Trump’s second inauguration: Live updates and how to watch

Senators Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Michael Bennet (D-CO) are pressuring big tech companies to explain their motivations for donating to President-elect Donald Trump’s inaugural fund. In a letter to Amazon, Apple, Google, Meta, Microsoft, OpenAI, and Uber, the lawmakers expressed concerns about companies contributing to “avoid scrutiny, limit regulation, and curry favor.”

In the past few weeks, Google, Microsoft, Apple CEO Tim Cook, Meta, Amazon, and OpenAI CEO Sam Altman have all donated $1 million each to Trump’s inauguration, while Uber and CEO Dara Khosrowshahi have each donated $1 million. Many of these tech executives have already met Trump, and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is said to be even hosting an inauguration ceremony for the next president. new york times.
