"Vivek Ramaswamy has called for BuzzFeed to axe staff, focus on video and hire new voices such as former Fox News host Tucker Carlson after raising his stake in the media company to 8.3 per cent."

Let me put it in concrete terms. Under current law, given stock exchange listing rules, Elon Musk can only get his 25% voting control over Tesla if he's given 25% of the equity. If these laws go into place, the board can "contract" with him to give him control over decisions regardless of whether shareholders vote him and other board members out.

My mother uses wheelchair service. You wait 20 minutes to find someone to push the wheelchair into the airport, and another 30-45 minutes for someone to take you to the gate. These aren't motorized wheelchairs; someone has to push you. What possible reason would you have for faking a need?
