Everything We Know About the Ultra-Exclusive MAGA Clubhouse in Georgetown [View all]
https://www.washingtonian.com/2025/05/30/everything-we-know-about-the-ultra-exclusive-maga-clubhouse-in-georgetown/
It costs up to $500,000 to join Executive Branch, the new private club for the MAGA elite in Georgetown. The ultra-exclusive clubhouse counts Donald Trump Jr. as a founder, along with a cadre of the President’s megadonors and crypto titans.
The club will offer fewer than 200 memberships, and there’s already a waitlist, according to the New York Times. The expectation is that the President himself will make appearances, just as he did at the DC Trump hotel during his first White House term.
“This is not just for any Saudi businessman,” an anonymous spokesperson for the club told the Times. According to Politico, the owners include investment banker and Trump ally Omeed Malik along with his business partner Chris Buskirk as well as Zach and Alex Witkoff, the sons of real estate investor turned US envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff. Founding members include White House AI and crypto czar David Sacks, venture capitalist Chamath Palihapitiya, and crypto investors Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss (the twins who famously sued Mark Zuckerberg over Facebook’s ownership).
“We wanted a place to hang out and the clubs that exist in Washington today have been around for decades. They’re kind of old and stuffy…. So we wanted to create something, new hipper, and Trump aligned,” Sacks said recently in his All-In podcast. (Because he works in government, he says he can’t be an owner.) “We want a place to go where you don’t have to worry that the next person over at the bar is a fake news reporter or even a lobbyist.”

Here's a toxic waste dump to steer clear of.
