Inside the billionaire network shaping MAGA’s post-Trump future

Chris Buskirk put tech elites at the center of power in Trump’s Washington. His efforts are grounded in a controversial theory — an “aristocracy” is needed to move the country forward.

Convened by Silicon Valley billionaire Peter Thiel and JD Vance, then an investor who had written a best-selling memoir, the meeting included hedge fund heiress Rebekah Mercer, then-Fox News host Tucker Carlson and economist Oren Cass, according to two people familiar with the meeting. The people spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe the private gathering, details of which have not been previously reported.

But the person in the room who would solidify the group’s ambitions was decidedly lower profile: an Arizona insurance entrepreneur and conservative media figure named Chris Buskirk.

Do any of you **** rubes recall me pointing out the fundamental paradox of "Republican populism"?
