$1MM seems to be the mandated tribute. Zuckerberg (Meta) and Altman (OpenAI) have contributed that amount to the slush fund AKA inauguration fund.
Bezos (Amazon) contributed the same. He learned his lesson from refusing to bend the knee the first time around and Trump retaliated by attacking Amazon's USPS deal and torpedoed the cloud contract with the Pentagon. Bezos rightfully learned his lesson that you must pay the tribute.
Zuck learned his lesson too, last time Trump said he should be jailed. He too, learned the price tag of resisting. The exortion is much costlier.
