An executive at Peter Thiel’s venture capital fund is running for a US Senate seat with $10 million in backing from his boss.
Blake Masters, the 34-year-old chief operating officer at investment firm Thiel Capital and a former protege of the billionaire at Stanford, announced Monday that he is running as a Republican to unseat Arizona Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly in 2022.
In his campaign launch, Masters pledged to “completely end illegal immigration” and fight “indoctrination” in the school system.
Masters has never held public office and faces a crowded GOP primary field that includes state Attorney General Mark Brnovich and wealthy energy executive Jim Lamon.
Nevertheless, his campaign rocketed into legitimacy when Thiel gave an eye-watering $10 million to a super PAC supporting him, Politico first reported. Thiel also donated $10 million to a PAC supporting another one of his employees, “Hillbilly Elegy” author and Ohio senate candidate J.D. Vance.
To put those numbers into perspective, the average Senate candidate in 2018 spent $15.7 million over the course of their entire campaign, according to the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics. The group also told Politico that Thiel’s donations to PACs supporting Masters and Vance were the largest single contributions to outside groups supporting Senate candidates in history.

“The Republican Party is getting better, much better. We know this because of two new Republican Senate candidates. The first is @JDVance1 in Ohio and the second is in the state of Arizona @bgmasters is running, every bit as impressive." -@TuckerCarlson pic.twitter.com/MHMVQ9F5gR— The Columbia Bugle 🇺🇸 (@ColumbiaBugle) July 13, 2021

Just watched the clip. Definitely smart, going to be an interesting primary. Let’s see who Trump endorses.
Masters could be a Freeper. He gets how bad “free trade” has been for the USA.
We do need to take a careful look at him but it would be a change for AZ.
Someone who has done something other than be shot into the sky or space.
Whatever happened to the $2500.00 cap, or is that only for Republicans?
I have respect for Peter Thiel because other than being a really smart guy he keeps his LGBTism private.
So did a guy by the name of D.J. Trump. Turned out well.
Super PAC.
Yeah I get that, in truth it’s money laundering.
He was impressive on War Room today.

A lot of gay men are very conservative politically. They’re just not the ones the media tells us about all the time.
Shouldn’t that read “Out of the sky or into space?”
He was impressive on War Room today.
Masters was interviewed for 2 hours on the Gerret Lewis Morning Ritual show. He sounded be very good to me. Definitely MAGA .
Sounds like a good man...
OHIO PING!
Please let me know if you want on or off the Ohio Ping list.

JD Vance, Ohio candidate for Portman’s seat in 2022 is also a Thiel protoge...
Thiel is a co-founder of PayPal, early investor and still on board of Facebook, steering committee of Bilderberger Group, gay & married gay,supported Trump after his candidates folded, Ron and Rand Paul supporter, and so forth....a conservative libertarian as he describes himself.
This whole group is very wealthy, very smart, very well connected, very well educated and very deep thinkers.....could be our greatest allies, or treacherous shape shifting gas lighters like GW Bush, Texan by accent and boots...but New England elitist Yankee values.
Will they stand and fight, or fold and run. Thiel born a German, US naturalized, New Zealand by purchase.
A primer to start you...
