Trump says 'only a Hispanic could survive' fall from White House ballroom

The Hill
What the coverage shows
Coverage splits between a dinner report and a broader White House AI meeting. The New York Times is alone in foregrounding Dario Amodei’s planned private dinner with Trump and says Trump has dismissed his cautions, while Forbes, Al Jazeera and The Guardian US focus on the AI accord itself, with The Guardian US alone highlighting a spelling error in the document. The Independent is the only outlet to connect the White House meeting to a later FTC investigation.
