US Elections 2024: Joe Biden To Cast An Early Vote In Delaware

<p>Delaware County authorities said that a disgruntled employee opened fire at a linen company in Chester, Pennsylvania, on Wednesday, killing two coworkers and injuring three others. Police said one was in critical condition,&nbsp;NBC Philadelphia reported.&nbsp;</p>

<p>During a morning news conference, Delaware County District Attorney Jack Stollsteimer said, "This is a story that plays out too often across the United States of America." Stollsteimer called the shooting "an absolute tragedy."&nbsp;</p>

Elon Musk loses $56 bn pay package in legal battle led by former heavy metal drummer

<p>In a groundbreaking move, a judge in Delaware has cancelled the whopping $56 billion pay package awarded to Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk, back in 2018. The decision, given by Judge Kathaleen McCormick in Delaware Chancery Court, comes in response to a challenge from Tesla shareholder Richard Tornetta, who claimed Musk was overpaid.</p>

<p>The judge ruled that Tornetta was "entitled to rescission" and said the parties now need to "confer" and send a joint letter "identifying all issues, including fees, that need to be addressed to bring this matter to a conclusion at the trial level."</p>

Gravitas: Amid Twitter turmoil, Elon Musk testifies in a trial

<p>Billionaire Elon Musk will be appearing in a Delaware court on Wednesday in a lawsuit regarding his $50 billion pay package as Tesla CEO. The lawsuit was launched by Tesla shareholder Richard Tornetta who said that the package was approved by the board of directors without any due diligence.
