Israeli-American Haim Saban, a Democratic Party megadonor, hosted a fundraiser in his Los Angeles home yesterday for US President Joe Biden.
In the COVID tests taken before the event, Saban tested positive and was unable to attend.
However, Biden held a private Zoom conversation with Saban from another room in his home.
“While I can’t share details from our one-on-one conversation, I can share that President Biden cares deeply about Israel, it’s in his kishkes [guts]. He cares about Israel’s security and ensuring that Israel remains a prosperous Jewish and democratic state,” Saban says in a statement.
