[Texas Attorney General-designate vows to scrutinize potential Tesla-SpaceX merger] Golden Finance reports that on November 13th, Texas Attorney General-designate Nathan Johnson vowed to carefully review any potential merger between Elon Musk's SpaceX and Tesla, warning of the risks of excessive concentration of corporate power. Currently, these two of Texas's most valuable companies are considering a merger. "Any merger involving companies with such significant influence should be subject to close scrutiny," Johnson said on Thursday. Nine days earlier, he and other Democrats won the election in this state, which has been Republican-controlled since the 1990s.
