Chipotle is working with surveillance company Palantir to build a “food safety risk platform.”
Should you be worried Palantir might be tracking how much guacamole you add to your burrito? Maybe not.
But you should be worried about what it’s doing for the federal government.

“The worst place ever I’ve been in my life," Sakariye Abdi Mohamed, a Somali asylum seeker, told me over the phone from Guantanamo Bay last week.
Sakariye is one of 7 or 8 Somalis who are being held at Gitmo. They say guards tell them the order to keep Somalis at the facility comes from DC.

I have a different view. Fossil fuel funded Trump’s campaign. They’re on his team. Blocking low-cost clean energy drives grids to their expensive power plants, sending billions in ratepayer dollars to big Trump donors. It’s a massive scam pumping money from ratepayers to donors.

The Trump administration paid federal workers $9.5 BILLION to not work in 2025, as part of Elon Musk’s DOGE effort to cut federal spending and the federal workforce.
