Google Donates $1 Million to Trump’s Inauguration Racket
CNBC:
Google donated $1 million to President-elect Donald Trump’s
inauguration fund, becoming the latest major tech company to try
and curry some goodwill with the incoming administration.
“Google is pleased to support the 2025 inauguration, with a
livestream on YouTube and a direct link on our homepage. We’re
also donating to the inaugural committee,” Karan Bhatia, Google’s
global head of government affairs and public policy, told CNBC in
a statement.
So Google joins Amazon and Meta with $1 million company donations. Tim Cook and Sam Altman are in with $1 million personal donations. That leaves, among the big six, two companies who as yet have not been reported to have donated, either from the company or their CEOs: Microsoft and Nvidia.
