Tesla Grants Elon Musk $29 Billion Massive Pay Deal—Now Shareholders May Sue - Fedlan News

Tesla Grants Elon Musk $29 Billion Massive Pay Deal—Now Shareholders May Sue - Fedlan News: Tesla Grants Elon Musk $29 Billion—Now Shareholders May Sue amid rising backlash and renewed concerns over corporate governance.


This new $29 billion stock award feels to many like a desperate attempt to hold onto the myth of Musk. But myths don’t keep factories running. They don’t inspire customer loyalty when better, cheaper EVs hit the market. And they certainly don’t protect a company from economic or political fallout. Right now, Tesla is facing all three.
Mein Kampf & Trump

The consequences are already showing. Tesla’s brand favorability in the U.S. has dropped significantly. Young, environmentally conscious consumers who once idolized Musk are turning to brands like BMW and Mercedes, disillusioned by his politics and antics. In countries like Brazil and South Africa, Musk’s businesses are hitting roadblocks and public resistance. And with Trump threatening to revisit Musk’s immigration status and federal contracts, the risks are stacking up.

This situation isn’t just a shareholder concern—it’s a cautionary tale about the dangers of unchecked leadership. Musk once represented the future of tech. But now, to many, he’s become a symbol of what happens when corporate boards forget who they’re supposed to serve.

The Tesla board had a chance to course-correct after the court’s ruling. Instead, they handed Musk another multibillion-dollar package and invited another round of lawsuits. They bet—again—that Elon is worth the risk. But that bet is looking shakier by the day.

What happens next will test not just Tesla’s resilience, but the strength of corporate governance in America. Because this is no longer just about one CEO’s payday. It’s about whether rules still apply when the person at the top is too big to fail.

And if that answer turns out to be no, Tesla’s shareholders—and the public—may end up paying the price.

Donald Trump Sentenced in Hush Money Trial Involving Porn Star Stormy Daniels. By Don Terry | Tuesday, January 14, 2025 | 2 min read In a landmark case that has captivated the nation, former President Donald Trump has been sentenced after being convicted on 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. The charges stemmed from a hush money payment made to adult film star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential campaign. Despite the guilty verdict, the court handed down an unconditional discharge, meaning Trump will face no further penalties, including imprisonment or community service. The allegations centered on claims that Trump orchestrated the payment to Daniels to silence her allegations of an affair. Prosecutors argued that the payment was fraudulently recorded in business ledgers, violating state law. The jury ultimately sided with the prosecution, but the sentencing judge issued a rare and controversial ruling, granting unconditional discharge. Legal analysts have n...

Sam Cooke: The Rise, Legacy, and the Unsolved Mystery of an Icon's Tragic Death. By Ben Emos | Tuesday, January 21, 2025 | 6 min read In a poorly lit Los Angeles motel room, the echoes of a gunshot shattered the night, marking the tragic end of one of music's brightest stars. Sam Cooke, the smooth-voiced crooner behind timeless hits like “A Change is Gonna Come” and “You Send Me,” lay lifeless on the cold floor. Decades later, the circumstances surrounding his death remain clouded by whispers of conspiracy and cover-ups. Was it truly a case of self-defense, or was there more to the story? This enduring mystery has left many wondering why Hollywood has seemingly turned a blind eye to solving it. Cooke’s ascendant to stardom coincided with a period of profound social change in America. As the Civil Rights Movement gained momentum, Cooke stood at the intersection of music and activism, using his voice to advocate for justice and equality. Inspired by his own experiences, he refus...

Donald Trump's Greenland Proposal: A Threat to NATO and a Gift to Vladimir Putin

Donald Trump's Greenland Proposal: A Threat to NATO and a Gift to Vladimir Putin By Ben Emos & Don Terry | Wednesday, January 15, 2025 | 2 min read Donald Trump’s intentions regarding the world’s largest island remain uncertain, but he has not ruled out the possibility of resorting to military threats against a NATO member. Such a move could invoke Article 5 of the NATO charter, which treats an attack on one member as an attack on all. This prospect poses a significant diplomatic challenge for the alliance, potentially destabilizing its cohesion and advancing Vladimir Putin’s goal of undermining NATO’s unity. During a news conference at his Mar-a-Lago estate, Trump suggested he could not dismiss the idea of using military or economic pressure to acquire Greenland—or even the Panama Canal. Adding fuel to speculation, his son, Donald Trump Jr., visited Greenland, raising questions about their intentions. The U.S. already maintains the Pituffik Space Base in Greenland, a...
