       | Here are _all_ the quotes, from the article:
       | 
       | > "It's not at all clear that the statute can even apply to an
       | American company where there's no foreign entanglement,"
       | 
       | > "These are basically safety protocols. You can debate whether
       | these protocols are acceptable or not, but they run directly
       | counter to the risk that the law is designed to regulate
       | 
       | > "A lot of things Hegseth has said and the Pentagon has done
       | undermine their case and suggest there was personal animus and
       | bad blood between the parties, and that the Pentagon had it out
       | for Anthropic,
       | 
       | > The government was simultaneously threatening to use the
       | (Defense Production Act) to force Anthropic to sell its services,
       | using its services in active military operations, and saying it's
       | too dangerous to use them in government contracts, ... Not all of
       | these things can be true
       | 
       | Authors description:
       | 
       | > Jack Queen covers major lawsuits against the Trump
       | administration involving urgent questions of executive power and
       | how their resolution could affect the law and the legal
       | profession in the years to come.
