Former Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-Wis.) has joined Palantir Technologies Inc., the U.S. defense contractor announced on Aug. 22. This confirms a rumor about the union that has been circulating for months.
The China hawk, who championed legislation that could force TikTok’s China-based owner, Bytedance, to sell the app or face a U.S. ban, will join Palantir as its head of defense, replacing Doug Philippone, who will stay on as an adviser.
