Snopes - Marjorie Taylor Greene bought Palantir shares days before ICE awarded the company a $30M contract [View all]

U.S. Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a Republican from Georgia, bought shares of Palantir Technologies days before the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement announced a $30 million contract with the company.

Rating: True


Context
