General Discussion

..... is that the ill/uninformed general public thinks Musk is on the outs and DOGE is done.

Not so fast in conclusions,...

DOGE is alive and well - it just has a new mastermind running the show - being Peter Thiel and his subsidiary Palantir.

trDUMP has signed a substantial government contract for Palantir to pickup where DOGE left off. The mission is to consolidate personal and private information across all government data bases of all American citizens to be used as a surveillance tool/weapon.

Donald trDUMP and Peter Thiel want desperately to get their hands on the information knowing that on the open market those consolidated databases will be worth billions and billions of dollars. That information is the life blood of powerful and dangerous Artificial Intelligence surveillance systems.

The DOGE mission goes on, but now that it is under the watchful eye of Peter Thiel - DOGE will be pushed into the back ground in the hopes people will think the rampant collection of government databases to external hard drives has been shutdown and disbanded. It is alive and well and working like little beavers to steal that private and confidential information - but off the radar screen - so public concerns about DOGE will quickly subside, thinking with eLoon Musk out of the picture the mission of DOGE is now defunct.

Dò not be fooled,... this rampant data mining of government databases is not just to assist federal agencies like ICE to better execute deportations. This Motherload database is to put all Americans under surveillance as a tool and a weapon to keep the citizenry in line and punish those not loyal to the Christo-Fascist MAGA government.

The Trump administration has tapped Palantir — the notorious data-mining firm co-founded by billionaire tech investor Peter Thiel — to compile information on people in the United States for a “master database,” creating an easy way to cross-reference sensitive data from tax records, immigration records and more. Palantir also has a $30 million contract with ICE to provide almost real-time visibility into immigrants’ movements as the agency seeks to arrest 3,000 people a day. Wired reporter Makena Kelly says the company is “becoming an operation system for the entire government,” and describes how Palantir’s contracts with the Trump administration are an outgrowth of work done by Elon Musk’s DOGE which aims to “centralize data all across government.”
