seriously, SpaceX showed the way and Anthropic is following it. Selective leaks of the "confidential" prospectus to gin up enthusiasm for the IPO, which is wildly illegal under the federal securities laws but no one cares about that anymore www.reuters.com/legal/transa...

In keeping with the trend, entities continue to dig in and say "we're not even satisfied with allowing our own shareholders to have the sanitized board minutes that SB21 limited 220 demands to. we're gonna LARP as Judge Smails and remind you, Spalding, that you'll get nothing and like it."

McBride: Look, people are clutching their pearls at this guy yelling something at the president. They are more offended by a worker standing up to the president and calling him out for his hypocrisy than they are by the president trying to cover up for a human trafficking ring

Watching a DM with no idea what’s she’s doing while DMing a game where the players are four legendary DMs is a lot like watching the Delaware legislature, while consider amendments to the DGCL, introducing expert witnesses who are promptly ignored with no explanation.

I cannot express how alarming it is to see a blue state legislature contemplate re-writing laws so a congenital billionaire lawbreaker doesn’t have to be inconvenienced by them anymore. Rule of law doesn’t mean rule according to the whims of Silicon Valley oligarchs.

Professor Lipton makes numerous excellent points and I urge all who care about Delaware to listen carefully to what she has to say — including any members of the Delaware legislature who might take the time to listen this year instead of simply voting yes without question.

Appalling behavior from a disgraceful majority. The only consolation if you can call it that is the simple fact that the more time they waste on this behavior is less time spent implementing a dangerous agenda to send us back even further.

I’ll also add, for the record, it is the Court of Chancery, not the Delaware Chancery Court. If you’re gonna criticize it, maybe try spending the 30 seconds to research the damn name. But hey what the hell do I know? I just spend my days covering it.

Delaware Law Has Entered the Culture War
Elon Musk has helped bring an esoteric debate around the Delaware Chancery Court to a national stage. Now Dropbox and Meta are contemplating moving their incorporation away from the state.

Remember when Lina Khan blocked the Kroger/Albertsons merger, which would've sent grocery prices skyrocketing? Trump’s new FTC pick vowed to end the “war on mergers.” And wouldn’t you know it, Trump is now walking back his promise to lower grocery prices. Funny how that works.

The DC Circuit upholds the TikTok ban. Opinion to come. An unfortunate ruling. Likely to head to the Supreme Court where it will only get more complicated.

I’d also add that if the WSJ editorial board is so concerned about where the plaintiff attorneys are spending their money, I don’t see them raising any concerns about where the lead defendant is spending his… so perhaps it’s not about money in politics and rather about who that money is spent on. 🙄

I echo Vice Chancellor Laster’s position here. Delaware courts are, by design, structured to be as apolitical as possible… so much so that it even went to the United States Supreme Court in the 2020 term and we’re still here…

It seems appropriate that I join the conversation here by joining in on the discussion of Chancellor McCormick's decision issued yesterday in Tornetta v. Musk in the Court of Chancery. courts.delaware.gov/Opinions/Dow...
