JD Vance's Co-founding of Rockbridge Network

JD Vance co-founded Rockbridge Network, a Silicon Valley-backed organization aiming to spread Trump's nationalism through a $75 million budget for 2024. The network influences U.S. politics through right-wing news stories, voter turnout operations, and election polls. Rockbridge is backed by tech investors, including Peter Thiel, Blake Masters, and Omeed Malik. It seeks to weaken SEC regulations, support cryptocurrency, and AI. Vance, a venture capitalist, resonates with working-class voters and has informal ties to Rockbridge.
