Silicon Valley’s most Trump-like podcast features a man in the White House.
David Sachs, one of San Francisco’s loudest and proudest conservatives, will become the White House’s artificial intelligence and cryptocurrency czar, President-elect Donald Trump announced Thursday on Truth Social.
Sachs is a founder and partner at venture capital firm Kraft Ventures and a member of the payments technology company’s influential alumni network, the so-called PayPal Mafia, which includes billionaires Peter Thiel, Reid Hoffman, and Elon Musk. It is.
But Sachs is best known for his involvement in the technology and politics podcast All-In, where he appears weekly with three fellow investors, including Chamath Palihapitiya.
Trump appeared on the podcast in June, shortly after Sachs rolled out the red carpet for a fundraiser at his Pacific Heights mansion, where the couple’s tickets were said to have cost $500,000.
