Trump, Musk, and Tech Titans Face Firestorms!

Donald Trump faced mounting challenges on multiple fronts, including scrutiny over his handling of the economy and immigration, ethical concerns surrounding his foray into cryptocurrency, and renewed attention on his past associations with Jeffrey Epstein, according to various news reports. The Justice Department recently released another tranche of files from its investigation into Epstein, the deceased financier and convicted sex trafficker, who had ties to Trump, Elon Musk, and Bill Gates, as reported by Vox.

Trump's venture into the cryptocurrency market also drew criticism. Multiple news sources indicated that after embracing cryptocurrency, Trump launched his own memecoin, raising ethical questions about using blockchain ventures to sell access, including a private audience with top holders. A Wall Street Journal report, cited by Fortune, revealed that associates of Abu Dhabi's royal family planned to invest $500 million into Trump's crypto platform for a 49% ownership stake.

Meanwhile, San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie was reportedly working to revitalize the city's economy by attracting major events like Super Bowl LX and the FIFA World Cup, according to Time.

The Epstein case continued to generate headlines, with multiple news sources reporting on resignations linked to the scandal, including those of Dr. Peter Attia and Miroslav Lajčák, as reported by Variety. The accidental unsealing of sexual assault victims' identities in Epstein files also added to the controversy.

In other news, Elon Musk's social media platform X faced scrutiny in France. French prosecutors, supported by Europol, raided X and summoned Musk and former CEO Linda Yaccarino for questioning in April regarding suspected abuse of algorithms, deepfake images, and concerns over AI chatbot Grok's content, leading the prosecutor's office to leave the platform, according to Time.

Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos testified before a Senate subcommittee regarding the company's attempt to buy a large part of Warner Bros. Discovery, facing concerns about potential antitrust issues and accusations from Republican senators of producing overly "woke" content, according to The Verge. A competing bid from Paramount Skydance complicated the acquisition.
