Palantir is EVIL.
ANYONE working for Palantir is complicit in evil, complicit in committing atrocities against humanity and must be held accountable for their part.
A manual for ICE's immigrant-targeting computer system, Palantir ELITE, was leaked today.

Let's look at it, then step back to evaluate how far we've come along a dangerous road and where that road might take us. 🧵
Here is the User Guide for ELITE, the Tool Palantir Made for ICE
404 Media is publishing a version of the user guide for ELITE, which lets ICE bring up dossiers on individual people and provides a “confidence score” of their address.

If he does this, and isn't impeached and removed, it's a Rubicon moment where we are no longer a republic. Sorry, I don't care how much Republicans like his policies or fear his wrath, you can't just let a president cut checks to himself from the Treasury.
Trump on his multiple suits against the federal government: "I'm supposed to work out a settlement with myself ... We could make it a substantial amount, nobody would care, because it's gonna go to numerous, very good charities."

So the Epstein files dump

1. Protected a lot of predictors

2. Created another partisan food fight.

3. Failed to create any obvious pathway for these women to get accountability.

4. Included a number of clearly unverified claims that can be used to undermine the very legit emails

The GOP = RACIST THUGS
If you're wondering just how far right the GOP is in Tarrant County, where Taylor Rehmet just pulled off a stunning upset, here is the type of stuff that the party's (now former) chairman posts on a daily basis with almost zero backlash from others in the party.
The leader of the GOP in Tarrant County - Texas' third-largest county and the largest Republican-held county in America - has spent this week openly spewing racial slurs and mocking people who will lose access to food stamps on Nov. 1.

So, THIS is why Paul Weiss Law Firm groveled to Trump?
This is an interesting thread, to which I would add the following facts:

Feb. 21, 2025: Bondi says she has Epstein's "client list" on her desk

March 3, 2025: Bondi says she has a "truckload" of new Epstein evidence she will make public ...
Yes, this friendly 2019 Jeffrey Epstein email exchange is about the owner of the Patriots, Robert Kraft. But it's more important who it is WITH: Brad Karp, the chairman of Paul, Weiss. And Karp was still chairman when Paul, Weiss became the first law firm to cave to Trump's demands in 2025. 1/
