SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A judge has ordered Elon Musk to testify for a third time as part of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s investigation into his $44 billion purchase of Twitter, now called X, in 2022. Magistrate Judge Laurel Beeler issued an order Saturday giving Musk, his team and the SEC a week to agree on a date and location for Musk’s testimony. Beeler said, however, that the court is enforcing the SEC's subpoena and that the testimony is “not unduly burdensome” for Musk. The SEC had given Musk the option to testify in Texas, where he lives. The SEC and a lawyer for Musk did not immediately respond to messages seeking comment on Monday.

US judge orders Elon Musk to testify in SEC’s Twitter probe

CNN —A federal judge ordered Elon Musk to testify again in the US Securities and Exchange Commission’s probe of his $44 billion takeover of Twitter, giving the regulator and the billionaire a week to agree on a date and location for the interview. Musk fought the SEC’s bid to interview him, saying it had already done so twice, and accused the regulator of harassment. To settle that case, Musk agreed that a Tesla lawyer would vet his tweets about the electric vehicle maker. The SEC sued him again in 2019 for allegedly breaching that provision. Musk has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to review the agreement, saying it violates his constitutional right to free speech.

Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has to testify in a probe by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission concerning his 2022 acquisition of Twitter, a U.S. judge ordered in a court filing out Saturday. Musk closed his acquisition of Twitter in October 2022 in a deal worth roughly $44 billion, and has since rebranded it X. Musk, his attorney Alex Spiro and the SEC did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The settlement required Musk to have a "Twitter sitter" approve his tweets about his electric vehicle business before posting them. Attorneys for SpaceX argued in their suit that the very structure of the federal labor board violates the U.S. Constitution.

Kenya's President William Ruto called the treaty “the first domino” in a shift away from plastic pollution. The U.N. Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee on Plastic Pollution is charged with developing the first international, legally binding treaty on plastic pollution on land and at sea. Kenya is a global leader in fighting plastic pollution, and in 2017, the country banned the manufacture, sale and use of single-use plastic bags. Nonetheless, he said, it is evident that negotiations have moved beyond plastic waste and into addressing plastic production and toxic chemicals used to make plastic. “The focus is on ending plastic pollution, not plastic production," he said.

That position is opposed by the plastic industry and by oil and petrochemical exporters like Saudi Arabia, who want to see plastic use continue. They argue that the treaty should focus on recycling and reusing plastics, sometimes referred to in the talks as "circularity" in the plastics supply. In a submission ahead of this week's negotiations, Saudi Arabia said the root cause of plastic pollution was "inefficient management of waste." "The plastics agreement should be focused on ending plastic pollution, not plastic production," Kastner told Reuters in a statement. Countries will also be debating whether the treaty should set transparency standards for chemical use in plastics production.

Wesley Allen Beeler, un bărbat din Virginia, a fost arestat lângă clădirea Capitoliului din Washington, SUA, după ce polițiștii de la un punct de control au descoperit că avea un pistol încărcat și 500 de cartușe depozitate în camioneta sa, relatează surse din forțele de ordine, citate de CNN. Asupra lui Beeler au fost găsite o acreditare „neautorizată” pentru ceremonia de inaugurare a administrației Biden, un pistol semiautomat Glock, încărcat cu 17 gloanțe, și 509 cartușe, potrivit unui raport al Poliției Metropolitane. Beeler a fost arestat pentru posesia unei arme de foc neînregistrată și deținerea de muniție fără drept. După violențele din 7 ianuarie, când protestatarii au năvălit în clădirea Capitoliului, și cu câteva zile înainte de inaugurarea noii administrații Biden, programată pe 20 ianuarie, Washingtonul a fost împânzit de soldați ai Gărzii Naționale și de efective de poliție.
