Trump Hosts Tech Titans While Tariff Drama Hits Supreme Court
On September 4, 2025, President Donald Trump, in an epic CEO-meets-politics mashup, asked the Supreme Court to reverse their ruling that declared most of his sweeping trade tariffs illegal — a move about as subtle as a sledgehammer at a tea party. Meanwhile, he hosted a dinner in the freshly renovated White House Rose Garden, apparently part-corporate boardroom, part-politics reality show. Guests included Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg, Apple’s Tim Cook, Microsoft’s Bill Gates, and OpenAI’s Sam Altman — basically the Avengers of tech minus the capes but with uber-billionaire powers and zero spider senses. Rumor has it, the dinner’s theme was 'Who Actually Pays Tariffs Anyway?'
