A landmark antitrust trial against Meta is scheduled to begin on April 14, 2025.
Mark Zuckerberg unexpectedly met with Donald J. Trump in the Oval Office on Wednesday.
There is growing concern that Mr. Trump may pressure the FTC to abandon the antitrust case.
"The social media giant’s recent about-face on a number of issues where it once clashed with Republicans
suggests Meta is willing to dramatically alter its policies to appease the president and the GOP.""Once despised by Trump and other Republicans for his alleged pro-liberal bias, Zuckerberg over the last several months has apologized for removing Covid-19 disinformation and downplaying posts about Hunter Biden’s laptop, elevated long-time Republicans Joel Kaplan and Kevin Martin to serve as his top lobbyists, ditched the company’s fact-checking program, donated $1 million to Trump’s inaugural fund and hosted an inauguration party for the president."https://www.politico.com/news/2025/04/06/washington-worries-trump-could-bail-out-zuckerberg-00273712
