        Here's the story to which his tweet cites — https://www.aol.com/article/news/2017/12/18/ivanka-trump-and-jared-kushner-sued-over-financial-disclosures/23310476/?a_dgi=aolshare_twitter … — and here's the underlying lawsuit: https://www.politico.com/f/?id=00000160-6756-dcd4-a96b-777f3f740001 …

        The guy behind the lawsuit is a lawyer in DC, Jeffrey Lovitky, who is seeking to "compel compliance by [Jared and Ivanka] with the financial disclosure requirements of the Ethics in Government Act."pic.twitter.com/lORzSYQ09k

        So, no, it's not at all what Prof. Tribe's tweet says it is.

        Update: Tribe did acknowledge the error and delete the tweet — but it had gotten nearly 2,000 RTs last I had looked before it was deleted. https://twitter.com/tribelaw/status/943193421551939585 …

        today i had the weird experience of seeing something tweeted by one of the most respected lawyers in the country and thinking "better check and make sure that's not bullshit before i quote tweet"

        Well hasn’t it been apparent for a while that something has happened and he’s not exactly himself these days? Some of his tweets sound pretty unhinged.

        I view it as Newton’s Law “equal and opposite reaction” to Alan Dershowitz. A symmetrical going off of the rails.

        Maybe-tho Dershowitz’s stuff seems like his usual limelight-seeking shtick. But a lot of Tribe’s anti-Trump tweets seem oddly irrational & overly emotional. I don’t know, of course, but it reminds me of when a fine lawyer I know began to show dementia, which would be a shame.

        Thanks Chris. I read the article and saw it was an error, so didn't retweet. Mistakes happen when we are swarmed by bees in the news cycles. Swatting at everything leads to mistakes.
