David Sacks is the Silicon Valley billionaire who recently held a fundraiser for Donald Trump that brought in $12 million in one night.

This week he appeared on the Jesse Watters show and explained why he and other people in his orbit have thrown their support behind Trump.

To listen to David, it sounds like people in this world have completely lost faith in Biden and Kamala Harris and it’s easy to see why.

Transcript via Real Clear Politics:

DAVID SACKS, ‘ALL-IN’ CO-HOST: I think it’s getting surprisingly big, Jesse. When we agreed to do the fundraiser for President Trump the goal was just to raise $5 million and weren’t even sure we would do that because as you well know, Silicon Valley is pretty much a liberal bastion. But we ended up raising $12 million.

We had over a hundred people there and it really was a total love fest. And then out in the streets, the San Francisco newspaper has been trying all week to gin up protesters and nothing really materialized at all but hundreds of people to demonstrate in favor President Trump and they were cheering all along his motorcade so if that’s the enthusiasm gap in a liberal place at San Francisco, what is a tell you about the rest of the country?

WATTERS: It tells a lot and we have seen it across the country, in the bodegas, in Compton, pretty much everywhere, it just shocks you. You said there was a lot of love for Trump in the room, that’s obviously people definitely there to donate. Is that of the anti-Biden feeling or is it to the pro-Trump feeling? How would you define it?

SACKS: We had a lot of people in that room who had never donated to Republicans before or to Trump, they were new donors or they have always been Democrat donors and yet they came out. And I think I entreat that to the fact that Trump is making inroads into Silicon Valley and that also Biden is really alienating people.

He’s really pursued a very hostile program towards innovation. He’s been very hostile towards crypto, he’s wanted to over regulate AI, he’s basically shut down all M&A. So I think there are a lot of people in technology who are asking what good is this for us? How does it help us to have another four years of President Biden? And I believe that Trump has basically declared that he is the crypto president, he is in favor of innovation, he is willing to listen. I think he listened extremely well to people in that room and he fundamentally he wants America to do well.

I think that people in tech who get to meet the president, get to get to know him, they see that he really cares. And I think they can be won over by him and I think are being won over by him.

Jurors on Tuesday returned a verdict in Hunter Biden’s criminal gun trial after three hours of deliberations.

GUILTY OF ALL THREE FELONIES!

Hunter Biden is facing 25 years in prison.

One Hunter Biden juror told The New York Post that the defense team made a critical mistake by calling Hunter’s daughter, Naomi, to the stand to testify.

Another juror told The New York Post that Naomi’s testimony did not help Hunter’s case.

Naomi Biden, 30, testified that her father texted her at 2 am just days after he illegally purchased a revolver asking her to meet up so they can swap cars.

Naomi said that she was sad her crack-addicted father missed another planned event.

The jurors said Naomi’s testimony didn’t work out as the defense team hoped.

The New York Post reported:

Two of the jurors who convicted first son Hunter Biden on federal gun charges Tuesday told The Post they were particularly affected by his eldest daughter Naomi’s testimony – with one panelist saying the defense team made a mistake calling her as a witness.

Naomi Biden, 30, recounted her father’s erratic behavior in the days after he illegally lied about his crack cocaine addiction to purchase a .38-caliber revolver on Oct. 12, 2018.

At one point, she said, Hunter had texted her at 2 a.m. on Oct. 18, asking if Naomi could meet him somewhere in Manhattan to exchange cars after she used his Ford Raptor pickup to help move her then-boyfriend Peter Neal into her apartment.

“I’m really sad, dad,” Naomi texted Hunter later that day after he missed out on another planned rendezvous. “I can’t take this. I don’t know what to say. I just miss you so much. And want to hang out with you.”

“It just seemed so sad for her to see her father in such a state,” one juror, a 51-year-old black woman from upper Delaware, told The Post. “She was happy when she thought he was getting better, then he relapsed.”

“I just think she probably just wants her dad to be like he was before her uncle [Beau Biden] died [in May 2015],” she added. “And to be able to depend on him.”

Prosecutors proved that Hunter Biden was smoking crack when he purchased a firearm in 2018.

According to text messages sent to Hallie Biden (Hunter’s sister-in-law-turned lover), Hunter Biden set up a drug deal with “Mookie” one day after he illegally purchased his gun on October 12, 2018.

One day after purchasing his gun on Oct. 12, 2018, Hunter Biden sets up a drug deal with “Mookie” at the 7/11 on Greenhill and Lancaster.

This will not put an end to the “Creepy Joe” taunts from conservatives.

As the Gateway Pundit reported earlier today, jurors returned a guilty verdict in Hunter Biden’s gun trial after merely three hours of deliberations. He now faces up to 25 years in prison.

His dad, Joe Biden, released a noxious statement afterward slobbering over his son while ignoring his crimes. But he did not stop there.

The Regime leader then dared to deliver a disgusting speech pushing gun control and THREATEN Trump supporters in the process, while rambling about banning “assault weapons.”

But before the speech, Biden went straight to Wilmington Delaware rather than returning to the White House. There, he met Hunter, his wife, and four-year-old son Beau Biden Jr. in his home state for a little reunion.

Things proceeded to get a bit strange. In a video making its way around social media, Joe Biden bears down on his grandchild, whispering something in his ear (or sniffing his hair?).

Then he wraps the child’s head with both hands and kisses him right on the lips.

Hunter and his wife finally lead a visibly uncomfortable little Beau, Jr. away from his weird grandpa and toward safety.

While some people will dismiss this episode and say this is just his grandchild, we all know how Joe Biden acts in a similar fashion around little kids who he has no relation with.

Of course, we all know how Ashley feels about him.

A federal judge on Tuesday struck down Florida’s ban on sex changes for children.

Last year the Florida legislature passed a law banning anyone under the age of 18 from undergoing sex change surgeries or taking cross-sex hormones.

Governor Ron DeSantis (R) signed the legislation and now a Clinton-appointed activist in a black robe has overturned Florida’s law protecting children from being mutilated.

US District Judge Robert Hinkle struck down Florida’s ban on child mutilation, calling it “unconstitutional.”

“Gender identity is real,” Judge Hinkle wrote in his 105-page decision. “Those whose gender identity does not match their natal sex often suffer gender dysphoria. The widely accepted standard of care calls for appropriate evaluation and treatment.”

The judge continued, “For minors, this means evaluation and treatment by a multidisciplinary team. Proper treatment begins with mental-health therapy and is followed in appropriate cases by GnRH agonists and cross-sex hormones – referred to in this order as gender-affirming care. Florida has adopted a statute and rules that ban gender-affirming care for minors even when medically appropriate. The ban is unconstitutional.”

A spokesperson for DeSantis told Fox News that the governor will appeal the judge’s decision.

Excerpt from Fox News:

A federal judge in Florida has ruled that the state government’s rules on transgender treatments for children are unconstitutional.

U.S. District Judge Robert Hinkle ruled against the state regulations in his 105-page decision, in which he asserted that restricting children’s access to transgender procedures was an act of “animus.”

DeSantis signed SB 254 into law last year, prohibiting anyone under age 18 from undergoing sex-reassignment surgeries or taking cross-sex hormones to treat gender dysphoria.

The bill was passed by both houses of the Florida state legislature prior to DeSantis’s final approval.

Jeremy Redfern, DeSantis’ press secretary, told Fox News Digital that the Florida government plans to appeal the decision.

“Through their elected representatives, the people of Florida acted to protect children in this state, and the Court was wrong to override their wishes. We disagree with the Court’s erroneous rulings on the law, on the facts, and on the science,” he said in a Tuesday statement.

Gigantic South Korean loudspeakers blare BTS music. Large North Korean balloons carry manure, cigarette butts, and waste batteries. Small South Korean civilian leaflets slam North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

This dystopian psychological warfare scenario is starting to play again like the height of the Cold War era, leaving the distension of 2018 so far in the past that it’s like it never even happened.

The heavily fortified border is again filled with tensions.

Associated Press reported:

“On Sunday, South Korea redeployed its gigantic loudspeakers along the border for the first time in six years and resumed anti-Pyongyang propaganda broadcasts. The broadcasts reportedly included K-pop sensation BTS’s mega-hits like ‘Butter’ and ‘Dynamite’, weather forecasts, and news on Samsung, the biggest South Korean company, as well as outside criticism of the North’s missile program and its crackdown on foreign video.

South Korean officials say the ear-piercing broadcasts were retaliation against North Korea’s recent series of balloon launches that dumped trash into South Korea, though it suffered no major damages. The North says its balloon campaign was a tit-for-tat action against South Korean activists flying political leaflets critical of its leadership across the border.”

For North Korea, the broadcasts and leafleting campaigns are a huge provocation. They reinstalled its own propaganda loudspeakers at the border, but haven’t switched them on.

The psychological warfare, that the two Koreas agreed to halt in 2018, is fully back on.

“Some frontline North Korean soldiers testified after their defections to South Korea that they had enjoyed South Korean broadcasts that contained pop songs and accurate weather forecasts that warned of potential rain and advised them to gather up laundry hung on outdoor clotheslines.

In 2015, when South Korea restarted loudspeaker broadcasts for the first time in 11 years, North Korea fired artillery rounds across the border, prompting the South to return fire, according to South Korean officials. No casualties were reported.”

Back in 2018, things were much calmer, and North Korea even received some of the South’s biggest pop stars for a rare performance. Kim reportedly called it a ‘gift to Pyongyang citizens’.

The psychological warfare increases the risks of direct military clashes between the Koreas.

“Diplomacy between the two countries remains derailed since a broader U.S.-North Korea nuclear diplomacy collapsed in 2019. So it could be difficult for the rivals to set up talks as an off-ramp to get off the cycle of tit-for-tat tensions.”

And the threat of escalation and direct conflict is by no means simply a theory, since it now arises that a skirmish at the border has led to South Korean troops firing warning shots:

Daily Beast reported:

“South Korea’s military fired warning shots when a group of around 20 North Korean soldiers crossed the nations’ land border over the weekend, Seoul’s Joint Chiefs of Staff said Tuesday.

The northern troops crossed the military demarcation line inside the DMZ separating the two countries at around 12:30 p.m. on Sunday, according to a JCS spokesman. The breach took place amid heightened tensions between the two countries over the waves of balloons carrying trash and excrement which Kim Jong Un’s regime has floated southwards over the border.”

Academy award winner Kevin Spacey broke down in tears on TV, as he told British host Piers Morgan that he is broke, owes millions for his extensive legal bills, and the house he has lived in since 2016 is being foreclosed.

In an appearance in Piers Morgan Uncensored, Spacey spoke of the devastating effects that the multiple allegations of sex offenses against him have had on his career, with the #metoo movement leaving him unable to work, sending him from stardom to insolvency.

Spacey was cancelled, can’t work, and is broke.

“Piers Morgan: Where do you live now? 

Kevin Spacey: Well, it’s funny you ask that question, because this week where I have been living in Baltimore is being foreclosed on.  My house is being sold at auction.  Really? So I have to go back to Baltimore and put all my things in storage.

So the answer to that question is I’m not quite sure where I’m going to live now, but I’ve been in Baltimore since we started shooting House of Cards there.

Piers Morgan: So how long is that?

Kevin Spacey:  I moved there [Baltimore] in 2012. […] This [house] has been my home and Evan and Lucy’s home since 2016.

Piers Morgan: Why is it being foreclosed? 

Kevin Spacey: Because I can’t pay the bills that I owe. 

Piers Morgan:  Are you facing bankruptcy? 

Kevin Spacey: Been a couple of times when I thought I was going to file, but we’ve managed to sort of dodge it, at least as of today. 

The usual suspects: Specey with Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton, Ghislaine Maxwell and Harvey Weinstein.

Piers Morgan:  How much money do you have? 

Kevin Spacey: None.

Piers Morgan: Really? 

Kevin Spacey: Well, I mean, you know, you have some sense of legal bills.

Piers Morgan: Yeah.

Kevin Spacey: I still owe a lot of legal bills that I have not been able to pay.

Piers Morgan:  You’re actually in debt? 

Kevin Spacey: Yes.

Piers Morgan: Do you mind me asking how much you owe?

Kevin Spacey: It’s considerable. 

Piers Morgan: Millions? 

Kevin Spacey: Many millions, yes.”

Lunden Roberts, the mother of Hunter Biden’s ‘love child’ Navy Joan Roberts, appeared on Megyn Kelly’s podcast “The Megyn Kelly Show” to discuss what she has been through since finding out she was pregnant with Hunter’s baby.

Hunter had a child with Lunden Roberts after meeting her at a DC strip joint where she worked as a stripper.

The lovechild, Navy Joan Roberts, was born in August 2018.

Roberts told Megyn Kelly how her cell phones were mysteriously wiped shortly after she found out she was pregnant with Hunter’s baby, and how it appeared someone was deleting records of her relationship with Hunter.

“What happened with your cell phones the night you found out you were pregnant?” Megyn Kelly asked Lunden Roberts.

Roberts said she had two cell phones and they both crashed at the same time the night she found out she was pregnant with Hunter’s baby.

“That night at the same time they both crashed in front of me and my friends,” Lunden Roberts said.

“And what did the screens look like when they were crashing?” Megyn Kelly asked.

Lunden Roberts said her phones went black with horizontal lines so she went to get a new phone the next day and that is when she discovered just about everything related to Hunter Biden was deleted from her iCloud.

“So what do you think happened there?” Megyn Kelly asked.

“That is still up in the air,” Lunden Roberts said. “I can’t explain. I don’t know what happened.”

Megyn Kelly asked if she believes there were government forces trying to protect Hunter and Joe Biden.

“You always wonder that. It’s been in the back of my mind,” Lunden Roberts said.

WATCH:

Hunter Biden has fought Lunden Roberts over child support payments and even asked a judge to prevent his daughter Navy Joan from taking the Biden name.

It took FIVE YEARS for Joe Biden to acknowledge his granddaughter Navy Joan.

In 2019, Joe Biden lashed out at Fox News reporter Peter Doocy for asking about his new granddaughter born to Hunter and Lunden Roberts.

Conservative commentator Tucker Carlson is taking his show on the road in September ahead of this fall’s general election with a lineup of “controversial” guests.

Carlson, who was fired by Fox News in April 2023 for no stated reason, has developed a massive following on the social media platform X, with nearly 13 million followers.

His programs, which he publishes on X, draw millions of views.

In a promotional video for his upcoming tour, Carlson said, “The one thing we know for certain is the United States is going to be one intense place this fall moving into this presidential election.”

“So we thought what better time to hit the road and see the country,” he added.

“We’re going to be live onstage responding to everything that is happening in real time,” Carlson said. “It’s going to be fun as hell and interesting.”

Live nationwide tour this fall. See you there.

The “Tucker Carlson Live” tour starts in the swing state of Arizona in Phoenix on Sept. 4, with Russell Brand as the featured guest.

Other swing state stops include Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. The tour will also hit California, Colorado, Florida, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Texas, and Utah.

Utah’s Deseret News described the line-up as consisting of a “constellation of conservative superstars — and a couple of controversial figures.”

Besides Brand, other guests scheduled include Vivek Ramaswamy, Tulsi Gabbard, Glenn Beck, Dan Bongino, Megyn Kelly, Alex Jones, Kid Rock, Charlie Kirk, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Roseanne Barr and Donald Trump Jr.

It’s worth noting that three people on that list — Beck, Bongino and Kelly — are Fox News alums, like Carlson.

During what was to be his final episode on Fox, Carlson planned to air the first part of an one-hour interview that he conducted with former Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund, who likely would have addressed how he was prevented by Capitol leadership from having the National Guard present on Jan. 6, 2021.

Carlson in the monologue he planned to give, according to biographer Chadwick Moore, refuted that what took place that day was an insurrection.

“Jan. 6 was a violent insurrection they tell us — and on the basis of that claim, they’ve turned the war on terror against America’s own citizens,” he said. “We believe that is a false characterization, as we’ve said many times. Jan. 6 was not an insurrection, which is why no one has been charged for that crime. No guns were brought into the Capitol. No plans to overthrow the government have ever been found.

“It was not an insurrection. But there was violence. A Capitol police officer called Michael Byrd executed Ashli Babbit, an unarmed protester, and was praised for doing it by politicians in both parties.”

Carlson later invited Sund on his online program which aired in August 2023.

Carlson questioned the former police chief about why the public doesn’t have any answers regarding what role then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi may have played in keeping the National Guard from being on-hand on Jan. 6 to prevent the Capitol incursion from occurring in the first place.

“It doesn’t seem like people really want to get to the bottom of it,” Sund said.

Carlson certainly does not shy away from controversial subjects and will no doubt wade right into the most politically charged issues as he takes his tour around the country.

Early access tickets are available now for subscribers to the Tucker Carlson Network. They will be open to the general public on Friday.
