Elizabeth Warren calls Zuck and Thiel’s secret Trump White House dinner “corrupt” / Boing Boing:

Others have pointed out that CEOs have often met in private with presidents, but these meetings are not typically secret, and it’s hard to understand what non-corrupt purpose Trump, Zuck and Thiel could have had for failing to disclose the dinner — perhaps they knew we’d been pleasantly surprised later on and didn’t want to spoil it?

For Zuck’s part, he likes to claim that he frequently dines with political activists from “across the spectrum” but when his actual dining agenda is analyzed even cursorily, it becomes obvious that for Zuck, the political spectrum runs all the way from “very right wing” to “raving lunatic Bircher neo-Nazi right wing” with stops for all the flavors of right wing in between.
