The broligarchy strikes again. South African billionaire Peter Thiel's Palantir. This is the dude who groomed and hand delivered JD Vance to the white house. It's all a big grift at our expense.
One fear w/ combining OSINT like Palantir, AI decision making, w/ this administration has been combining everyone's public and private data to determine a tyrant's version of a social credit score: a grade based on how loyal you are to the admin and consequences for people below a certain grade.

Elon Musk’s xAI powering its facility in Memphis with ‘illegal’ generators
Advocacy group contends the firm is using 35 methane gas burning turbines, but has permission for only 15
KeShaun Pearson took a seat in front of the Shelby county board of commissioners in Memphis, Tennessee, on Wednesday morning. In the gallery behind him, a small group of people held up signs that said “Our air = our lives” and “Our water, Our future.” With a manner-of-fact demeanor, Pearson addressed the commissioners.
“I’m here because today we’ve learned that xAI is using 35 methane gas burning turbines,” said Pearson, who is the director of the advocacy group Memphis Community Against Pollution. “They have submitted a permit to our Shelby county health department for 15, yet they are using double that amount with no permit.” Continue reading...

Really glad to see that this program was reinstated. Shows that pressure and scrutiny can have an impact.
The Trump administration quietly reinstated a State Dept program allowing the tracking of Ukrainian children sent to Russia. There was enormous pressure--after the story was first reported in the US by @gregsargent.bsky.social in the @newrepublic.com. See newrepublic.com/article/1927...
Trump Admin Nixed Contract Helping Kidnapped Ukrainian Children
The fate of abducted Ukrainian children is a white-hot issue for peace negotiations—and it looks like the State Department may have just undercut the cause.

On Tuesday, President Donald Trump issued a massive anti-voting executive order.
One provision looks like a bid to advance a goal that for years has been a borderline obsession for Trump: cracking down on voting by mail.
