Jeff Giesea is an American entrepreneur, communications specialist, and national security writer who was a business affiliate of several of Peter Thiel's companies and venture capital groups.
The business received $600,000 in seed money from Peter Thiel, SV Angel, Lerer Ventures, and Softbank Capital.
He wrote several articles for Harvard Business Review, including a well-known piece among post-exit entrepreneurs, “Dealing with the Emotional Fall-Out of Selling Your Business.”[9] Giesea has written several papers for NATO, mostly on the topic of information warfare.
[15] Additionally, he helped organize a "Gays for Trump" party at the 2016 RNC following the Pulse nightclub shooting and was alleged to have been involved with the October 2016 pro-Trump art show where Milo bathed himself in pig's blood as a performance art piece commemorating victims of undocumented immigrants and Islamic terrorism.
He gave a speech there entitled, "A New Type of Republican," explaining that Trumpism was based on three principles: sovereignty, economic nationalism ("in particular a focus on making life better for the middle and working Americans, not just the top one percent") and putting America first.
[17] In October 2017, Giesea formed a Super PAC called #Rev18 alongside Mike Cernovich and Jack Posobiec.
