Biggest Billionaire Donors In The Midterms include Musk and Andreessen - Forbes

  • Investment funds linked to Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump have generated roughly $6.3 billion tied to defense-sector startups that depend heavily on Pentagon and federal agency business, according to a Washington Post analysis, reigniting questions about the Trump family’s expanding financial ties to government contracting.
  • The bulk of the current and potential contract value is concentrated in two defense industry giants, SpaceX and Anduril, which together account for 97% of current contract revenue and 42% of potential future contracts. SpaceX is led by Trump ally and former DOGE director Elon Musk, while Anduril was founded by Trump ally Palmer Luckey. - Upolitics
  • Neither Gingrich, Musk, nor Luckey has served even a single day in uniform and wouldn’t know the barrel from the stock of a rifle. - Lucian Truscott

Ignore Hegseth's posturing. Follow the payoff to billionaires like Musk, Thiel and Andreessen for their donations to Trump and Republicans. Now they prepare to buy the midterms for Trump.

Plundering the Pentagon

  • Pete Hegseth’s appointments to a key Pentagon advisory body include two men with ties to the venture capital fund where Donald Trump Jr is a partner, which has lucrative investments in military and space technology.
  • Defense Policy Board appointee Marc Andreessen’s firm, Andreessen Horowitz, one of Silicon Valley’s largest venture capital firms and known by the name “a16z”, co-invests alongside the Trump partnership 1789 Capital in three defense contractors. Fellow DPB appointee Blake Masters also sits on the boards of three ventures tied to 1789 Capital.
  • Both men now advise the Pentagon on the defense-technology sector those companies operate in.
  • Companies jointly backed by a16z and 1789 have already drawn billions in federal loans and contracts since the start of the second Trump administration.
