      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 …

      People, very often in the Legal Profession, make mistakes. Tribe acknowledged his, promptly addressed it. 2K retweets a blip on Twitter and % his very substantial follower base. Quite sure your turn will come on Twitter, but then 2K would be much larger RT % ur base.

      What are you talking about? There was nothing "prompt" about it, and the damage was done by time he did address it — all those RTs (that disappeared when he deleted) were long removed from the tops of people's timelines.

          Exactly. Mr. Geidner seems to feel that we are permanently 'damaged' by Mr. Tribes tweet. Perhaps he has a personal bad feeling for Tribe, perhaps he doesn't understand we who follow him have stronger minds than what he Tweets errantly. It's not like he's some bot. Stop, Chris.

          You can unfollow if you want to intentionally misread my tweets. He made an error. He acknowledged it a day later and then deleted it. I updated my thread to note that. We’ve both moved on. It’s you who hasn’t.

          That's nonsense defensiveness. I enjoy reading every accomplished person's tweets and I don't knee jerk to what they say as god's honest truth. I appreciated you corrected him and posted the Complaint. Kudos 2 u for correcting the record.

          That you could have corrected the (Lawsuit) record, so to speak, without targeting Mr Tribe and his tweet as if his was so all important needing to be. Just seemed a bit policing of Tribe's tweet that was incorrect to be sure, but which was day later deleted w proper explanation.

          It was Tribe’s tweet that needed to be corrected.

          Understood. Glad you're being so vigilant over well-known Legal Expert's Twitter feeds...Twitter being well, Twitter, with not much of a user/reader base %wise social media. I'm sleeping better tonight tho. Now...onto maybe @RWPUSA ? @NormEisen ?

          Twitter is very ego-based. @chrisgeidner and others put their opinions out here without “the nasty”. The offering is authentic. And I appreciate that. Felìz Navidad.
