Billionaire attendance at Trump’s inauguration
A parade of tech billionaires and key members of his orbit joined President-elect Donald Trump as he kicked off his inaugural day celebrations with a church service on Monday morning. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, Meta boss Mark Zuckerberg, Apple leader Tim Cook, and Google chief Sundar Pichai were seen taking their prime seats at St John's Church.

Alphabet's Google, along with other companies such as Amazon and Meta, donated $1 million each to Trump's inaugural fund. Trump will likely dial back some of the antitrust policies pursued under former President Joe Biden, potentially including a bid to break up Google over its dominance in online search, experts said.
