🇦🇷 🇺🇸 👨‍💻 Tech billionaire Peter Thiel relocates to Argentina, citing concerns about the U.S. future and shared ideology with leadership.

Over the past two months, Mr. Thiel has met with the country’s president, Javier Milei, and his ministers; purchased a mansion in one of Buenos Aires’ most exclusive neighborhoods; and hosted a dinner with local economists where he discussed the Antichrist, one of his favorite conversation topics, according to Argentine officials and people familiar with Mr. Thiel’s activities.

Mr. Thiel, who has a history of collecting backup countries as he hedges his bets against the United States, is considering making Argentina another Plan B, according to two people familiar with his thinking. Born in Germany and raised in the United States, he received citizenship in New Zealand in 2011, and applied for a passport in Malta in 2022.

Underscoring his belief in the country, Mr. Thiel, 58, has temporarily relocated his family to Argentina and enrolled his children in a local school, two of the people said. The Argentine government has also explored offering the billionaire permanent residence or even citizenship, a person familiar with Mr. Thiel’s plans said, though it’s currently unclear whether he would accept.

A spokesman for Mr. Milei denied such an offer had been considered. The Argentine government is currently working to establish a “golden passport” program that would allow people who make large investments in the country to obtain citizenship.

“All billionaires of the world who want to flee countries increasingly regulated, with higher taxes and governments that persecute their citizens, are welcome in the Argentine republic, the new land of freedom,” Manuel Adorni, Mr. Milei’s cabinet chief, said last month before congress, answering a question about Mr. Thiel.

“It was an anarcho-capitalist who met another anarcho-capitalist who is bringing things to life,” Mr. Milei said.

🗳 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 Congress quietly moves to integrate US and Israeli militaries

✏️ Congress is proposing Section 224 in the 2027 NDAA, which would significantly deepen U.S.-Israel military cooperation through joint R&D, co-production of weapons, and data integration in emerging technologies like AI and cyber. Critics argue this marks a shift from aid to hidden integration, increasing U.S.-Israel military-industrial ties while public trust in Israel declines. With concerns over transparency, accountability, and the use of U.S. weapons in potential human rights violations, Ben Freeman urges Congress to reject the provision.

"At a time when the American public is expressing unprecedented levels of distrust in the Israeli government, Congress just proposed tying the U.S. to the Israeli military more than ever before."

Buried in the House’s 2027 NDAA is Section 224: the “United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative," which would dramatically expand U.S.-Israel military cooperation far beyond the current aid model.

We’re talking bilateral R&D, weapons co-production & deep defense-tech integration. It also names emerging technologies like AI, quantum, autonomous systems, directed energy, cyber, biotech, and more. In other words: the battlefields of the future.

One of the most alarming phrases in the bill: “network integration” and “data fusion.”

Put plainly, the U.S. military’s data could soon be the Israeli military’s data.

That is not normal defense cooperation. That is something much deeper.

The U.S. already gives Israel extraordinary military support.

Israel has received more than $200 billion in inflation-adjusted U.S. military assistance since 1948.

But Section 224 would mark a shift from aid to integration.

That shift matters A LOT.

Traditional military aid is at least somewhat visible and politically accountable.

But moving the relationship into defense acquisition, co-production, and joint tech development risks pushing it further into the shadows.

It would also create powerful new political incentives inside the U.S.

If Israeli defense firms expand co-production facilities here, they can claim to create jobs in congressional districts — and gain more allies in Congress.

That’s how military-industrial influence grows.

We’ve already seen Israeli defense production footprints in places like Mississippi and Arkansas.

Section 224 could turbocharge that model — making the Israeli military-industrial base even more embedded in U.S. politics.

All of this is happening while the American public is increasingly skeptical of unconditional support for Israel.

A recent poll found just 16% of Americans support continuing to supply Israel with weapons without new restrictions.

That disconnect is striking:

The public is asking for more restraint and accountability with Israel.

Congress is proposing deeper, less transparent military integration.

That’s not democracy. That’s the military-industrial complex doing what it does best.

And the timing could not be worse.

Israel has repeatedly used U.S. weapons in Gaza in ways that human rights groups and journalists have linked to violations of international humanitarian law.

This is not the moment to deepen integration with Israel’s military.

Members of Congress concerned about U.S. interests, regional stability, and democratic accountability should act now.

The first step is simple:

Reject Section 224 from the NDAA.

Stop the U.S.-Israel military-industrial merger before it starts.
