The company has received over $113 million in federal spending since Trump took office, the report said, citing public records, including extra funds from existing contracts as well as new contracts with the Pentagon and the Department of Homeland Security.

Palantir ( PLTR ) officials are also speaking with the Social Security Administration and the Internal Revenue Service about buying its technology, the government officials and company employees reportedly said.

Palantir ( PLTR ) did not immediately reply to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
