Immigrations and Customs Enforcement shared Medicaid data it improperly obtained from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service with data analytics firm Palantir, NPR reported Friday.

Palantir’s “ELITE” app is utilized by ICE agents to show addresses of noncitizens who may be subject to deportation.

The improper data-sharing came to light after more than 20 Democratic states’ attorneys general filed a public motion on Thursday in an ongoing lawsuit challenging CMS’s data-sharing agreement with ICE.

“Defendants produced documents confirming that Medicaid data from Plaintiff States had been shared with employees or contractors of Palantir,” the motion reads.

1. First of all

Palantir shouldn't even be in the mix. It has no business having anything to do with government, but as a "contractor" it has now got its tentacles everywhere, apparently. WORLDWIDE, even. And of course, making its CEO immensely rich, although it's spun off multiple "children". And that's what's scary.
