SCOOP: Business leaders are paying as much as $5,000,000 to meet one-on-one with President Donald Trump at his Florida compound, sources tell WIRED, while others are paying $1,000,000 apiece to dine with him in a group setting.

“It’s everyone else who missed the boat,” a Trumpworld source with knowledge of the meetings says, referring to latecomers to the Trump agenda. The source pointed specifically to the tech sector, where executives have scrambled to show fealty to the new administration.

It’s unclear where the money is going and what it will be used for, but one source with direct knowledge of the dinners said “it’s all going to the library,” as in the presidential library that will ostensibly be built once Trump leaves office. Scoop here:

That “library” will be desecrated and destroyed when, and every time, they build it. FOTUS and his ilk will go down in American history as our biggest mistake, and his name will replace Benedict Arnold as the stereotype for a traitor.

NOBODY. IS. FUCKING. FOOLED. bsky.app/profile/npr....

A Public Citizen report obtained exclusively by NPR shows the new administration has halted or tried to dismiss cases or investigations against at least 89 companies in the last month.

😂 Well they won’t have and actually literature cause they gunna ban all of that. So you’re probably right, it’s the crayons that will be the big cost because MAGA will inevitably eat them on their visits.

I never knew Playboy and Hustler magazines were that expensive. This is all his putrid library will be filled with. Well there may be a lot of scratch and sniff books and the collection of Scholastic booklets. All of the books will include lots of pictures and very few words. Words hurt Shitler.

Such an obvious sham. There will be no library, the entire Trump family is banned from creating or operating nonprofits in the state of NY because they used theirs as a self-enrichment vehicle. They'll do the same here. The library will never happen and the $$$ will disappear.

Show us the receipts, account and whose names appears on it and instructions on administering the funds. There should be a separate account frozen until construction begins on the library.

If you're wondering where we stand on politics coverage, we're not slowing down, or stopping anytime soon. Some words from our Global Editorial Director @katie-drummond.bsky.social:

I had the privilege of talking to @apnews.com about WIRED's Elon Musk and politics coverage. Most important thing: We're not slowing down, we're not stopping, and we're going to cover this story, relentlessly, for as long as we need to. apnews.com/article/elon...

A U.S. president can be impeached for actions taken in a prior term. The Constitution states that a president can be impeached for "Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors," and there is no requirement that these offenses must have occurred during the current term.

I love it. You guys have nailed why tech oligarchs threw their lot in with this regime. I have subscribed again for the first time in years and will keep subscribing. Tech folks can help clean up their own mess, and I'm here for it.

And which book(s) does Trump plan to put in his library? It won't be about the U.S. Constitution. And it won't be a biography of George Washington or Thomas Jefferson. Maybe a book about Hitler's rise to power.

“Once Trump leaves office. “ So it’s going in his pocket as we know he will never willingly leave office. And if for some reason he does, an illiterate like him will not be building a library.
