    As a german I am sorry for Palantir, Peter Thiel (and by extension Elon Musk), Adolf and Donald Trump. We are just not exporting the best we’ve got and I am terribly sorry for that. We will try and change that in the near future.

    The investment, held in one of Miller’s children’s brokerage accounts, raises conflict of interest red flags as the tech company continues to play a substantial role in the work of U.S. immigration officials.

    Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin called the group’s report “very silly”

    … This is the same official spokesperson that downplayed concerns about Trump trying to shut down the office of Civil Rights and Liberties, and then like a month later defended DHS and the Pentagon hooking federal employees up to a lie detector test to find leaks

    The watchdog group that obtained Miller’s filing identified 11 other administration officials who either currently hold or have owned stock in Palantir, though none with holdings as large as Miller.

    Guess he has a vested interest in acting like a hateful psychopath, and gleefully breaking apart families. It’s good for business.

    The guy who funded frump in 2016 and 2024, who hand picked and funded Vance for VP, and controls all the data and knowledge within the data sets of every single law enforcement, investigation, defense, social service, finance, tax, and security agency in the US, and owns several members of congress, also has stock in palantir because he is palantir.

    Hi Petey!

    Remember how the story ended - those who thought they could rule by knowing all and controlling all, through fear and force, were destroyed - by those with will and wisdom.

    held in one of Miller’s children’s brokerage accounts

    So not exactly for his own benefit. Doesn’t say who manages the account.

    Sometimes the ownership is through a fund, too, but this sounds like direct ownership.

      Palantir Technologies was co-founded by Peter Thiel, Alex Karp, Joe Lonsdale, and Stephen Cohen in 2003

          The headline is that Stephen Miller of the Trump administration, owns stock in Palantir. Miller is not Peter Thiel. Miller is the angry bald guy that is always dramatically screaming we should be more aggressive with deportation policy.

          Because he, and 10 others in the administration, own stock in the company that also receives millions in federal contracts regarding immigration and deportation, one might suggest Miller has a vested interest in the policies he is always aggressively screaming about being necessary for America’s safety.

          Considering that even the conservative Cato institute has said the deportation policies outlined in the big beautiful bill, will ultimately cost tax payers trillions of dollars to fund, one might suggest that the policies Miller and others in the administration have put forth, are actually driven by greed rather than any ideology or belief that what they are doing is in America’s best interest.

          The blurb mentioning Thiel’s company is to provide context to the reader about how much money his company has already made under this administration.

          Given that Thiel and the entire administration do all seem to be in agreement that democracy should be dismantled in order for a ruling class of chosen elite to take it’s place, one might begin to wonder, if that is really a good idea. It would seem then, that it is as newsworthy as anything else documenting more blatant corruption and scamming of America by the chosen elite who are leading this administration, and hoping to convince everyone what they’re doing is in America’s best interest.

    This guy, and people like him, should be put out of our misery. If he’s not living in fear then he’ll continue making your life worse.

    He’s a parasite, and parasites are detrimental to the health of the majority and they should be dealt with accordingly.

    These jackals are always whining about Democratic insider trading, and here they are doing it themselves, and hiding it in their child’s account. At least corrupt Dems like Pelosi and Schumer own it themselves.

    Pointing at Stephen Miller and exclaiming “Conflict of interest!” is like arriving late to a party and then farting quietly in a corner.
