Donald Trump’s President bid is in damage control after dined with a renowned white supremacist and Kanye West ‘Ye’

At Trump’s Florida Estate, the former U.S. President has admitted to hosting ‘Ye’ but denies inviting far-right commentator Nick Fuentes.

Fuentes is known for spreading racial hate speech, and denying the holocaust.

According to Trump, Fuentes was Ye’s dinner guest, but insists he didn’t know who he was.

“So I help a seriously troubled man, who just happens to be black Ye (Kanye West), who had been decimated in his business and virtually everything else, and who had always been good to me, by allowing his request for a meeting at Mar-a-Lago, alone, so that I can give him very much needed ‘advice.’

He shows up with 3 people, two of which I didn’t know.”

It follows a turbulent time for ‘Ye’ following anti-semitic comments he made about the Jewish community.

Many are saying the dinner was an unusual move for Trump, as he endeavours to return to President in 2024.

However, The White House has condemned the meeting amid a deeply divisive political landscape in America.

To my friend Donald Trump, you are better than this. Even a social visit from an antisemite like Kanye West and human scum like Nick Fuentes is unacceptable. I urge you to throw those bums out, disavow them and relegate them to the dustbin of history where they belong. 1/

EU probes Meta’s WhatsApp AI chatbot policy for potential antitrust violations affecting third-party developers and competition.

The European Commission has opened an antitrust investigation into Meta over WhatsApp’s new AI chatbot policy. The inquiry examines whether the policy restricts third-party AI developers from accessing WhatsApp’s business tools, potentially breaching EU competition rules.

Meta updated its terms, effective January 2026, which have already barred new AI providers since October 15. The rules prohibit AI developers from using WhatsApp as their primary service, affecting a number of AI companies looking to integrate with the platform.

The EU’s competition commissioner is considering interim measures to ensure fair competition. If Meta is found in violation, it could face fines of up to 10% of its global annual revenue.
