"Wow! The Silicon Valley Liberty Forum has got to be one of my favorite events this year! I’m "on the road” presenting to audiences over 100 days a year, for over 25 years, and this was an incredibly fired-up, motivated and passionate audience. The organization, videography, the audio-visual set-up, the follow-up questions, were all world class!
Most importantly, this is a group of truly ardent American advocates for everything that is good and strong and true in our nation. It was a great honor and pleasure to be of service to this magnificent group of patriots. I told them that “Love means, the worst it gets, the harder we fight." And this awesome assembly definitely loves liberty, and is a modern example of those who dedicate their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor to the cause of liberty!"
Brent Hamachek, Author, Speaker, and Consultant
"Being asked to speak at the Liberty Forum of Silicon Valley is an extraordinary privilege when it happens the first time, but when it happens again you are overcome with both a sense of gratitude and great feeling of obligation not to let this critically thinking, warm & receptive, audience down.
When you address any audience you feel the need to give. These people give you back more than you could possibly hope to receive. On my recent return engagement, I didn't feel like I was presenting to an audience. I felt like I was just visiting with family.
Oh, and one more thing. If you're a speaker, be at the top of your game. These folks take notes! I know this because I was actually asked to sign some from my prior appearance! Look sharp! “
Aaron R. Day, Entrepreneur, Leader of Pro-Liberty Organizations, and Political Activist
”Having been to and hosted dozens of liberty events, I can say without hesitation that the Liberty Forum of Silicon Valley was the best organized I've ever witnessed. The meticulous attention to detail in every aspect of the event set a new standard for what a successful forum should embody. Despite the challenging and somewhat distressing nature of the topics discussed, the audience's reaction was extraordinary. Their engagement, friendliness, and eagerness to delve into serious issues were not just commendable, but deeply inspiring. This unique combination of outstanding organization and a remarkably enthusiastic audience made the event a standout experience, showcasing how even the most serious discussions can be transformed into a hopeful and constructive dialogue.”
Steve Cooley, Los Angeles County District Attorney, 2000-2012
”Liberty Forum and programs like it are essential to protect our rights and advance good causes. An informed public is the lifeblood of a healthy democracy. I only wish there were more Liberty Forums!”
Kirk Cameron, Husband, Father, Actor, Filmmaker
”What an unexpected breath of fresh air in the Silicon Valley!
I’ve always loved my home-state of California for it’s beautiful beaches, mountains, farmlands, cities and great weather, but now I can safely say I love it also because of the Liberty Forum!
An oasis and a strategic outpost for clear thinking, faith-filled, big-hearted patriots who haven’t drunk the communist Kool-Aid.
I’m hopeful and confident this group will accomplish much in the cause of truth and liberty.”
Jennifer Sey, Author, filmmaker, business executive and retired artistic gymnast
"What a night! The energy and support and just sheer love coming from the audience at the Liberty Forum of Silicon Valley was unmatched! They were engaged, energetic and asked such amazing questions.
I’ve found such comfort and energy in meeting like-minded people in the last few years. And I met more of them on the night I spoke to this group.
It’s not about right or left anymore. It’s about people who will fight for freedom and individual liberties; who will use their voices and stand up for everyone’s right to speak and live freely.
I found kindred spirits in this crowd. Proud to know these folks and proud to have had the chance to speak at one of their events amongst such a long list of illustrious speakers."
Eric Eggers, VP of the Government Accountability Institute
If you want to find a group of people who value and advocate for freedom, go talk to Americans who lived in California's Bay Area during COVID. The LIberty Forum of Silicon Valley is an informed, engaged, passionate audience who have a hunger for advocacy borne from the tragedy they endured. While Gavin Newsome and Nancy Pelosi tried to shut us in, they speak out, and show up. It was an honor to be with people who care as much and cheer as loud as they do.
Marc Morano, Author of the Great Reset and publisher of Climate Depot
The Liberty Forum is the place to be for anyone right of center in California! I have spoken to them twice and can vouch for the fact this is one powerhouse liberty-loving group fighting for freedom in the heart of the beast. Huge crowds, great enthusiasm, fantastic q and a, a truly well-run and impactful organization. What more can you ask for?!
J. Christian Adams, President of the Public Interest Legal Foundation and prominent election attorney
It was quite an energetic bunch of great Americans. They laughed at all the right times, got angry at all the right things, and clearly love America. They were welcoming and savvy. The Liberty Forum is a much-needed reminder that America's best days might still be ahead of us.

I am with Brent Hamachek, Managing Director of Human Events; Mayor Sutton Van Vo from South Vietnam; Peter Palecek from Czechoslovakia; Felisa Blazek, activist from New Hampshire working to ban all electronic machines in her states and others; Peter Wolf from East Germany; and Tatiana Menaker from the Soviet Union. The five of us were on a two-hour long panel discussing how communism came to our native countries.

Thank you again for the opportunity to speak. You have a wonderful group of people working and benefiting from your efforts. It's heartening to see so many rational, thinking, kind, and engaged people.
Gordon G. Chang, Internationally recognized author and expert on China
This is a critical moment in our history, and we Americans will now have to meet, talk, organize, and fight if we are to keep our freedoms and our republic. It is in groups like the Liberty Forum of Silicon Valley where we begin to rescue freedom at this time of peril. Lydia and I came away so energized by the crowd there. This is where our country’s renewal begins.

I didn't have speaking at the Liberty Forum on my bucket list because you are supposed to only include things that you can imagine doing! I never imagined being asked to speak to such a prestigious group, and especially at their first in person meeting since the pandemic. They welcomed me with kindness and attentiveness and they left me with humbling applause and thoughtful comments. I was supposed to inspire the audience, but, instead, they ended up inspiring me. Truly an experience that I'll be privileged to treasure all my remaining days
Gad Saad, Ph.D., Professor, Evolutionary Behavioral Scientist, Author of ‘The Parasitic Mind: … Killing Common Sense’, and host of The Saad Truth
Many people feel helpless at the growing tide of parasitic ideas in every nook and cranny of our supposedly free and enlightened societies. Concerned citizens should be afforded great solace in knowing that the Liberty Forum of Silicon Valley exists. It is a bastion of reason in an ecosystem of lunacy. It was my distinct pleasure to deliver a lecture at such a wonderful forum, and to field so many interesting and insightful questions from members of the audience. I look forward to hopefully having an opportunity to deliver a lecture in person once the pandemic nightmare is behind us.
Vivek Ramaswamy, Entrepreneur and Author of the forthcoming Book “Woke Inc.”
This evening with the Liberty Forum gave me hope. I felt the energy of the audience even thought I could not see them on my computer screen - through the rigor of the questions they asked, the sharpness of their live comments, and the way that the moderator channeled their many ideas into a spirited dialogue. If this group is representative of today’s conservative movement in America, then I believe our future remains bright. They left me as motivated as ever to do my small part for our country, and I fully expect that everyone in this group will do theirs too.
Adam Andrzejewski, CEO/Co-Founder, OpenTheBooks
Yes, there are California Patriots (just like there are Illinois patriots)! We share a common bond - as witness to history. We are fighting institutional threats to individual freedom and liberty. You helped steel my spine for the difficult road ahead! Amazing that such a strong group of principled people are in Silicion Valley and it is a privilege to fight these battles locked arm in arm with you. Our work is just beginning. In Solidarity - let’s roll!
Michelle Malkin, Television Commentator, Blogger, Columnist, Author
“W-O-W. I've been a public speaker for more than 25 years and I say this without an iota of hyperbole: The Liberty Forum of Silicon Valley rocked my world. The group's leaders and event planners are consummate professionals who managed every logistical detail seamlessly. Turnout was flabbergasting — filled to the rafters. I greatly enjoyed meeting members and attendees of all ages and walks of life. Who knew so many fired-up, loud-and-proud, liberty-loving, red-blooded patriots occupied Big Tech's Ground Zero? At a time in America when fear and hatred have hijacked so many public places and spaces, the Liberty Forum stands out as a bastion of free speech, association, and discussion. I won't forget the warmth, courage, and spirit of your remarkable club. Onward!”
James O'Keefe, Guerilla journalist; founder of Project Veritas
“It was extremely cool working with the Liberty Forum of Silicon Valley, one of the few bastions of economic freedom remaining on the west coast. As an institution which values individual liberty over redistributionist policies and the free market over cronyism, their goals are near and dear to my heart.”
John Yoo, Emanuel S. Heller Professor of Law at UC Berkeley, Constitutional Scholar, Author
“The Liberty Forum is the West Berlin of the 21st Century. It is a shining symbol of free speech, democracy, and capitalism surrounded by left-wing governments! I was proud to join their conversation, during this difficult time, about the Constitution, our nation’s history, and the future of the American Presidency. I could not ask for a more prepared, engaged, and lively discussion — even in the age of Zoom!”
Jim Geraghty, Political Reporter, Contributing Eeditor at National Review Online
“I can't remember a speaking engagement I've enjoyed more! I also can't remember a night where I felt so much energy and responsiveness from the crowd.”
