  Beginning on Jan. 20, 2025, a network of powerful billionaires will exert unparalleled influence over the U.S. government, according to former Labor Secretary Robert Reich. He names venture capitalist Peter Thiel as a central figure in what Reich describes as a "billionaire brain trust" poised to shape key aspects of policy and governance in President-elect Donald Trump's second term.

The article discusses former Labor Secretary Robert Reich's concerns about the influence of billionaires like Elon Musk and Peter Thiel in Donald Trump's White House. Reich warns that these tech moguls, along with other wealthy individuals, have had significant sway over policy decisions, particularly those affecting labor, antitrust, and regulatory environments. He highlights how their involvement could lead to policies that favor the ultra-rich, potentially undermining democratic processes by prioritizing corporate interests over public welfare. Reich points out specific instances where these billionaires' agendas aligned with Trump's deregulatory and tax-cutting policies, which he argues have contributed to increased inequality and weakened worker protections. He calls for greater scrutiny and regulation of such influences to protect democratic institutions and ensure that government serves the broader public interest rather than just the elite.
