Wasn’t he hand selected by Peter Thiel?

Yeah, Vance got mentored good and hard. That's why he looks so much like a roofied chipmunk.

Which means he will likely be found not to be part of "Big Tech". For some reason.

When he says "big tech," he means tech companies that go against him. Just like the "deep state" is anyone in the government who go against them.
