All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg
Tariffs, Trump's Economic Endgame, Market Chaos, Bitcoin Reserve, CoreWeave IPO

So you have to realize you're dealing with a complicated situation with lots of forms of power. I do agree with you. As I said, and listen, I saw David and we gave each other a hug. I think we're all good. But I was very frustrated with the posts of Trump mentioning specific coins. I don't know who was trading them before. It just looks bad.

We're fighting all this grift, all these things where we have the moral high ground. I agree. I don't want to give up the moral high ground with these silly schemes. That's 100% the case.

And I actually, I actually think speech is very important. I think the ability for me to send out something and say, guys, I'm studying this. It's corrupt. It's been corrupt for 50 years, we have to all get together and stand against these health systems, these crazy defense companies that have captured and broken everything.

I think my ability to speak and do that and to convince people is really valuable. I pass dozens of laws each year in different states by convincing people, nothing to do with making me money, that these incentives and accountability are wrong. I think that's a good thing that I'm allowed to do that.

You have to be careful. So the reason the Supreme Court ruled for super PACs is not just about giving... You're not giving them the money. You're actually speaking yourself. So when Elon spends $300 million, he's actually spending it many times putting out his own... speech or he's putting out.

Actually, I agree with what Shabbat was saying about gerrymandering. I think we could use AI for that. It's a separate conversation. It's discussing how it works right now. However, Jason, the problem at the end of the day with defining what's political or not is the boundary cases are really tough and you do end up needing effectively a censorship board.
