## Bio

Fishback was born January 1, 1995, and worked as a research analyst at Greenlight Capital before founding Azoria Partners. In 2025 he made an unsuccessful bid for the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. The following year he entered the Republican primary for Florida governor, deploying rhetoric that observers labeled white nationalist and nativist, built around debunked Great Replacement conspiracy theories - what political analysts described as deliberate rage-bait strategy. He did not win the nomination. The campaign pulled scrutiny: false claims about an advisory role with the Department of Government Efficiency, legal disputes over his business dealings, and allegations he had sexually groomed a 17-year-old, which he denied.
