In September, Donald Trump said in a Truth Social post that he would prosecute Google “at the maximum levels” if elected.
Trump accused the tech giant of “illegally” manipulating its system to highlight “bad stories” about him while promoting positive coverage of his rival, Vice President Kamala Harris.
Business insider said that neither Google nor Trump’s transition team immediately responded to their requests for comment.
Trump’s second inauguration, set for January 20, has attracted significant donations from various companies and business leaders.
Tech giants Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, and Uber have each contributed USD 1 million, matching Google’s donation.
A Microsoft spokesperson had confirmed the company’s USD 1 million donation to Trump’s inaugural fund in a statement to Bloomberg on Thursday. The company had previously donated USD 500,000 each to Trump’s 2017 inauguration and Joe Biden’s 2021 inauguration, according to Bloomberg.
In addition to corporate contributions, personal donations have also poured in. OpenAI CEO Sam Altman and Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi have each donated USD 1 million to support the inauguration.
