JIMENEZ And one of ░░░░░░░░ outside of this of ░░░░░░░░ I mean one of ░░░░░░░░ main focuses has been ░░░░░░░░ President Elect Trump s ░░░░░░░░ picks which again we ░░░░░░░░ were targeted as part ░░░░░░░░ this as well but ░░░░░░░░ lot of what we ░░░░░░░░ been keeping an eye ░░░░░░░░ is sort of this ░░░░░░░░ door out of Mar ░░░░░░░░ Lago to see who ░░░░░░░░ coming to meet with ░░░░░░░░ president elect and whether ░░░░░░░░ translates to something more ░░░░░░░░ ve seen a lot ░░░░░░░░ that in the tech ░░░░░░░░ I mean Elon Musk ░░░░░░░░ think is maybe the ░░░░░░░░ prominent example We saw ░░░░░░░░ I mean during Thanksgiving ░░░░░░░░ was seen at Mar ░░░░░░░░ Lago with Trump and ░░░░░░░░ of his family members ░░░░░░░░ also Meta CEO Mark ░░░░░░░░ has been down there ░░░░░░░░ points There s Elon ░░░░░░░░ dancing to YMCA with ░░░░░░░░ president elect there I ░░░░░░░░ overall what do you ░░░░░░░░ of their relationship But ░░░░░░░░ when you think of ░░░░░░░░ Mark Zuckerberg of it ░░░░░░░░ what do you make ░░░░░░░░ tech leaders and how ░░░░░░░░ re approaching this incoming ░░░░░░░░ KUCINICH Well Elon Musk ░░░░░░░░ to be he s ░░░░░░░░ one category right He ░░░░░░░░ much backed the president ░░░░░░░░ During the election he ░░░░░░░░ become a fixture at ░░░░░░░░ a Lago like an ░░░░░░░░ family member or something ░░░░░░░░ he s been helping ░░░░░░░░ we know from reporting ░░░░░░░░ s been helping vet ░░░░░░░░ of these cabinet nominees ░░░░░░░░ is not in the ░░░░░░░░ but is part of ░░░░░░░░ new organization himself trying ░░░░░░░░ reduce government waste That ░░░░░░░░ then you look at ░░░░░░░░ people like Mark Zuckerberg ░░░░░░░░ has been a target ░░░░░░░░ President Elect Trump s ░░░░░░░░ over you know the ░░░░░░░░ he s been very ░░░░░░░░ of Facebook and Meta ░░░░░░░░ some of the restrictions ░░░░░░░░ were put on him ░░░░░░░░ the January 6th Now ░░░░░░░░ really seems like be ░░░░░░░░ Jeff Bezos or Mark ░░░░░░░░ they re really trying ░░░░░░░░ make nice with President ░░░░░░░░ Trump they ve really ░░░░░░░░ out a hand and ░░░░░░░░ s why you see ░░░░░░░░ meetings continue We ll ░░░░░░░░ if these you never ░░░░░░░░ if these relationships are ░░░░░░░░ to hold with the ░░░░░░░░ elect but it seems ░░░░░░░░ they re really trying ░░░░░░░░ forge a new era ░░░░░░░░ him perhaps because they ░░░░░░░░ afraid of what he ░░░░░░░░ do rhetorically and you ░░░░░░░░ potentially with regulations going ░░░░░░░░ his next term.”
