always getting involved but this year you are seeing significantly more money being spent by silicon valley to oust trump and support biden than we saw for clinton in 2016 correct yeah we're talking about some pretty staggering numbers here so we break down silicon valley who does that mean what means people living obviously in san francisco area it means specifically people who are working in a dignified themselves as either software software engineers in those areas or in venture capital and then also who work specifically for either facebook amazon microsoft netflix apple or alphabet or one of its subsidiaries but here's the amounts in 2016 silicon valley vastly spent for clinton over trump to the tune of about. what was it $163000000.00 but this year they've increased that spending by about 22 percent at $199000000.00 that's how much silicon valley has put toward joe biden in trying to get rid of the ultra you know over the weekend the biden campaign actually released a list of its largest donors they call them bundlers those are the people who fundraise for the campaign why did the cam

silicon valley. the immediate solution. this is to christopher. so in 2013 while you're still with s.c.l. group, you had set up a similar company called us. and according to bust, a few do you had told an acquaintance of yours that you wanted to build the n.s.a. as a wet dream? and you also claimed that evil pays more. so that's not true. one of the things that i've learned is that you know, when you go up against a company that specializes in this information and it also uses that increase narratives about people who criticize. so i do, i don't take your assertion as valid and if they're simply it's not true. i did not set up that company. i do not remember. and i have not seen any actual state of evidence to, you know, to substantiate this, this flippant comment. ok, well it seems to me that you helped create these tools which you admitted to building and you know, eventually these tools were misappropriated and you know, day we used to hijack elections and undermine democracy. so do you understand why some people would question your motives tod
