Dr. Raphael WeylandThe <a href="https://eupolicy.social/@eppgroup" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@eppgroup</a> tonight showed it's not interested in compromise politics but in killing civil society + environmental policies. The <a href="https://ec.social-network.europa.eu/@EUCommission" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@EUCommission</a> announced a <a href="https://eupolicy.social/tags/LIFE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#LIFE</a> Programm statement for tomorrow.

Miguel Afonso Caetano"Delaware just passed a law this week that would shield tech billionaires Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk from an array of potential misconduct, which could impact active litigation against them alleging theft from shareholders. The bill was crafted by Democratic governor Matt Meyer’s office in direct consultation from Meta’s own legal team and a roster of corporate defense lawyers representing both billionaires, according to documents released last week by CNBC.Those outside lawyers consulted by the governor include an attorney at a firm that recently represented Meta in a Delaware court and Leon Strine, a former Delaware Supreme Court justice who now works at a major defense side law firm, Wachtell Lipton. The firm is currently defending Mark Zuckerberg against an ongoing shareholder lawsuit over an improper settlement Meta struck in 2019 regarding the Cambridge Analytica data breach.Separate from that court case, Meta is currently being investigated for potential wrongdoing by shareholders who recently filed multiple “books and records” requests to obtain company documents. Changes in the new law would shut off legal avenues for any evidence in those documents to lead to lawsuits that could be worth billions of dollars in violations.The bill makes it easier for companies to deny disclosure requests and hand over fewer internal documents. Additionally, the criteria for an improper transaction that may be reviewed by a Delaware court will be much more lenient to corporate executives. As long as a majority of so-called independent directors approve a deal, without shareholder input, executives won’t be subject to liability for potential conflicts of interest."<a href="https://jacobin.com/2025/03/meta-delaware-musk-zuckerberg-litigation" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://jacobin.com/2025/03/meta-delaware-musk-zuckerberg-litigation</a><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#USA</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Delaware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Delaware</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Meta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Meta</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Musk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Musk</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Lobbying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lobbying</a>

iryna 🇺🇦What's depressing me today is realizing that I as an 18yo were right.When I came to the US, I was explained the concept of lobbying. Coming from a post-soviet country, where I didn't get a stipend to a dream college because all the "full-rides" were bribed for by parents with money, I thought to myself - "lobbying's just bribery with extra steps, right?"Living in the US for 10 years, realizing that I understood it correctly as a teenager is pretty depressing.<a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/lobbying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lobbying</a>
