  1. Times of India | Who is William Savitt? Sam Altman hires lawyer who beat Elon Musk once before

    AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

    William Savitt, a senior partner at the prestigious firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, is now leading Sam Altman’s legal team in a high‑stakes federal lawsuit in Oakland that pits OpenAI against Elon Musk, who claims Altman turned the originally nonprofit venture into a profit‑driven company. Savitt, renowned for his courtroom skill, previously forced Musk to complete the multibillion‑dollar Twitter acquisition in 2022 after Musk tried to back out, and he is leveraging that experience to argue that Musk’s suit is competitive rather than principled, aimed at weakening OpenAI to benefit his own AI firm, xAI. Aside from his landmark corporate work, Savitt’s unconventional background includes playing in rock bands, driving a taxi, and writing for magazines before earning a Columbia degree, clerking for Judge Pierre Leval and Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and spending three decades handling complex mergers, shareholder disputes, and Delaware corporate law—all while keeping guitars in his office and recording music in his spare time.

  9. #RBG’s family bitterly opposed the ads. #RuthBaderGinsburg’s granddaughter, Clara Spera, said in a statement in Oct that the family condemned the use of her grandmother’s name & that doing so to “support Donald Trump’s re-election campaign, & specifically to suggest that she would approve of his position on abortion, is nothing short of appalling.”

  10. During the #election, the #ElonMusk funded PAC had run ads arguing that Trump’s position on abortion was not dissimilar from that of Justice Ginsburg, a #feminist icon. “Great Minds Think Alike,” read the text on the super PAC’s website, featuring twin large photos of #Trump & Justice #RuthBaderGinsburg, who died in 2020.

  11. The sum is a fraction of #ElonMusk’s wealth. But it is nonetheless a staggering amount from a single donor, who poured the cash into allied groups & is now playing a role in helping shape the next admin.

    One of #Musk’s most brazen moves — which emerged only on Thurs — was spending $20M to prop up a super PAC that was named after #RuthBaderGinsburg, the late liberal #SCOTUS justice, but that sought to help #Trump….

  17. The group…called #RBG PAC…came into existence only days ago, & began to spend $20M on Fri in support of #Trump, acc/to federal records. The group posted 2 #abortion-themed ads focused on the #TrumpLies that he would oppose a federal #AbortionBan.

    The group’s paperwork was signed by #MayMailman, who worked in the WH & who is now director of the *Independent Women’s* Law Center. She did not respond to a request for comment Fri.

  18. #Trump installed 3 *conservative* justices to #SCOTUS during his time in office, replacing #RuthBaderGinsburg as well as Antonin Scalia & Anthony Kennedy. That swing toward a conservative 6-3 majority led directly to the axing of nationwide #AbortionRights established in #RoeVWade. He has also said he will vote against a ballot measure in his home state of Florida that would enshrine #abortion protections in the state constitution.

  19. #RuthBaderGinsburg herself publicly denounced #Trump in an interview w/the NYT prior to his first term.

    “I can’t imagine what this place would be — I can’t imagine what the country would be — with Donald Trump as our president," she said at the time. "For the country, it could be four years. For the court, it could be — I don’t even want to contemplate that."

  20. “The #RBG PAC has no connection to the Ginsburg family & is an affront to my late grandmother’s legacy,” #AbortionRights attorney & #RuthBaderGinsburg’s granddaughter Clara Spera said in a statement to the NYT. “The use of her name & image to support Donald #Trump’s re-election campaign, & specifically to suggest that she would approve of his position on #abortion, is nothing short of appalling.”

  21. “He’s been clear– he does not support a federal abortion ban,” an ad from the group #lies, despite #Trump's refusal to commit to vetoing a #NationalAbortionBan.

    Tenuous claims on Trump’s #abortion positions aside, the group is also using Justice #RuthBaderGinsburg’s name & likeness without permission from her family.

  22. "Appalling": #RuthBaderGinsburg family denounces pro-#Trump “RBG PAC” ads

    #RBG’s family called the shadowy PAC's pro-Trump ad buys an "affront" to the late justice's legacy

    A Trump group is spending millions in #DarkMoney to claim he would defend reproductive rights while brandishing late #SCOTUS Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s name.

    The so-called RBG PAC spent nearly $20M to boost Trump’s campaign, per #FEC filings revealed on Fri.

  23. #MitchMcConnell held open the seat that had been occupied by Justice #AntoninScalia, a #conservative, until #Trump became president. Trump put forward Neil M. #Gorsuch.

    McConnell said #MerrickGarland’s nomination came too close to the 2016 presidential election, but he later helped push through the nomination of #AmyConeyBarrett [less than 1 month prior to the 2020 election]…, after the death of Justice #RuthBaderGinsburg, a *#liberal*.

  24. #OnThisDay in 2020, President #DonaldTrump nominates Judge Amy Coney Barrett for the US Supreme Court to replace #RuthBaderGinsburg.

  25. “Women belong in all places where decisions are being made.” — Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

    We lost Justice Ginsburg four years ago today. She was a relentless defender of voters and the rights of all people to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

  27. "I was doing all these sex-discrimination cases, and my secretary said, ‘I look at these pages and all I see is sex, sex, sex. The judges are men, and when they read that they’re not going to be thinking about what you want them to think about,’ ” Ginsburg recalled. Henceforth, she changed her claim to “gender discrimination.”

  28. Oh, btw. I am currently reading/listening to a collection of blog posts and information... about:

    Notorious RBG:
    The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg [2015]
    by Irin Carmon, Shana Knizhnik with Andi Arndt as narrator

    This was a gift from friend J., I've already started and am enjoying VERY MUCH!

  29. Fuck #Breyer and #Ginsburg and damn them both to hell for their deliberate decisions to not retire in a timely manner sufficient enough to allow #Obama to appoint their successors.

    They were neither impartial nor liberal, but rather fully and willfully complicit in creating the current #SupremeCourt.
