It has been reported that the Trump administration is working with Palantir Technologies to develop a vast federal data platform that would integrate personal records from various agencies, including the IRS, Social Security Administration, and Department of Homeland Security. This platform is designed to connect sensitive records across key agencies."

This is hilarious, given that one of the main Right wing tropes has, for years, been the surveillance by the Federal Government, how they’re putting microchips to track you in vaccines, how the FBI is infiltrating their secret lodge meetings, how vocal the reaction has been to National Identity Cards, and so on.

Now it’s all going to be in one giant file cabinet, available to multiple agencies 24/7, presumably with some sorts of “checks and balances.” Sure.
