Tech billionaire Peter Thiel has relocated to Argentina as a potential Plan B, fueling concerns given his past remarks about a nuclear apocalypse.

The New York Times reports the PayPal and Palantir co-founder maintains a home in Buenos Aires, Argentina and has quietly purchased land in Uruguay near Argentina's eastern border, with observers speculating the property could include a nuclear bunker. He has reportedly also enrolled his children in local schools.

Author Joyce Carol Oates noted, if a nuclear war devastates North America, Argentina would hardly be affected. She speculated this could be a reason behind Thiel's move.

As a longtime supporter of President Donald Trump, Thiel contributed $1.25 million to his 2016 campaign and secured lucrative government contracts for Palantir during Trump's second administration, according to Mother Jones.

Journalist Pedro González wrote on X, “Peter Thiel is cooking up a plan B for fleeing the United States and hunkering down in Argentina, which I hope is an indicator of how bad he thinks it’s going to get for the new right and how dramatically JD Vance has failed as a viable political vehicle for Thiel’s agenda."
