Not even slightly, the judge didn't rule anything like that. I'd suggest taking a read through his ruling, his conclusions start on page 9 and they're not that complicated. In a nutshell, it's just saying that the training of an AI doesn't violate the copyright of the training material.
How Anthropic got the training material is a separate matter, that part is going to an actual try. This was a preliminary judgment on just the training part.
That's not what's happening. And Citizens United has nothing to do with this. It's about the question of whether training an AI is something that can violate copyright.
