About Christopher Buskirk

Christopher Buskirk is the co-founder, Chief Investment Officer, and President of 1789 Capital, a Palm Beach-based venture firm he launched in 2023 with Omeed Malik after building and selling multiple finance businesses in insurance and specialty lending. His investment thesis targets late-stage U.S. companies aligned with conservative values and “patriotic capitalism,” focusing on defense technology, artificial intelligence, digital infrastructure, fintech, and energy while explicitly opposing ESG frameworks. The firm typically executes deals ranging from $5 million to $50 million, leveraging political networks for government contracts and reshoring initiatives, though Buskirk’s specific lead-versus-follow behavior is not publicly detailed. Notable portfolio companies include Tucker Carlson’s media outlet Substack (via the Tucker Carlson Network), defense-tech startup Hadrian, AI factory builder Hadrian, and positions in Elon Musk’s SpaceX, Neuralink, and xAI. Buskirk distinguishes himself as an author of the 2023 book *America & The Art of the Possible*, a frequent speaker at venues like the Aspen Ideas Festival, and co-founder of The Rockbridge Netwo
