I don't know what your questions mean or how it addresses my comment so I'll just repeat.
Political maneuvering doesn't mean someone is not a libertarian, and military and border control are not incompatible with libertarianism either.
Thiel like anybody has pretty complex views that don't fit neatly in a box, you could argue where they put him in the spectrum, but the examples you used are poor. I know many libertarian purists obsess over their image and "principle" to the detriment of actually achieving anything politically, but that doesn't mean all of them act this way.
