Alex Karp wants to be friends with Democrats again
Mother Jones interviews defense reporter Sharon Weinberger, whose book Valley of Death tracks the "arsenal of the broligarchy," about Alex Karp's pitch to Democrats after Palantir worked with ICE, built military AI, and allied with the anti-woke right under Trump. Weinberger calls Karp a chameleon who has long tried to have it both ways, says defense firms survive by maneuvering across administrations, and predicts a coming consolidation of defense startups.
