"Wall Street's top regulator said on Thursday it had voted to cease legal efforts to defend regulations that require companies to disclose #climate-related emissions, risks and spending, and had been hotly contested by industrial lobby groups.

The decision by the Republican-dominated U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission had been widely expected following public remarks last month by its acting chairman, Mark Uyeda."

The companies have a number of mutual investors, including venture firms #AndreessenHorowitz & #SequoiaCapital, as well as #Fidelity Management, #VyCapital & #SaudiArabia’s Kingdom Holding Co.

the #TrevorMilton (#Nikola Motor fraudster) pardon is not going over well with the #MAGA crypto bros, many of whom were scammed by... Trevor Milton (which should be unsurprising - these are gullible people who love trading meme stocks, AKA “the primary market for #NKLA shares”).

Tesla bros are also pissed, because Milton's whole scam was basically pretending to be Elon Musk for trucks.

"[Trevor Milton] did nothing wrong and he's a good person." - Donald Trump

"Trevor Milton donated $1.8 million to Trump and his lawyer is #PamBondi's brother." - me

The fraudster behind Nikola Motors (the fake electric truck company that made the famous video purporting to be their flagship tractor trailer moving under electric power that turned out to be just an empty truck chassis rolling down a hill) has been pardoned by Donald Trump.
