A couple of nuggets from the article for any of you thinking that the Dems are any better:

Anduril is now building a “virtual border wall” for the federal government and Trump, who long campaigned on building a physical barrier on the US-Mexico border, abandoned that promise during his first term and now supports the exact solution Anduril is selling.

Key words being: “is now building” (under Biden)

From Anduril’s blog: https://blog.anduril.com/president-biden-demanded-high-tech-capacity-for-border-security-805b7b5664b5

and:

Though HARPA was not created under the Trump administration, Trump reportedly reacted “very positively” to the proposal and was “sold on the concept.” In addition, before the proposal was known publicly, Trump had called on Big Tech, and specifically social media to collaborate with the DOJ to create software that stops mass murders before they happen by detecting potential mass shooters before they can act. However, Trump ultimately passed on creating HARPA, which was ultimately created during the Biden administration as ARPA-H, underscoring the bipartisan nature of this agenda.

It’s a uni-party, folks. The article is worth a full read.

    Peter Thiel is Elon Musk’s even more evil version, who’s been smart enough to mostly stay out of the press. I’ve been waving my arms about him since paypal.

      Yikes. Eric weinstein is managing director at theil capital. Sounds like a lucrative position. Always been suspicious of Eric, seems too much like an Elon bootlicker. His brother Bret though is absolutely on his knees begging to Elon LOL.
