Film producer and Hollywood mogul Jeffrey Katzenberg, a Biden campaign co-chair, has held multiple meetings at the White House to win over wary donors and politicians to support President Biden.

One of the foremost concerns for donors, The New York Times revealed in a feature on Katzenberg, is Biden's age. 

 "He was like, ‘Trust me. And if you don’t trust me, trust, but verify. Come with me and see for yourself and engage with the president,’" Gov. Gavin Newsom said in an interview with The New York Times about Katzenberg's calls for doubters and potential supporters to meet with Biden.

"[Katzenberg] really was instrumental in getting people off the sidelines and getting them to dive headfirst in this campaign," Newsom said. 

Katzenberg has also advised President Biden to present his age as a "superpower" to voters. The president, at 81 years old, has faced questions over his mental acuity. 

Katzenberg is well known for helping bring "The Lion King" and "Shrek" to movie audiences and is one of Biden's most high-profile supporters in Hollywood. 

But his fear of former President Trump's rise, which he believes parallels the rise of Adolf Hitler, has convinced him to devote his time to fundraising on Biden's behalf.  

Democratic strategist Paul Begala called Katzenberg "the greatest fund-raiser alive."

Begala also compared Katzenberg to a cow that ranchers use to lead the rest of the herd: "Jeffrey Katzenberg is the Democratic Party’s bell cow," he said.

"He’s a true believer in the importance of this election," deputy campaign manager Rob Flaherty said of Katzenberg. "He speaks about it in really existential terms. He talks about how this is what he wants to spend his time on and he can’t focus on anything else. He’s a really relentless guy."

Biden speaks with Katzenberg multiple times a week, The Times reported. 

"To the best of my knowledge, this guy doesn’t sleep," White House chief of staff Jeffrey D. Zients said of the Hollywood heavyweight. "He’s 24/7. That’s invaluable."

Katzenberg often pursues multiple creative and political projects simultaneously. 

"I’ve known Donald Trump for 50 years," Katzenberg told a crowd in May. "The only thing I can say is, he was a colossal a------ then, and nothing has really changed." 

The Trump and Biden campaigns did not immediately respond to requests for comment from Fox News Digital.

An hourslong manhunt is over in Houston, Texas, after authorities apprehended an inmate early Friday morning who escaped during transport from a court appearance on Thursday.

Joshua Nigel Thomas Sanders, 35, was taken into custody at around 3 a.m. Friday, nearly 12 hours after his escape during transport back to the jail at around 3:30 p.m. Thursday, according to the Harris County Sheriff's Office.

Investigators say Sanders was found at a Houston home believed to belong to a relative and responding officers used a taser against him as he resisted arrest. As he was taken into custody, two others were arrested as well for hindering apprehension, according to Harris County Maj. Saul Suarez.

Sanders was in custody for three burglaries and one unlawful possession of a weapon by a felon, Harris County Chief Phillip Bosquez said during a previous news briefing.

"It appears that on his way back from court he was able to facilitate an escape," Bosquez said.

During his escape, Sanders allegedly accosted a woman and jumped into her car, but she wrecked it just a few feet away.

After the vehicle was disabled during the accident, the suspect fled the area on foot, which was the last time he was seen, police said.

On Friday morning, Suarez said how Sanders escaped is still under investigation, but he is now facing additional charges of aggravated robbery and escape.

The suspect is also receiving medical treatment and will be sent back to the Harris County Jail once he is cleared by a doctor, Suarez added.

The University of Houston Downtown issued a lockdown due to the search but later gave the all-clear.

"UHD ALERT: SECURE! Downtown OUTSIDE Police Action," the X alert read. "Get indoors immediately. Lock outside doors. Avoid Windows. PD responding."

Bosquez said Sanders was believed to be armed with a knife during his escape but could not confirm any further details.
