Musk, Bezos, Zuckerberg to sit on platform with Trump cabinet nominees at inauguration

According to NBC News, each of the tech executives will be seated on the platform for Trump's inauguration. Musk, who helped campaign for the president-elect, has been appointed by Trump to lead the Department of Government Efficiency and was ahead of the curve in comparison to Zuckerberg and Bezos in warming up to the next president.

Zuckerberg, who founded Facebook and is the CEO of its parent company Meta, recently dropped all DEI initiatives as well as announced that Facebook and Instagram will be ditching fact-checkers in favor of an X-style community notes system and will be starting to eliminate policies that censor social media posts.

In addition to this, Zuckerberg announced in a video last week Meta is "going to work with President Trump to push back on governments around the world that are going after American companies and pushing to censor more.”

Bezos, Amazon's founder, was recently seen dining with Trump at Mar-a-Lago and his company also recently dropped some of its DEI programs following Meta's decision. In addition to this, as owner of the Washington Post, the paper chose not to endorse Kamala Harris ahead of the election when the paper had been endorsing Democratic candidates for years.

The three are among the wealthiest people in the world and in the United States with a combined net worth of $885 billion.
