Stephen Miller, the architect of Trumps fascist immigration policy, owns between $100,000 and $250,000 in stock in Palantir, according to a new financial disclosure first reported by watchdog group Project on Government Oversight (POGO).
Palantir is a major contractor for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), meaning that it is likely that Millers ownership of Palantir stock represents a major conflict of interest. Experts told POGO that even if he hasnt directly had dealings with Palantir through his work, the firm is too close to the policies he oversees for him to own the stock without the appearance of impropriety.

Further, as a recent New York Times report found, Palantir and its Foundry software may actually be deployed in some way in at least four different federal agencies. The goal of the partnership with Palantir, the report says, is to create a centralized database to gather and compile vast amounts of information on all Americans a wide-reaching project that critics have said is unprecedented and a surveillance nightmare.
Similarly, though hes well-known for his role in immigration policy, Miller also has vast authority within the administration. His portfolio covers almost every issue Trump is interested in, The Wall Street Journal recently reported. Even some posts at cabinet agencies have been described by administration officials as reporting directly to Miller, effectively bypassing cabinet secretaries.

I don't believe that the Millers severed communication with each other or that *rump just wrote oligarch Musk and his billions off, the Millers are just operating as his back channel.
Musk and Stephen Miller seem too intimate from an ideological perspective for me to believe otherwise.
