President Trump awards Big Tech donors with nation’s highest science prizes

THE THING NOBODY EXPLAINED PROPERLY IS THAT SIX BILLION DOLLARS IS A BANANAS AMOUNT OF CASH AND THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THESE TECH TITANS DONATED TO TRUMP STUFF BEFORE GETTING THESE MASSIVE SCIENCE MEDALS, WHICH IS WILD BECAUSE IT INCLUDES PEOPLE LIKE ELON MUSK, JENSEN HUANG, AND SERGEY BRIN ALL GRABBING THE NATIONAL MEDAL OF SCIENCE AT THIS SUMMIT. AND THEN YOU HAVE MICHAEL DELL AND SATYA NADELLA GRABBING THE TECH AND INNOVATION MEDAL WHILE AMD IS OUT HERE DONATING TO SUPER PACS AND THE DELLS ARE PLEDGING OVER SIX BILLION TO THESE TRUMP ACCOUNTS FOR KIDS! BUT GET THIS, NADELLA GETS HIS MEDAL RIGHT AFTER THE ADMINISTRATION BLOCKS MICROSOFT FROM HIRING FOREIGN WORKERS ON H-1B VISAS WHICH IS TOTALLY CONFUSING AND I HAVE NO IDEA IF THAT IS GOOD OR BAD. ANYWAY YOU WILL SEE IT ON YOUR PHONE IN AN HOUR.

YOU KNOW THAT THING EVERYONE PREDICTED ABOUT TECH LEADERS AND POLITICS WELL NOW IT IS HAPPENING BECAUSE PRESIDENT TRUMP JUST HANDED OUT THE NATION'S TOP SCIENCE PRIZES TO A BUNCH OF BIG TECH DONORS LIKE MUSK, HUANG, BRIN, AND LISA SU. THE ARTICLE SAYS THESE GUYS AND THEIR COMPANIES PUMPED NEARLY SIX BILLION DOLLARS INTO TRUMP-RELATED INAUGURATION FUNDS AND PROGRAMS, WHICH IS A LOT OF MONEY TO JUST THROW AROUND FOR A MEDAL. THEN TRUMP IS TALKING ABOUT PIONEERING THE FUTURE WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY SUSPENDING MICROSOFT FROM THE H-1B WORKER PROGRAM, SO MICROSOFT IS GETTING A MEDAL AND A KICK TO THE TEETH AT THE SAME TIME WHICH IS FRANKLY JUST VERY WEIRD STUFF. NOBODY REALLY SAYS WHY HE IS DOING BOTH AT ONCE BUT IT SURE IS SOMETHING TO WATCH. ANYWAY THIS SONG IS ACTUALLY MY FAVOURITE.

President Trump awarded National Medals of Science and Technology to several tech leaders, including Elon Musk, Satya Nadella, and Michael Dell, who have collectively donated nearly $6 billion to his efforts.
