In a stunning turn of events, Tesla CEO Elon Musk has been dethroned as the world's richest person, with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos reclaiming the top spot.
Join us as we delve into this dramatic shift in the billionaire rankings.
Donald Trump was shot at today during an election rally in Pennsylvania. The former US President is reported to be safe and recuperating under medical care. However, conflicting reports are emerging about the incident. While Trump asserts that he was shot with a bullet that pierced the upper part of his right ear, law enforcement officials claim he was hit by glass fragments, possibly from a teleprompter broken by the bullets. This discrepancy has fueled conspiracy theories, with some social media users calling the event a staged 'photo op' for sympathy and votes. President Biden has condemned the attack as "sick," and tech mogul Elon Musk has publicly endorsed Trump following the incident. The true details of what happened remain under investigation.

Chief Justice John Roberts, writing for the court's

The SEC relies on administrative
law judges (ALJ) to make legal conclusions
in cases brought before the agency.
The Supreme Court's decision has the potential
to send ripples through dozens of agencies,
from labor rights to energy regulation.
The Court did exclude from its decision those
agencies dealing with federal benefits, while some
conservative justices wanted the ruling to go further.
The three liberal justices
in dissent blasted the
decision by the majority. .
The case was brought by a former conservative
radio host and hedge fund manager, George Jarkesy,
following an SEC fraud investigation.

An in-house evidentiary hearing fined Jarkesy $300,000,
ordered him to pay back almost $700,000 in ill-gotten
profits and barred him from the securities industry.
Jarkesy argued that he was entitled to a jury trial
held in a federal court and that Congress lacked
the power to delegate such authority to the SEC.
NPR reports that Jarkesy's case was supported
by a number of conservative and business groups, and individuals such as Elon Musk.

The Group of Seven “likely” abandoned the US plan to expropriate Russia’s frozen central bank assets due to a “veiled threat” from Saudi Arabia, Bloomberg has reported. The US and UK had been pushing for outright seizure of around $280 billion in Russian sovereign funds, which the West had frozen in 2022 citing the Ukraine conflict. The EU, where most of the immobilised assets are held, was reluctant to see the euro endangered by the possible backlash.
