Big Tech quietly sponsors Trump’s military parade party

Major tech and defense companies are sponsoring festivities for Trump's military parade in Washington, DC, while US taxpayers cover the cost of the soldiers, tanks and planes. According to America250, Oracle, Amazon, Coinbase, Lockheed Martin and Palantir are among its highest-profile sponsors, and the nonprofit is handling spectator logistics for the June 14 parade. Amazon, Palantir and Oracle did not confirm their involvement, while Lockheed Martin confirmed its sponsorship. Meta was listed as a top-level sponsor until America250 removed its logo after The Verge asked, and Meta said it is not currently a sponsor.
