The NSCC is not a government agency but an industrial consortium of sorts. The formula they use to determine margin requirements for a given stock has a "discretionary" parameter that can be raised at will. Ken Griffin didn't need to ask Robinhood to delist GME directly, he just could've told his buddies at the NSCC to raise margin requirements so high that Robinhood & other brokers didn't have any other choice.
