The SEC requirement stems from Musk's tweets in 2018 that claimed he was taking Tesla private, which shocked the market and caused shares in the company to surge.

The SEC deemed the tweets "materially false and misleading," and in clear violation of securities laws.

At the time, Musk agreed to settle the issue with the SEC, which included his signing off on the so-called "Twitter sitter" provision.

NBC reports that Musk has since said the restrictions are unconstitutional and that he was coerced into signing the SEC agreement.

According to court papers, lawyers representing Musk have accused the SEC of waging an "ongoing campaign" against Musk.

Musk's legal team claim the provision , "restricts Mr. Musk’s speech even when truthful and accurate.".

It extends to speech not covered by the securities laws and with no relation to the conduct underlying the SEC’s civil action, Elon Musk legal team, via NBC.

In response, the SEC said in court papers that Musk waived his right to appeal when he signed off on the settlement.

Elon Musk UNVEILS ‘Baby Grok’ AI App For Kids After Grok Bot's Antisemitic Scandal SHOCKS Internet

Elon Musk has just announced that his artificial intelligence startup xAI will soon launch a new kid-friendly app named Baby Grok. The app is expected to feature AI-generated content tailored for children, though Musk has yet to reveal specific features. The move comes just days after xAI launched Grok 4, the latest version of its chatbot, which previously sparked outrage for posting antisemitic content on X (formerly Twitter). Musk’s announcement raises eyebrows across the tech world — is Baby Grok a sincere attempt at safe AI for children, or damage control following the Grok scandal? With xAI pushing boundaries at breakneck speed, and controversy still fresh, Baby Grok already faces scrutiny before its official debut. Musk’s pivot to children’s content could signal a new strategy for the troubled AI platform, as it tries to rebuild trust. But will the world trust Grok — even in its diapered form? #BabyGrok #ElonMuskAI #xAI #KidFriendlyApp #AIForChildren #GrokBot #MuskAnnouncement #AIControversy #AntisemitismScandal #TechNews #ArtificialIntelligence #Grok4 #SafeAI #AIChatbot #xAIUpdate #ElonMuskNews #ChildSafeTech #GrokScandal #MuskAIPlans #TechDrama ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.124~

The GRAND Tesla Entry Into India | Musk’s EV Giant Opens First Showroom in India at the KC, Mumbai

Tesla has officially entered India, launching its first showroom at Mumbai’s BKC with the Model Y on display. Priced at ₹61 lakh on-road, the Model Y marks Tesla’s push into India’s luxury EV space. Initially imported from Berlin, Tesla’s India debut has sparked praise and criticism—Donald Trump slammed the move as “unfair” due to U.S. export tariffs. While Indian officials welcome the launch, local automakers fear disruption. Tesla’s arrival may accelerate EV adoption and reshape India’s electric vehicle policy landscape. #TeslaIndia #ElonMusk #ModelYIndia #TeslaLaunch #BKCShowroom #EVIndia #TrumpVsTesla #ElectricVehicles #TeslaMumbai #TeslaIndia #TeslaExperienceCentre #LuxuryEV #MakeInIndia #IndianEVMarket #GigaBerlin #EVRevolution #TeslaNews #AutoIndustry #PolicyShift #TrumpSlamsTesla #BreakingNews #EVAdoption #India2030 #GlobalAutoNews #ElectricMobility #TeslaInAsia Also Read Tesla Model Y Launched In India: Price, Features, Variants, Colours, Deliveries & More :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/tesla-model-y-car-price-in-india-check-car-deliver-waiting-period-variants-features-colours-ot-7801577.html?ref=DMDesc Linda Yaccarino Resigns As CEO Of X After Two Transformative Years :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/linda-yaccarino-resigns-as-ceo-of-x-after-two-transformative-years-7796371.html?ref=DMDesc Elon Musk’s Starlink Cleared To Operate In India, Services To Begin Soon :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/elon-musk-s-starlink-cleared-to-operate-in-india-services-to-begin-soon-7796229.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~GR.125~

Trump In Epstein Trouble: Obama Ready To KNOCK OUT Trump Ahead Of Midterms | Musk Snubs Trump On X [Video]

Trump In Epstein Trouble: Obama Ready To KNOCK OUT Trump Ahead Of Midterms | Musk Snubs Trump On X

Trump In Epstein Trouble: A major rift has appeared within the MAGA movement as supporters turn on President Donald Trump. The controversy ignited after Trump publicly defended Attorney General Pam Bondi, a move seen by many conservatives as a dismissal of concerns surrounding the recently unsealed Epstein files. This defense has triggered an unprecedented backlash from his own base. The fallout has been swift and visual. Influential conservative figures have condemned Trump's stance, and viral videos have spread across social media showing die-hard supporters burning their MAGA hats and other merchandise in protest. This public display of disillusionment signals a deep fracture within what was once Trump's most loyal demographic. As Trump scrambles to control the narrative with a 400-word post on Truth Social urging unity, even figures like Elon Musk have taken public jabs at him over the issue. Sensing a critical moment of weakness, the Democratic party is moving quickly to capitalize on the Republican infighting. Former President Barack Obama is set to return to the political frontline, headlining a major fundraiser in New Jersey this Friday alongside DNC Chair Ken Martin. This event, Obama's first since the 2024 election, is designed to rally the Democratic base and frame the GOP's internal conflict as a major liability ahead of the crucial 2026 midterm elections. This report from Oneindia News breaks down the timeline of the MAGA backlash, Trump's attempts at damage control, and the strategic moves being made by Barack Obama and the Democrats.

Thousands Flood Sydney Harbour Bridge In Historic Pro-Palestine Rally Despite Court Battle, Rain [Video]

Thousands Flood Sydney Harbour Bridge In Historic Pro-Palestine Rally Despite Court Battle, Rain

In a dramatic show of defiance and solidarity, over 90,000 protesters flooded Sydney Harbour Bridge on Sunday in what organisers hailed as a "historic" pro-Palestinian demonstration. Despite heavy rain and a last-minute legal battle, the Supreme Court authorised the event just 24 hours prior. The peaceful protest, dubbed the "March for Humanity", featured families, activists, and notable figures like Julian Assange, MP Ed Husic, and ex-NSW Premier Bob Carr. Chants of “Ceasefire now” echoed across the bridge as riot police stood guard. The NSW Police had initially tried to block the protest, citing safety risks, but the court found no evidence a ban would enhance security. The march caused major traffic disruptions across Sydney, and sparked debate, with the NSW Jewish Board of Deputies calling the court’s decision “disappointing.” Meanwhile, pressure grows on Australia to recognise Palestine, but PM Albanese says he won’t act unless conditions for Israel’s security are met. #SydneyProtest #PalestineMarch #SydneyHarbourBridge #JulianAssange #CeasefireNow #ProPalestine #Gaza #AustraliaNews #AnthonyAlbanese #EdHusic #BobCarr #JusticeBelindaRigg #PalestineActionGroup #MarchForHumanity #RiotPolice #RainyProtest #FreePalestine #UNGeneralAssembly #HumanRights #ABCNews ~HT.410~GR.122~
