このコンテンツについて
I’m David Sacks and the past few days have been a whirlwind of headlines and high-profile controversy. Most notably, I’m at the center of an investigation led by Senator Elizabeth Warren and other Democratic lawmakers. They’ve accused me of overstaying the 130-day term limit reserved for Special Government Employees while serving as President Trump’s Special Advisor for AI and Crypto. According to The Street and Coin World, the investigation is also probing alleged conflicts of interest linked to my ongoing role at Craft Ventures and the ethics waivers granted during my appointment, especially since my fund still holds investments in major crypto and AI startups. My office pushed back, maintaining that I’ve complied with all SGE rules by scheduling non-consecutive workdays and publicly divesting $200 million in crypto assets before stepping into the advisory role. Yet, Warren and her coalition insist that my remaining ties and my high-profile fundraising for Trump—raising twelve million dollars, by the way—reflect partisan bias and potentially a deeper ethics breach just as new crypto legislation is rolling out.
On social media, I sparked a separate firestorm—this time for tech and free speech watchers. Days ago, I publicly encouraged Elon Musk to build a true competitor to Wikipedia, calling attention to what I see as entrenched bias on the platform. On X, I argued for an AI-powered rewrite of Wikipedia, using sources typically blacklisted by Wikipedia editors as described by co-founder Larry Sanger in a recent Tucker Carlson interview. Musk responded by officially announcing Grokipedia, a new project at xAI, promising a "massive improvement" over the Wikipedia model and a more open landscape for reliable information. My tweets on September 30 gained widespread traction, where I said Wikipedia is hopelessly biased and Google’s reliance on it for AI training data is a huge problem. The discussion quickly picked up among both my followers and Musk’s substantial audience, making it one of the most cited debates in tech and media circles this week.
News outlets have also resurfaced discussions about my push for a U.S. Strategic Bitcoin Reserve—a policy some critics say could benefit companies I’m connected to, even as I continue to dispute those claims and highlight my divestments.
No major public appearances or business activities outside these stories have been reported in the past 24 hours, but the ongoing ethics investigation and Grokipedia debate continue to generate headlines and shape perceptions about my influence in government, venture capital, and the tech world.
