    CVR Is Using Typical Carl Icahn Campaign Tactics of Misleading Statements and Attacks to Distract from an Attempt to Take Value from Delek Shareholders

    CVR is Using Typical Carl Icahn Campaign Tactics of Misleading Statements and Attacks to Distract from an Attempt to Take Value from Delek Shareholders Dear Fellow Shareholder: CVR acquired a 15% stake in Delek last year, initially stating that it wanted to acquire Delek. Most recently, CVR launched a proxy contest to replace Delek Directors with three longstanding friends and former colleagues of CVR CEO David Lamp. It is no surprise that CVR appears to be using Carl Icahn’s decades old playbook of nominating friends and colleagues and making a range of misleading statements and half-truths to ‘see what sticks’ as it seeks to get its nominees elected. Here are the facts: Carl Icahn and CVR want Delek to Buy Back CVR’s Stake in Delek To seek to resolve this proxy contest, we engaged in many discussions with Icahn/CVR. Not surprisingly, Icahn/CVR omitted key details in their recent materials regarding these negotiations. · Icahn/CVR wanted Delek to buy back a significant portion of Icahn/CVR’s stake. · When we rejected that proposal, Icahn/CVR pushed us to conduct a hasty process to sell our retail business in order to fund a self-tender ostensibly to fund a buyback of CVR’s shares in Delek. Icahn/CVR’s investment in Delek is barely a year old, and now they want us to take actions that are not in the best interests of Delek shareholders in order to fund the repurchase of their shares. This is a classic Icahn tactic from his long history of self- interested demands, but this path does not make sense for Delek shareholders.

  • The People Shaping the Trump Administration

    The People Shaping the Trump Administration

    The People Shaping the Trump Administration Despite Running on a Pledge to ‘Drain the Swamp’ and Crack Down on Special Interests, Donald Trump Has Filled His Transition Team With Lobbyists and Others With Potential Conflicts November 16, 2016 – Donald Trump rode to the White House by raging about alleged rampant corruption in Washington and pledging to “drain the swamp.” Each of the five points in the ethics platform he issued in October focused on diminishing the influence of lobbyists.1 These included a promise to impose a five-year ban on former executive branch officials lobbying the federal government. Trump further promised to crack down on special interest-influence by expanding the definition of lobbyist to include consultants and others who trade on inside government information and expertise.2 But Trump’s nascent transition team, which will shape his administration, is swarming with lobbyists and other special interests. Many of the lobbyists are working for the transition on areas for which they currently are lobbying the federal government. Meanwhile, many of those who aren’t lobbyists appear to have potential conflicts of interest. Vice president-elect Mike Pence reportedly said on November 15 that the transition team would be purged of lobbyists, but the transition team has not made the point official.3 Even if true, that remedy would not address cases such as a defense contractor working on defense interests, or a lawyer for health care interests working on health care reform. Here are brief summaries of individuals who have been reported in the media as overseeing agencies or policies for Trump’s transition team.
  • Reversal Theory: Understanding the Motivational Styles of Espionage Lydia R

    Reversal Theory: Understanding the Motivational Styles of Espionage Lydia R

    Reversal Theory: Understanding the Motivational Styles of Espionage Lydia R. Wilson Is espionage a question of preference? Are there definite psychologi­ cal needs that compel individuals to seek satisfaction through spying against the interests of their own country? To address these ques­ tions, I apply Dr. Michael J. Apter's Reversal Theory (RT) to the espionage or insider threat problem to further our understanding of what may be done-pro actively-to counter what the former u.s. National Counterintelligence Executive calls "the top counterintel­ ligence challenge to our community."! About the varied application of his theory, Apter writes: New patterns become evident wherever we look, whether our interest is in family relations, violence, humor, risk-taking, leadership, sport, or almost any other topic. As a result, reversal theory is a theory of unusual generality that can act to integrate seemingly unrelated topics into a single overarching and comprehensive framework.2 The application of this versatile theory-that psychologists have applied to topics ranging from smoking cessation to enhancing ath­ letic performance-may have value for security professionals and the U.S. counterintelligence community. This is because RT may answer questions such as: • What are the basic motives of human beings? • Is there a pattern underlying different types of mental disorder? • Why is it that sometimes people voluntarily do unnecessary things that might harm them? • Why do people sometimes enjoy doing things that are forbid­ den?3 76 International Journal of Intelligence Ethics, Vol. 3, No. 1 I Spring/Summer 2012 Lydia R. Wilson 77 Goal of this Article The goal of this article is to present a better understanding of the psychology of those who have engaged in espionage-not to di­ agnose or establish a profile of those who might become a spy.
