I hope that Apple quickly fixes this. I’m (hopefully) putting it down to some lower level agendanista activist. I haven;t seen this type of action previously.

From the article:

The Daily Signal sought comment from Apple’s media relations office by phone and email, asking whether the company would address Wrightstone’s allegations of political bias. Apple had not responded by publication time.

I learned of this from Stuart Varney on Fox Business this a.m. If you get a chance, watch his show from 9 to noon ET. Very conservative with free market info and commentary, and he does it with humor and good nature. I often find myself laughing at comments he makes and all have a good time while learning about the markets.

"I'm(hopefully) putting it down to some low level agendanista activist"

Lisa Jackson was EPA Administrator for Obama. When she left that job she was hired to head up Apples environmental issues. In 2015 she was promoted to Vice-President of Environment, Policy and Social Initiatives, and reports to Tim Cook.

Last year Trump invited Tim Cook to a state dinner for French Pres Macron. Cook doesn't have a wife so he took Lisa Jackson to the White House dinner so she could talk up the Paris Agreement with Macron.

Apple is a member of the Group, We Are Still In, which was created when Trump said he would unsign the Paris Agreement.

Apple is also a member of RE 100 which refers to 100% renewable energy.

In 2016 FERC gave Apple permission to sell excess power from their solar facilities to regional power markets in the US. Apple/Cook also owns substantial stock in the Chinese wind turbine company GoldWing
