Former President Donald Trump writes in a new book set to be published next week that Mark Zuckerberg plotted against him during the 2020 election and said the Meta chief executive would “spend the rest of his life in prison” if he did it again.

It represents Trump’s most recent attack on Zuckerberg, who he has repeatedly accused of intervening in the last presidential election. And it comes as Meta has taken steps to assure conservatives it will not influence this year’s campaign.

“Save America,” a Trump-authored coffee table book being released Sept. 3, includes an undated photograph of Trump meeting with Zuckerberg in the White House. Under the photo, Trump writes that Zuckerberg “would come to the Oval Office to see me. He would bring his very nice wife to dinners, be as nice as anyone could be, while always plotting to install shameful Lock Boxes in a true PLOT AGAINST THE PRESIDENT,” Trump added, referring to a $420 millioncontribution Zuckerberg and his wife, Priscilla Chan, made during the 2020 election to fund election infrastructure.

“He told me there was nobody like Trump on Facebook. But at the same time, and for whatever reason, steered it against me,” Trump continues. “We are watching him closely, and if he does anything illegal this time he will spend the rest of his life in prison — as will others who cheat in the 2024 Presidential Election.”

Trump has made similar remarks about Zuckerberg before. Trump wrote in a July post on Truth Social that if elected he would pursue “ELECTION FRAUDSTERS at levels never seen before, and they will be sent to prison for long periods of time. We already know who you are. DON’T DO IT! ZUCKERBUCKS, be careful!”

A Meta spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Republicans have criticized Meta for suppressing content that would have damaged President Joe Biden in 2020, most notably reporting about the then-candidate’s son, Hunter. At the time, the FBI warned the coverage may have been part of a Russian-orchestrated effort to influence the election.

Zuckerberg sent a letter on Monday to the Republican-controlled House Judiciary Committee acknowledging it was a mistake to have suppressed the story, saying it has “since been made clear that the reporting was not Russian disinformation, and in retrospect, we shouldn’t have demoted the story,”

In the same letter, Zuckerberg wrote that the Biden administration had tried to “pressure” Meta to downplay certain content about Covid-19, which he said was “wrong” for the White House to have done. Zuckerberg also said he would not make similar contributions to fund election infrastructure ahead of this year’s election, though he also stressed that the funding was not intended to appear partisan in nature.

“Save America” is being released by Winning Team Publishing, which was co-founded by Donald Trump Jr. and Sergio Gor, a Trump ally.

sergio Gor (born November 30, 1986) is an American businessman and political operative in the United States.^[1] He led Right for America, a super PAC supporting president Donald Trump, during the 2024 United States presidential election.^[2] During the election, he published Our Journey Together, Letters to Trump (2023),^[3] and Save America (2024)^[4] through Winning Team Publishing,^[5] a publishing house he operates with Trump's eldest son Donald Trump, Jr.^[6] He served as a delegate at the 2024 Republican National Convention.^[7]

Early life and education

Gor was born on November 30, 1986,^[8] allegedly in Cospicua, Malta, though the Maltese government could not confirm his birth in Malta. At age 12, in 1999, he emigrated to the United States with his family.^[9] He attended high school in the suburbs of Los Angeles, and later studied at George Washington University in Washington, D.C.[citation ^needed]

Career

Early career

Gor wore a squirrel costume in a stunt against Barack Obama in 2008.^[10] After graduating from university, he worked for the Republican National Committee and served as a staff member for representatives Randy Forbes, Michele Bachmann, and Steve King.^[10]

Gor also worked as an Associate Producer for Fox News, Deputy Chief of Staff for senator Rand Paul, and officiated the wedding of former representative Matt Gaetz.^[11] He was a top fundraising official for Trump's 2020 re-election campaign and founded the pro-Trump super PAC Right for America, which spent nearly $72 million during the 2024 campaign.^[12]

White House Presidential Personnel Office

On November 13, 2024, Semafor reported that Trump had offered Gor the position of director of the White House Presidential Personnel Office during his second presidency.^[13] Gor assumed the role on January 20, 2025, and implemented loyalty tests to ensure political appointees supported Trump's agenda and had not donated to Democrats.^[12] At the end of February 2025, Politico reported that Gor was among White House employees frustrated by Elon Musk's lack of consultation with the personnel office regarding decisions for the Department of Government Efficiency.^[14]

Gor played a significant role in the withdrawal of Jared Isaacman's nomination to lead NASA in June 2025. Isaacman, a tech billionaire and associate of Elon Musk, had been approved by the Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation with a 19-9 vote on April 30, 2025, and was expected to secure strong Senate support.^[12] However, Gor lobbied against the nomination, highlighting Isaacman's past donations to Democrats, which led to Trump withdrawing the nomination, citing "prior associations" after a review.^[12][15] The decision contributed to tensions between Trump and Musk, with Gor's influence cited as a factor in their public falling out.^[12]

Gor is a frequent presence at Mar-a-Lago and maintains a close relationship with former Marvel executive Isaac Perlmutter, a major Trump donor and ally.^[12]

In June 2025 media revealed Gor hasn't gone through security clearance process and pointed out inconsistencies in the details of his biography.^[16] Subsequently security researcher Brian Krebs revealed that Gor's email account used a password identical to those used by Russian national Sergey Anatolyevich Goryachev, born on November 20, 1980, in Saratov, Russia, for his own email accounts, which were registered in Russia.^[17] On June 20, 2025, via Twitter, Brian Krebs recanted his prior research and stated, "I posted research on Mastodon/LinkedIn this week questioning Sergio Gor's background. Immediately after learning of a critical error in that analysis, I deleted the posts as they were no longer supported by the facts. I regret that error, and apologize for leading anyone astray."^[18] Gor was known to locals in Malta as "a Russian boy".^[19]

On June 18, Elon Musk lashed out at Gor online, calling his identity into question, and calling him a "snake".^[20] Musk later clarified that he was accusing Gor of having committed "a serious crime.”^[21] Senate Republicans hold Gor responsible for undermining the nomination of Isaacman at NASA.^[22]

Personal life

Gor is an amateur disc jockey in the Palm Beach, Florida area.^[11] He is fluent in English^[10] and Maltese.^[9]

he issue of his alleged name/nationality

how should the issue of his alleged name/nationality be handled on this page? it's mentioned in a single paragraph, but does this being warrant being mentioned in the opening paragraph as well, or should it wait until more information comes out about this? StudentOfEtherium (talk) 19:12, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a thread to follow: https://bsky.app/profile/igorsushko.bsky.social/post/3lrzmwhxc522tOstensibly, he is Sergio Goryachev, born in Russia not Malta. Nomoskedasticity (talk) 19:23, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]i saw that, which is what prompted me to mention it here. is this enough to mention in the opening paragraph/infobox, or should we wait for more to come out about this? StudentOfEtherium (talk) 19:24, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]i found him as sergey gorokhovsky: https://nypost.com/2025/06/17/us-news/sergio-gor-trump-aide-who-vets-thousands-of-staffers-hasnt-been-fully-vetted-himself-sources/ Edward Mike005 (talk) 21:19, 20 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]Perhaps it makes sense to keep all versions of gossip in the text in the hope that one of them will be confirmed someday. Sergey Kondrashov (talk) 21:56, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]The Maltese Herald did some fact checking:https://themalteseherald.com/2025/06/21/sergio-gor-lived-in-malta-between-3-and-12-years-old/He was born in Russia (Soviet Union at the time) and moved to Maltese around the age of 3 years old and lived in Malta until he was 12 years of age. He was known as the Russian boy as his parents were both Russian.It's highly probable, given that the New York Times of extremely Pro-Trump and a conservative news station, that this actually DID lead somewhere, but due to pressure from the Trump administration, was quickly silenced. However, since then multiple news stations not in the US have continued to investigate. The fact is that the Maltese government CAN NOT confirm his birth, and can only confirm he immigrated to Malta from the Soviet Union to Russian parents at the age of 3. Which is still lying on a form of he was never born in Malta as he claimed on his intake form. Hourumiyamoto (talk) 06:21, 23 June 2025 (UTC)
