Nikola Founder Trevor Milton releases new documentary

The rise and fall of Trevor Milton, founder and former executive chairman of battery electric truck maker Nikola, was a story that took the trucking industry by storm. A bombshell report in 2020 by Hindenburg Research launched accusations of fraud, saying Milton lied about the capabilities of Nikola's product, alleging nepotism, and more. Ultimately, this led to investigations into Milton and Nikola, an ousting of him as CEO, and a 2023 conviction that slapped him with a sentence of four years in federal prison. At the start of this year, President Trump pardoned Milton and now he is setting the record straight of his own volition. Milton and his team have released a documentary, 'Conviction or Conspiracy – The Trevor Milton Saga', streaming free and open access on YouTube. In a press release, Milton said, 'For years, I've been silent—forced to sit back while the media, opportunists, and corporations ran wild with their version of my story. Today, that silence ends. I want people to watch the film, think for themselves, and finally get the full picture.' 'This isn't just my story—it's a warning about how quickly our system can be weaponized,' Milton added. 'This film gives people the context and evidence that was left out of the headlines. I'm proud it's finally out.' The film hit YouTube to ensure 'unrestricted global access.'

New York Judge Censured After Erupting During School Board Meeting, Demanding His Son Be Named Valedictorian

Long Beach City Court Judge Corey E. Klein was formally censured by the New York State Commission on Judicial Conduct The judge, who will maintain office through 2034, was accused of using his title amid a heated exchange during a school board meeting where he complained that his son was not named valedictorian Klein now has 30 days to appeal the decisionA New York judge was censured after erupting during a school board meeting. The New York State Commission on Judicial Conduct confirmed via press release on Monday, June 9 that Long Beach City Court Judge Corey E. Klein had been censured for "invoking his judicial office in a personal matter involving his son." During a local school board meeting that streamed live on YouTube on April 11, 2024, Klein took the microphone after the session was opened up to the public for questions. He announced that he wanted "to discuss the implications of this board's policies as it relates to COVID and the selection of the valedictorian." The judge proceeded to say that his son was "not selected as a valedictorian because of this board's policies," adding that they "impact[ed] one person and one person only this year, my son." Klein said that his son was a straight-A student before he was cut off. "Don't try to out-lawyer me with the law," the judge said when the superintendent asked the school district attorney if this was the right place to have Klein's conversation, per a formal written complaint reviewed by the Commission on Judicial Conduct on Feb. 20, 2025. The judge's microphone was seemingly turned off as a member of the school board spoke. However, Klein could still be heard shouting in the background. 'If you are going to try to be a lawyer, then refer to me by my title as well, okay. Thank you," Klein said. 'You can refer to me, counsel, as judge,' he also said, according to the complaint, which also noted that Klein frequently used the terms "counsel" and "counselor" to address the attorney. At one point, Klein accused the board of "[trying] to sick your pit bull attorney on me." He also said, "I'm sorry that your attorney needed to go at me when all I wanted to do was come up here and politely address one simple question." He had the floor for nearly 20 minutes.

Amid his outburst, he was told that he "had the right to appeal" the decision about his son. However, this was not the place to do so. "Don't try to shut me down," Klein said, threatening to continue speaking "all night." At one point, the attorney noted that he was "respecting" Klein and asked for the same respect in return. He also addressed Klein's repeated use of legal terminology, saying, "Your Honor, we are not in court at this point." In the commission's press release, it was noted that Klein "agreed to the censure." The release also noted that all 11 members "concurred" with the determination that was made on May 29, 2025. He was also censured for using his office to help an "acquaintance" get out of a "traffic matter." Now that the determination has been filed, Klein has 30 days to make a formal appeal. According to the New York State Commission, the judge has held office at the Long Beach City Court since 2015. He will remain a judge until the end of 2034. 'It corrodes public confidence in the judiciary when a judge lends the prestige of judicial office to advance a private benefit," Commission Administrator Robert H. Tembeckjian said, per the release. Tembeckjian continued, by adding, "Doing so impulsively, in an unseemly public argument over who should be a high school's honoree, or as a favor to a parking ticket scofflaw, is especially irresponsible." According to the Center for Judicial Ethics of the National Center for State Courts, a censure "is a formal sanction for violating the Code of Judicial Conduct." While a judge who is censured "does not require suspension or removal," the formal matter is a "stern rebuke." PEOPLE reached out to the New York State Unified Court System for comment but did not hear back at the time of publication. Read the original article on People

Ari Aster's ‘Eddington' Sharply Divides Cannes: Star Pedro Pascal Defends a Western About ‘Our Worst Fears' Amid Lockdown

When writer/director Ari Aster stood up for the ovation after the Cannes premiere of his divisive 2020-set Western 'Eddington' (July 16, A24), he said, 'I feel very privileged to be here. This is a dream come true. Thank you so much for having me. And, I don't know, sorry?' Indeed, festival attendees have been fiercely divided by his 145-minute portrait of a fictional New Mexico town wracked by COVID, BLM, ACAB, you-name-it-2020-buzz-concept during the darkest season of American lives in recent memory. Joaquin Phoenix (Aster's 'Beau Is Afraid') plays a conservative sheriff who decides to run against his Gavin Newsom-esque, pro-masks-and-testing adversary, Ted Garcia (Pedro Pascal), in the local mayoral election. More from IndieWire The Cannes 2025 Films So Far Most Likely to End Up in the Oscar Race 'Imago' Review: Chechen Documentary Explores a Filmmaker's Conflicted Return to His Roots Meanwhile, at home, Phoenix's character Joe Cross is in a quarantine bubble with his hysteria-addled wife Louise (Emma Stone) and her far-right conspiracy-obsessed mother Dawn (Deirdre O'Connell), the type for whom hydroxychloroquine was presumably a panacea. But Joe's campaign is all anti-masks, anti-vax, with the threat of cult leader Vernon Jefferson Peak (Austin Butler) also posing a challenge to his political and personal life. The film has sparked massive debates up and down the Croisette since premiering Friday night, with the starriest red carpet thus far and a press conference Saturday afternoon featuring Aster with his actors Phoenix, Pascal (in a sleeveless top), Stone (in a pixie haircut, her hair growing back presumably after shaving it off for Yorgos Lanthimos' upcoming 'Bugonia'), and Michael Ward, who plays Phoenix's next-in-command. IndieWire has talked to people who loved or hated the film, with rarely any opinion in between and certainly never without a strong response of some kind from anyone — whether out of boredom or raptures over Aster's in-your-face replay of our worst COVID-times memories. 'Eddington' could be a tough sell for audiences unwilling to be submersed again in summer 2020 and all the chaos and anxieties it erupted. Other pundits I've spoken to defend 'Eddington' as a necessary social satire that mocks and derides the panic of that year, while encapsulating it all into one movie as never before. IndieWire critic David Ehrlich wrote in his rave review that 'few other filmmakers would have the chutzpah required' to pull this movie off, 'and we should probably all be grateful that none of them have tried.' 'It's very scary to participate in a movie that speaks to issues like this,' Pascal said at the press conference. 'It's far too intimidating a question for me to address. I'm not informed enough. I want people to be safe and protective. I want very much to be on the right side of history.' 'Eddington' indeed takes shots at both sides of the aisle, roasting liberal posturing in the form of social justice youth like Sarah (Amélie Hoeferle), who posts TikToks about James Baldwin and rants about having any position at all on 'stolen land.' Phoenix's sheriff character, meanwhile, could only be wrought from the era of Trump, as he rails against mask mandates and is suspicious of the George Floyd-inspired protests shaking up his community. At one point, he swaggers into a grocery store with the pompousness of Western's most classic, gun-on-the-hip cowboys. Pascal added, 'I felt like [Aster] wrote something that was all our worst fears as that lockdown experience was already a fracturing society. This was building toward an untethered sense of reality. There is a point of not going back. I was overwhelmed by that fear, and it's wonderful that it was confirmed by Ari.' Aster, whose latest feature is a hairpin departure from the genre thrills and chills of films like 'Hereditary' and 'Midsommar' and is far from the spirit of intrusive-thought-induced weirdness of 'Beau Is Afraid,' added, 'I wrote this movie in a state of fear and anxiety. I wanted to try and pull back and show what it feels like to live in a world where nobody can agree on what is real anymore.' 'Eddington' is his first feature to premiere at Cannes. 'I feel like we're on a dangerous road, and we're living in an experiment that hasn't gone well,' Aster said (via Deadline) about his MAGA- and liberal-skewering Western. 'I feel there is no way out of it… Mass liberal democracies always had this fundamental agreement we agree what we're arguing about, that system was coming from power. So it's not like suddenly there's this bad power out there. It's always been there, but right now it's chaos.' Stone, who connected with Aster amid his 2024 'Beau Is Afraid,' said that her research into the conspiracy theories that turn her character against her husband even ended up modifying her personal social media algorithms (via Variety). 'The only additional thing that scared me a little bit in the algorithm system was looking into some of the things that are in this film that haven't been in my algorithm, unfortunately, added them to my algorithm,' she said. 'Because once you start Googling it, you start seeing more and more things. So it's a real rabbit hole, very quickly. Unfortunately, I'm still getting fed some crazy shit.' 'Eddington' is still the most conversation-starting Competition premiere at Cannes, with critics split over its social message and pacing (it's currently at 63 on Metacritic, where you can find reviews all over the map). How A24 will market this movie — only one teaser has been released so far, showing Phoenix doom-scrolling through familiar images of the deepest COVID era — is an intriguing question in the lead-up to its July theatrical release. Alex Garland's 'Civil War,' another post-COVID story of national conflict, did well for A24 last year, grossing more than $127 million by tapping into a fascination factor over a divided United States. Who will 'Eddington' appeal to? Either way, it's pitting Cannes audiences against each other — Screen Daily called it a 'wan satire,' while Variety deemed it 'brazenly provocative' — and will no doubt continue to stoke debate into the summer.
