@MattGoldstein26 11/ Peter Thiel was also significantly involved with Trump 1.0.
ICYMI, during the 2016 presidential campaign, “Epstein invited [Peter] Thiel and [Thomas] Barrack to separate meetings with Vitaly Churkin, Russia’s ambassador to the United Nations. **** Thiel, who had several interactions with Epstein starting in 2014, according to the documents, said his Oct 2016 meeting with Epstein & Churkin featured ‘nothing memorable.’
‘I was rather naive,’ Thiel said in an interview, ‘and I didn’t think enough about what Epstein’s agenda might have been.’ Barrack, founder of Colony Capital and a longtime Trump ally, declined to comment.” 1/ archive.is/2023.09.03-150…
Tulsi’s report seems to me like an attempt to distract. As I detailed on Medium, Obama stated in Dec 2016 that, “We have not seen evidence of machines being tampered with *** That doesn’t mean that we find every single potential probe of every single voting machine across the country. But we paid a lot of attention to it. We worked with state election officials, etc. And we feel confident that that didn’t occur.” 1/
If anything, I felt that Obama and others provided false assurances to the public about the legitimacy of Trump’s win in 2016. I explained my concerns in detail here. 3/ jennycohn1.medium.com/why-have-so-ma…
A whistleblower alleged that staff of Palantir—co-founded by Facebook investor/director Peter Thiel—had worked w/ Cambridge Analytica (CA) on the FB data it acquired. But a Palantir spokesperson claimed Palantir never had a relationship w/ CA & never worked on its data. 5/2018 1/

Carbyne is an “Israeli emergency response startup” chaired by former Israeli prime minister EHUD BARAK & backed by PETER THIEL’S Founders Fund. Sum, a limited partnership, “owns 100% of Carbyne’s series A preferred stock.” JEFFREY EPSTEIN invested $1.5M in Sum in 2016. 1/
3/ Per the article, “Andrew Intrater is a business partner and backer of…Carbyne Ltd. Intrater is also one of the key figures questioned by Special Counsel Robert Mueller and his team in connection to the alleged Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.”
😳 Here we go again. “A consultant claiming to work for the White House called several Republican county clerks in Colorado last week, seeking ‘third-party’ access to secure voting equipment, election officials told The Denver Post.” 7/16/25 1/ denverpost.com/2025/07/16/col…
