly into either bucket — ChatGPT produces its own output rather than hosting somebody else's — and several courts are now beginning to grapple with that distinction. Expect this case to be one of the early test cases for how AI companies get sued in the U.S.Florida AG Sues OpenAI, Says ChatGPT Spurs Violence | Law360The Supreme Court on Monday declined to hear an appeal from asbestos victims who had challenged a corporate bankruptcy tactic known as the “Texas Two-Step” — leaving in place a Fourth Circuit ruling that lets companies use the maneuver to corral mass-tort claims into bankruptcy court.The Two-Step works like this: a healthy company splits itself into two using a Texas state-law provision that allows divisional mergers, dumps its asbestos or talc or opioid liabilities into the newly created spinoff, and then puts only the spinoff into Chapter 11. The result is that injury claimants get herded into a bankruptcy proceeding where their leverage is sharply limited, even though the parent company that actually caused the harm is still solvent and operating.The case the Supreme Court turned away involved Bestwall, a spinoff of Georgia-Pacific that has been in Chapter 11 since 2017. The Third Circuit threw out a similar Johnson & Johnson talc-unit bankruptcy in 2023 on the ground that the spinoff wasn't actually in financial distress, but the Fourth Circuit went the other way in this case, and the Supreme Court's denial of review leaves that split standing for now. The bigger picture: a powerful settlement-shaping tool stays on the menu for corporate defendants facing waves of mass-tort litigation, and the next big talc, opioid, or asbestos defendant looking to manage a docket of claims now knows the Two-Step is at least available in the Fourth Circuit.Justices Won't Hear Challenge To ‘Texas Two-Step' Ch. 11 | Law360A group of IKEA customers filed a proposed class action against the Swedish retailer Monday in U.S. federal court, arguing that they overpaid for furniture during the period when President Trump's import tariffs were in effect — tariffs that the Supreme Court has since struck down — and that they are entitled to a share of the refunds the company will now collect from the federal government. It is one of the first big consumer-side cases to follow the Supreme Court's tariff ruling, and the legal theory is novel: importers paid the tariffs, then passed those costs through to consumers in the form of higher sticker prices, and now that the government is sending refunds back to importers, the customers who effectively bore the cost are asking for a piece of that money.Some major shippers like FedEx and UPS have already publicly committed to passing tariff refunds back to their customers; IKEA, the suit alleges, has not. Whether the claim survives depends largely on whether the court is willing to treat the relationship between retailer and customer as something like a constructive trust or unjust enrichment, rather than an arm's-length sale at a final price. If even one of these cases succeeds, expect copycat suits against every other large importer that quietly built tariff costs into retail prices over the last several years.IKEA customers sue for share of Trump tariff refunds | Reuters This is a public episode.

Big Tech censorship never really stopped. Emmy-winning “The Sopranos” star Drea de Matteo and investigative journalist Sarah Westall are fighting back. Westall has filed a landmark federal lawsuit against Google, YouTube, and the U.S. government, alleging a coordinated government-tech campaign to suppress her speech – the first in American legal history to preemptively challenge the structural bias of the 9th Circuit in Big Tech cases. Westall breaks down how Google allegedly monetized fake, defamatory impersonator channels designed to destroy her professional reputation. Drea de Matteo discusses her UltraFree podcast and clothing line dedicated to free speech, speaks about her personal Hamptons meeting with John F. Kennedy Jr., and asks why the FBI can tally exactly how many cars are stolen every year… but not how many children were trafficked – something that “should bother everyone.” Drea de Matteo is an Emmy Award-winning actress known for her role on The Sopranos. She hosts the ULTRAFREE Podcast and launched ULTRAFREE, a clothing line dedicated to free speech and free thinking.

1. Support for Law Enforcement during Police Week Highlights bipartisan legislation to improve benefits for officers and their families. A specific bill aims to: Speed up death/disability benefit decisions (within 270 days). Expand eligibility to partially disabled officers. Core message: Police deserve greater respect, faster support, and fulfilled government commitments. 2. Fixing Bureaucratic Delays The current system for officer benefits is described as slow and inefficient, with cases delayed for years. The proposed reforms are framed as a common-sense fix to government inefficiency. Key theme: Government failure vs. responsibility to public servants. 3. “Trey’s Law” (Child Sexual Abuse Reform) Inspired by a victim who was silenced by a legal non-disclosure agreement (NDA). The law would: Ban NDAs that silence child sexual abuse victims. Ensure victims can speak freely about their abuse. Already passed in multiple states; advancing federally. Central idea: Protect victims and prevent legal systems from enabling abuse. 4. Human Rights Pressure on China A bipartisan Senate resolution calls on the U.S. President to: Advocate for release of political prisoners in China. Focus especially on: Religious leaders (Christian pastors) Pro-democracy activist Jimmy Lai Passed unanimously (100–0), signaling strong political unity. Strategy: Use unified U.S. political pressure as leverage in foreign diplomacy. 5. Foreign Policy Goals with China Broader objectives mentioned: Encourage China to influence Iran. Expand U.S. trade (e.g., agriculture, Boeing deals). Promote American economic interests. 6. Criticism of The New York Times & Israel Lawsuit Israel is suing The New York Times for defamation.
