Cenk Uyghur finally wakes up to fact that 9-11 was an inside job with a pre-planned cover up meant to serve as a pretext for WAR (on Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Yemen, Somalia, and others on a list of at least seven meant to go down like dominos)
Peter Andreas Thiel (born Oct. 11, 1967) is a gay German American [1][2][3][4] billionaire entrepreneur, venture capitalist, and political activist [5][6][7], who hand selected the vice president.
A co-founder of PayPal, Palantir Technologies, and Founders Fund, Thiel was the first outside investor in Facebook [8][9]. According to Forbes, as of May 2025, Thiel's estimated net worth stood at US$20.8 billion, making him the 103rd-richest individual in the world [10].
Thiel has been described as "perhaps America's leading public intellectual today" [11] or "intellectual architect of Silicon Valley's contemporary ethos" [12]. Others debate the consistency or morality of his views [13][N 1][15][16].
Born in Germany, Thiel was taken to the U.S. by his parents when he was one year old. In 1971, his family moved to South Africa then South West Africa [17], before moving back to the U.S. in 197 [17].
After graduating from Stanford, he worked as a clerk, a securities lawyer, a speechwriter, and subsequently a derivatives trader at Credit Suisse. He founded Thiel Capital Management in 1996 and co-founded PayPal with Max Levchin and Luke Nosek in 1998.
He was the chief executive officer of PayPal until its sale to eBay in 2002 for $1.5 billion. Following PayPal, Thiel founded Clarium Capital, a global macro hedge fund based in San Francisco [18].
In 2003, he launched Palantir Technologies, a big data analysis company, and has been its chairman since its inception. In 2005, Thiel launched Founders Fund with PayPal partners Ken Howery and Luke Nosek. Thiel became Facebook's first outside investor when he acquired a 10.2% stake in the company for $500,000 in August 2004.
He co-founded Valar Ventures in 2010, founded Thiel Capital in 2011, co-founded Mithril Capital in 2012, was investment committee chair, in 2012, and was a part-time partner at Y Combinator from 2015 to 2017 [19][20][21][22].
He was granted New Zealand citizenship in 2011, which later became controversial in New Zealand.
Variously described as a conservative libertarian and democracy-skeptic authoritarian, Thiel has made substantial donations to American right-wing figures and causes.
Through the Thiel Foundation, Thiel governs the grant-making bodies Breakout Labs and Thiel Fellowship. In 2016, when the Bollea v. Gawker lawsuit ended up with Gawker losing the case, Thiel confirmed that he had funded Hulk Hogan. Gawker had previously outed Thiel as gay. More
