    For Journalists

    Joseph Kirchner, a pro se plaintiff, is litigating three federal constitutional cases — against the Speaker of the House, the President, the Attorney General, the FCC Chairman, the U.S. House of Representatives, and the AI companies Anthropic, OpenAI, Apple, Comcast, and METR — alleging coordinated constitutional violations across government and the AI industry. This site publishes the filed record in full. Every document here is the as-filed version and can be verified independently against the courts’ dockets.
