Yeah, his name is Sriram Krishnan. He's the Silicon Valley figure who has like a long history. He works in tech and he was being appointed to be an advisor on Trump's AI team, which is being headed up by another big guy in tech, David Sachs, who's a part of the infamous PayPal mafia that includes Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, etc.,

Yeah, there's like some like different ideological things happening. But for the most part, they're largely on the same page. And like a lot of people right now are kind of calling them the new tech right or just like the tech right.

Yeah, so there's this provocateur troll in Trump world called Laura Loomer. She's been kind of this weird thing on the right for a long time. She's chained herself to the headquarters of Twitter in protest of her account being banned at one point. But she sees this appointment and she decides to make hay of it.

She pulls out a tweet that Krishnan made about country caps for green cards, rather, and high-skilled immigration. And she points to these things and says, this is like not what we want. This is not America first. These things are not good for our constituency. And so that's like the sort of obvious bit of it.

The other bit, too, is you can kind of see how race is like this animating issue in this fight. David Sachs had already been appointed by Trump to be his chief advisor on issues of AI and crypto. David Sachs has talked about H-1B visas. He's pushed Trump on this. He's successfully gotten Trump to say that he would support the continued use of H1B visas.

But Loomer didn't attack him on that and didn't turn this into a huge issue. Instead, she went after Sriram Krishnan, who is South Asian. And I think it's, you know, her targeting him specifically on this issue and associating him with that kind of speaks to the sort of like nativist sentiment undergirding all of this.
