The Oct 2022 How Palantir Conquered the World https://corbettreport.com/how-palantir-conquered-the-world/ combined with the Peter Thiel series is fascinating.

In Part 1 The Strange Story of Peter Thiel https://corbettreport.com/the-strange-story-of-peter-thiel/ , Corbett’s description of Peter Thiel’s early life etched in my brain.
I got the concept.
The description could fill a lot of boxes on the Hare Psychopathy Checklist.

Corbett QUOTE:
…Thiel was by all accounts an aloof, haughty, arrogant child. He was a Dungeons & Dragons enthusiast, a Lord of the Rings obsessive and a chess wunderkind who displayed no sense of humour, never smiled, had no close friends and was, perhaps unsurprisingly, relentlessly bullied and teased by classmates. He was, however, possessed of a sense of his own greatness—he signed his classmates’ school yearbooks with the encouraging taunt, “Maybe you’ll come within one point of me next year”—and demonstrated early on that he was willing to break whatever rules need to be broken in the pursuit of money, even if it meant putting his own future in jeopardy. One of his high school classmates asserts that, after securing a spot at Stanford University, Thiel offered to take younger students’ SAT tests for them at a cost of $500 per test provided they could find a way to “arrange untraceable payments,” a scheme that could have cost Thiel his own spot at Stanford were it discovered.

Entering Stanford in the fall of 1985, Thiel continued his high school patterns. When he received a 4.0 GPA in his first term, he made a beeline for the only other 4.0 student he knew and proceeded to argue with him for ten minutes about why his own 4.0 was “better” than his classmate’s 4.0 because Thiel had received more A+ grades….

In Part 2, Corbett writes:
”For one thing, he backed Harriet Hageman, the Trump-endorsed Wyoming congressional candidate who unseated Liz Cheney in that state’s 2022 Republican primary.”

I recognized that name, Harriet Hageman.
Hageman Introduces Bill to Block Mandatory EID Ear Tags – PRESS RELEASE
https://corbettreport.com/toothbrushes/#comment-170066

EXCERPTS from the Press Release (above)
“A rule requiring electronic ear tags for cattle and bison means the government will know where every animal is and who owns it,”
said Representative Thomas Massie (R-KY).
“This will allow the government to build a registry, which is the first step needed to ban cattle in accordance with the Left’s anti-agriculture climate policies. Congress should stand up for American farmers and ranchers by blocking the electronic ear tag rule.”

The Press Release talks about Ireland implementing the EID, then culling 41,000 cattle eighteen months later because of climate change.
