NVIDIA AND APPLE EACH GAVE $25M TO TRUMP BALLROOM , WASHINGTON POST SAYS

NVIDIA and Apple each gave $25M to Trump ballroom, signaling major tech political spending.

What happened: Nvidia and Apple each gave $25 million to the White House ballroom project, matching the largest donations on a confidential donor list published by The Washington Post. Key numbers: 67 donations of $10,000 or more totaled $333 million by end of September. Google gave $22 million. Anonymous donors gave $77 million. Why it matters: The Post reported about half the money came from companies or executives holding federal contracts in Trump's second term, and some previously unnamed donors later benefited from regulatory decisions or government contracts.
