Wowza. Those of us who study the Theo Bros have long suspected a financial connection between them & the Tech Bros, but were unable to find it. @ForbesTech just did. The connection is thru Marc Andreessen who advises DOGE & New Founding (led by Nate Fischer & Josh Abbottoy). 1/
3/ I have posted about Nate Fischer and his organizations (New Founding & American Reformer) many, many times. He leads the Dallas chapter of the Society for American Civic Renewal, a Christian only men’s society founded by Charles Haywood.
10/ New Founding, which is backed by Tech Bro Marc Andreessen (who advises DOGE), employs two graduates of New Saint Andrews College, which was founded by Doug Wilson, a highly controversial Idaho pastor and self-professed Christian Nationalist.
11/ A few receipts re New Founding’s employees and New Saint Andrews College (founded by Doug Wilson).

14/ “Marc Andreessen [who backs Nate Fischer’s “New Founding” organization] is recruiting and interviewing staff for Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency [DOGE]” 12/5/24 fortune.com/2024/12/05/mar…
15/ Nate Fischer’s other organization, American Reformer, shares office space with New Founding. American Reformer’s editor is Timon Cline who also works for New Saint Andrews College (founded by Doug Wilson). At NatCon, he said that SCOTUS shld reverse the 1947 Everson case.
16/ The Everson case held that the Establishment Clause requires a wall of separation between church & state and that the clause applies not only at the federal level but also at the state level via the 14th Amendment (aka the “incorporation” doctrine). constitutioncenter.org/the-constituti…
17/ In addition to his work for American Reformer (Nate Fischer), Timon Cline is employed by New Saint Andrews College (founded by Doug Wilson). americanreformer.org/author/timoncl…
18/ More re Timon Cline who is employed by Nate Fischer.
22/ Again, DOGE advisor Marc Andreessen (a major Tech Bro) is invested in New Founding, per Forbes. Armored Republic is another apparent project of New Founding.
35/ American Reformer (founded by Nate Fischer) supports the Center for Baptist Leadership founded by Trump/Hetitage alum William Wolfe. William is a former fellow of both American Reformer & of the Center for Renewing America (founded by Russ Vought, Trump’s OMB Director pick).
39/ William Wolfe is a co-editor of a very explicit draft Christian Nationalism manifesto, as I reported here for @BucksCoBeacon. buckscountybeacon.com/2024/03/shocki…
40/ Doug Wilson has his own miniature Christian “kingdom” in Moscow, Idaho (similar in some ways to the Tech Bro “network state” concept) where he is the lead pastor of Christ Church. Residents there just had a meeting to address Christ Church’s expanding influence in the city. spokesman.com/stories/2024/d…
@BucksCoBeacon 41/ Doug Wilson’s Christian community in Moscow, Idaho also resembles in some ways New Founding’s Highland Rim project, which aims to build Christian communities in Appalachia. newfounding.com/real-estate
@BucksCoBeacon 42/ Nate Fischer discussing the idea of Christian network states.
Pete Hegseth attends a church that belongs to the CREC, the evangelical denomination founded by Christ Church pastor Doug Wilson. This guy. 👇 h/t @ExaminingMoscow 1/
3/ Doug Wilson founded the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches, formerly known as the Confederation of Reformed Evangelical Churches (CREC). Pete Hegseth attends a CREC church as discussed in the USA Today piece.

👀 Praxis is a Thiel-backed “network state” project that aims to build its own “nation”. In Nov, Praxis founder Dryden Brown wrote about wanting Greenland for Praxis. In Dec, Trump named Thiel partner Ken Howery as Denmark ambassador & said the US shld buy Greenland. Praxis & Dryden are thrilled…1/
2/ This is a reply to Dryden’s post (above). Note Dryden’s response.
3/ Peter Thiel backs Praxis through Pronomos Capitol.

This cautionary post is newly relevant in that some of Trump’s Tech Bros ditched Biden/Harris over plans to regulate AI. Significantly, Trump has named Jacob Helberg—an advisor to Palantir’s CEO— as his Undersecretary of State for economic growth, energy, & the environment. 1/
3/ “Helberg has already started drafting an executive order for a future Trump administration that would strip away … Biden’s AI regulations (limited as they may be).”
