MediaJustice’s Head of Programs, Jacinta González, writes a column in the Denver Post, Palantir leaves Colorado after politicians choose between dirty money and the voters they represent. She raises the question of why a company that powers mass surveillance and immigrant enforcement is so deeply embedded in our political system in the first place?
González shares research about how the data-mining firm Palantir makes billions from providing the tech surveillance platforms foundational to ICE’s operations. She also shares The Palantir Payroll: Purge Palantir’s resource that compiles all of Palantir’s political donations and the representatives who received them. This database follows the money and Palantir’s trail of state collusion.
