Meta donates $1 mn to Trump’s inaugural fund to build positive relation

Meta Platforms Inc. has donated $1 million to President-elect Donald Trump’s inaugural fund, part of an effort to build a positive relationship with the administration after a tense history.

While small, the donation is not something Meta did for President Joe Biden or Trump’s prior term, and it follows a November dinner between Trump and Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg at Mar-a-Lago. A Meta spokesperson confirmed the donation, which was reported earlier by The Wall Street Journal, but declined to comment further.
