  • The PayPal co-founder has woven himself throughout Washington, amassing influence with elected and un-elected political players alike.

The article from Business Insider discusses Peter Thiel's significant influence in Silicon Valley and his evolving political and business strategies. Thiel, known for co-founding PayPal and Palantir, has been a major backer of tech moguls like Elon Musk and has invested in numerous startups. Recently, he has shifted his focus towards politics, notably supporting candidates like J.D. Vance and expressing interest in figures like Vivek Ramaswamy, who shares Thiel's libertarian views. Despite his past support for Donald Trump, Thiel has become disillusioned with the political landscape, particularly with the GOP's stance on cultural issues. His involvement in politics is seen as an attempt to steer the Republican Party towards more tech-friendly policies. Additionally, Thiel's relationship with Sam Altman of OpenAI has been complex, marked by both collaboration and competition. His latest venture, Palantir, has been expanding into new markets, including healthcare and government contracts, reflecting his broader ambition to influence both technology and policy arenas.
