Tech leaders worry about the impact of the Musk-Trump fallout as some on the tech right insist the split won’t last; sources say David Sacks was “shell-shocked” by the rift. #Trump #ElonMusk #TechNews #SiliconValley #DavidSacks #Politics #TechIndustry #Leadership #BusinessNews
😿 “That is especially true for members of the ‘#AllIn’ podcast — #DavidSacks, #ChamathPalihapitiya and #JasonCalacanis.”
”There’s a lesser-known commonality linking them together [Peter Thiel, David Sacks and Elon Musk]. They have roots in apartheid-era South Africa.”

#DavidSacks, who is a #crypto adviser to #Trump & another founding member, said the goal is *not* to create a venue for #access😉. Rather, he said in a recent podcast, “we want a place to hang out in DC” for the “younger, hipper, #Trump-aligned #Republican.”
Even as these real-life ventures were playing out, another push for #profit was underway in the virtual world. Investors in the $Trump #memecoin are bidding to become the top 220 owners of the collectible coin & win a dinner w/the president…
Incredible screenshot from a private Signal group chat between among #broligarchs revealing that the smarter ones are not happy with #Trump's #tariffs but the crypto bros like the Winklevoss twins, David Sacks, and Shaun Maguire, in addition to the charlatans like Tucker Carlson, are all in for #MAGA.

Fascinating look at some connections from America's "Crypto & AI Czar" (and Twitter's #1 Vladimir Putin fan) David Sacks to the massive #Wirecard fraud via disgraced Yammer executive Keith McCarty.
(ICYMI Wirecard was a nation state sized Russian money laundering operation disguised as one of the biggest companies in #Germany).

So last night I stumbled across this twenty-five minute interview with Guardian reporter Chris McGreal on Democracy Now!" Most of the conversation centers around the Musk family's longtime connections with Nazism (like literally the Third Reich) and neo-nazi movements, as well as how growing up in Apartheid South Africa shaped Elon Musk's worldview. Interestingly however, this is probably the first time I've ever seen anyone who works in corporate media mention that Peter Thiel, and David Sacks also have deep connections to apartheid societies in Africa. As you're likely aware, all three men have intimate connections with, and have financially supported, Trump and the larger fascist movement that's built around his cult of personality.
I'm sharing it here at least in part because McGreal is very firmly a mainstream media source, and until very recently this type of background information on the billionaire nazis ruining our society as we speak, really didn't get a lot of play in the mainstream media. This kind of critical background information wasn't necessarily a "secret," but corporate media has always been far too fawning towards tech billionaires to bring up "inconvenient truths" like the reality that the richest guy in the world, who is currently helping to enact a white nationalist agenda in America, comes from a family full of cracker nazis.
Edit: to be clear, I'm not saying that nobody ever rises above a reactionary upbringing here; I grew up in just such an environment myself and I think I've done a pretty good job of not turning out to be a nazi. If however, someone, let's just say a handful of the richest guys on earth, spends a lot of time promoting fascist, white supremacist ideology, and helping fascists and white supremacists win elections, and then directly influences policy decisions that affect entire countries (if not the world) in a way that promotes fascist, white supremacist hierarchies, the fact that they were raised in an Apartheid environment surrounded by people who love nazis, is probably relevant. Sorry for the edit; I forgot we live on the dumbest timeline and thus you have to explain things like this to avoid disingenuous muppetry.

🔎 #DavidSacks Beyaz Saray’a Girmeden 200 Milyon Dolarlık Satış Yaptı
🔸 Sacks, göreve başlamadan önce kripto para ve hisse senetlerini sattı.
🔸 Satışlar, çıkar çatışmasını önlemek amacıyla gerçekleştirildi.
surprise, surprise: Trump gave #DavidSacks (pro #Putin, anti-#Ukraine All In Podcast broligarch and America's "crypto & AI czar") a waiver on any and all financial conflicts of interest that could result from Sacks using taxpayer money to enrich himself by investing in his crypto & AI scams.
(i will note that Sacks claims to have divested himself of his crypto investments but i find it impossible to believe he isn't at least indirectly financially exposed to the crypto market)
Remember, it was Sacks who helped propose the #StrategicCryptoReserve which proposed that US taxpayers invest in the same 5 cryptocurrencies held by Sacks's company #Bitwise.

Synes du Donald Trump og JD Vance virker helt tullerusk og bare gjør masse faenskap utenriks mens Musk vaser rundt med motorsag innenriks? Det kan være en plan bak alt sammen.
