Yes I am sure of the second part based on the government’s own publicly available tweets and lawsuits that have been filed.

Literally PR.
Governmental filings are not PR and either are lawsuits. The lawsuit was won or at the very least validated by a judge.
What part is incorrect? Amodei never said that AI models should not be used for military purposes, did he? He said that they shouldn't be used for autonomous weapons, and then he backed up the talk with action.

I have other beefs with Amodei, including his pathetic, mewling appeals for regulatory capture and his forehead-slapping hypocrisy on copyright and ToS enforcement, but this seemed like a case where he was legitimately on the right side of the question and had the moral courage to stand by his position.
