His comments follow revelations about Trump's executive order that expanded Palantir's role in federal data sharing, allowing the company, co-founded by Peter Thiel, to aggregate sensitive information across various federal agencies. This initiative has alarmed privacy advocates and lawmakers who fear potential data weaponization, emphasizing how political biases can impact media narratives on such privacy issues.
Bannon acknowledged that if a Democratic administration pursued a data aggregation project like Trump's with Palantir, it would dominate his show's agenda.
