Zuckerberg To Fundraise For Gov. Christie, Republican Who Criticized His Own Party
Facebook founder and business celebrity Mark Zuckerberg will be hosting a high-profile fundraiser at his Palo Alto home for New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, a.k.a "The Boss." The two allegedly became political BFF's after appearing on Oprah together with Newark Mayor, Cory Booker, who received an extraordinary $100M donation from Zuckerberg to improve the city's schools. The fundraiser is especially notable since Christie has gone on some some epic rants against his own party, meaning that the fundraiser is not a clear win for the Republican establishment as a whole, which historically hasn't gotten much financial love from Silicon Valley.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/V7zabvyol7w/
