This would allow the Office of Strategic Capital (OSC), a Pentagon office, to purchase stock, shares, preferred equity or other ownership stakes in private companies.<\/p>\n<p>Section 1051 would allow the OSC to make investments up to $500 million, according to the proposed legislation. <strong>(RELATED: The Iran War Is Reportedly Bleeding The Pentagon Dry)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo company receives preferential treatment. The War Department always looks for solutions to benefit the warfighter, not any pre-selected entity,\u201d a Pentagon official told the Daily Caller News Foundation. \u201cOutside affiliations, investors, or political connections play absolutely no role in the Department\u2019s funding decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The DOW and the OSC are not allowed to maintain board seats or hold a majority stake in any company, according to the proposed bill.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/10519169\/dailycaller_incontent_2 --> <\/p>\n<p>Also, any proceeds generated from these investments will not be given to the Department of War (DOW). They will be immediately redistributed into the U.S. Treasury.<\/p>\n<p>The House and Senate versions of the 2027 NDAA also include proposals to make it easier for DOW officials to lobby for defense manufacturers, grant the right to repair U.S. military equipment, and provide $2 billion for foreign interests.<\/p>\n<p>The OSC and the White House did not respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/10519169\/dailycaller_incontent_3 --> <\/p>\n<h3>Following The Money<\/h3>\n<p>The OSC was established in December 2022 to attract and scale private capital for national security priorities, according to the DOW.<\/p>\n<p>Section 903 of the 2024 NDAA codified the duties of the OSC, including \u201cimplementing capital investment strategies,\u201d according to a Congressional Research Service report from May 4.<\/p>\n<p>The Senate version of the 2027 NDAA changes the picture by creating an Equity Investment Account and authorizing the OSC director to make equity investments in entities tied to critical minerals, materials, chemicals and batteries.<\/p>\n<p>There are several downsides of allowing the Pentagon to get into private equity, including the politicization and influence of a private firm\u2019s decision-making, preferential treatment of companies in which the federal government is invested, stock market distortion and high financial risks for the U.S. government, according to the Congressional Research Service.<\/p>\n<p>Supporters of the program say that the OSC bolsters the strength of U.S.-based companies that create critical tech and weaponry for the U.S. military.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith this Notice of Funding Availability, OSC establishes itself as a credible lending partner for U.S.-based companies that manufacture and produce critical technology components,\u201d the Department of War reported on Sept. 30, 2024, citing Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen Hicks. \u201cThis demonstrates that DoD is dedicated to using every tool in our toolbox to secure America\u2019s and our military\u2019s enduring technological advantage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>DOW investments in private entities could strengthen the supply chains of critical U.S. resources.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDOD\u2019s strategic investments are building capability at multiple stages of the rare earth supply chain and will provide a clear signal to private capital that the time is right to build additional resiliency,\u201d the DOW reported on March 11, 2024, citing Danielle Miller, acting deputy assistant secretary of defense for industrial base resilience.<\/p>\n<p>Not all U.S. legislators are quick to support the new legislation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Department [of Defense] lacks the safeguards necessary to prevent conflicts of interest in the Office of Strategic Capital (OSC) \u2026 I am concerned that this is resulting in a conflation of interests that creates clear conflicts,\u201d Democratic Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren said in an  to the former Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering on July 9, 2023.<\/p>\n<p>Warren\u2019s concerns could now become reality as the Senate Armed Services Committee quietly shut down a proposed amendment to the 2027 NDAA that would have prevented the OSC from investing in any companies that \u201ctop executive branch officials or their immediate family members hold a significant ownership stake,\u201d NOTUS reported, citing Warren.<\/p>\n<p>Warren\u2019s office did not respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<p>Vulcan Elements, a North Carolina startup linked to Donald Trump Jr., received a $620 million DOW loan on Nov. 21, 2025. One Democratic congresswoman was concerned that Trump Jr. may have profited from the loan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVulcan has developed an industry-leading rare earth magnet manufacturing capability for critical defense and commercial applications and is the only magnet company with a supply chain independent from China down to the material, technology, IP, software, and ownership,\u201d a company spokesperson told the DCNF. \u201cThe company received its first three Pentagon contracts in 2024 and has delivered on 100% of its contracts and projects on time and on budget. After a year of diligence by multiple government agencies, Vulcan was selected by the Pentagon for an investment to build the largest magnet plant in the world outside of China.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDonald Trump Jr. must be made to answer whether the president\u2019s son illegally profited from his father\u2019s presidency,\u201d Democratic Oregon Rep. Maxine Dexter said during a House Committee on Natural Resources meeting on March 25.<\/p>\n<p>Vulcan is linked to Donald Trump Jr. because 1789 Capital, the venture capital firm where Trump Jr. is a partner, took an equity stake in Vulcan Elements in August 2025, according to a press release from Democratic California Rep. Jared Huffman.<\/p>\n<p>House Democrats attempted to subpoena Trump Jr. to testify about the deal, but were blocked by Republicans, according to Huffman\u2019s press release. One Republican politician claimed that it was a partisan effort to attack the Trump administration.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt just seemed like a shot at the president, but the NDAA is for serious stuff,\u201d NOTUS reported, citing Republican South Dakota Sen. Mike Rounds. \u201cWe keep all the cheap shots out, and we think the president and most of the other members would have considered that a cheap shot, and that\u2019s not what the NDAA is all about.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/hometransferguide.com\/?p=2701\">\u2018So Scary\u2019 \u2014 World #1 Aryna Sabalenka Trash Talks Confident Rookie Teodora Kostovic After Win<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Despite the concerns surrounding nepotism and high financial risks, this program does have an important purpose. It aims to help the U.S. government to jump ahead of China in the high-stakes rare earth minerals race.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201ccritical mineral\u201d supply chain is a key component of U.S. national security, the Assistant Secretary of War for industrial base policy Michael Cadenazzi Jr. said during a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing, according to the DOW.<\/p>\n<p>The loan with Vulcan would \u201cdirectly support the production of advanced rare earth element separation, metallization, and magnet manufacturing capabilities in the United States,\u201d according to the DOW.<\/p>\n<p>The loan with Vulcan is not the only recent deal to support the critical mineral supply chain. The Pentagon purchased $400 million in stock from MP Materials, a rare earth mining company, CNBC reported on July 10, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>The White House and the Department of War did not immediately respond to a request for comment regarding Vulcan.<\/p>\n<div>\n<div>\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"An aerial view of the Pentagon, which houses the US Department of Defense headquarters, in Arlington, Virginia, on May 31, 2026.

I do not think the government is ever very good at that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The proposed legislation also makes it clear that foreign involvement is restricted in these investments in Section 1052 of the 2027 NDAA.<\/p>\n<p>The director of the OSC would \u201cassess any direct or indirect foreign ownership interest in the entity, including the ability of any foreign person to exercise control or influence over the management, governance, operations, or technology of the entity,\u201d according to the 2027 NDAA.<\/p>\n<p>Language in Section 1052 also calls for the director to identify all individuals and interests that hold at least a 5% stake in any entity that the OSC would like to invest in. It also calls for an assessment to find conflicts of interest between the federal government and any executives, advisory boards and board members in these entities.<\/p>\n<h3>\u2018Do Not See Any Risks\u2019<\/h3>\n<p>Bucci pointed out that similar practices are already performed by the intelligence community in its sphere of influence.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI do not see any major risks. This is akin (but probably larger) to the Intel Communities\u2019 forays into the private sector,\u201d Bucci told the DCNF. \u201cIt will allow the Department to help smaller and high-potential firms while not restricting its interaction with the bigger companies through the normal processes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Investments by the intelligence community have played a key role in creating industry giants like Palantir.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn-Q-Tel (IQT) is CIA\u2019s venture capital firm which was created in 1999 to help identify private sector innovations that may be beneficial to CIA\u2019s core mission,\u201d according to the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) website.<\/p>\n<p>Palantir was one of In-Q-Tel\u2019s first investments, CIA whistleblower John Kiriakou explained on the Nov. 18, 2025, episode of the Julian Dorey Podcast.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn-Q-Tel\u2019s very first investment was not a lot. It was like I can\u2019t remember if it\u2019s a million and a half. I think it\u2019s a million and a half to Palantir,\u201d Kiriakou said. \u201cAnd now Palantir is a trillion-dollar company.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The real investment was likely larger than $1.5 million. In-Q-Tel invested about $2 million into Palantir, The Wall Street Journal reported on Sept. 4, 2009.<\/p>\n<p>Palantir was a part of its portfolio; however, the status is currently listed as \u201cexited,\u201d according to In-Q-Tel\u2019s website.<\/p>\n<p>Palantir did not respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn addition to having significant impact on the missions of our government partners, our work has helped build many iconic companies such as Palantir,\u201d In-Q-Tel\u2019s careers page states.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe CIA now is in the venture capital business for a profit, which is illegal,\u201d Kiriakou said on the podcast. \u201cNot if you\u2019re writing the laws,\u201d Dorey replied.<\/p>\n<p>All content created by the Daily Caller News Foundation, an independent and nonpartisan newswire service, is available without charge to any legitimate news publisher that can provide a large audience.
