"MAGA Inc.": CorpWatch on Trump's World of Tech Titans, Crypto Czars & Prison Profiteers

A new report by CorpWatch titled ”MAGA Inc.” reveals which allies of President Trump are profiting off of the administration’s policies. Pratap Chatterjee, executive director of CorpWatch, says that prison companies and Big Tech companies have cashed out on policies of mass deportation. “The people that we think are profiting the most out of MAGA [are in] the business of deportation, the business of gathering data,” says Chatterjee. Palantir, in particular, has provided the government with information to support the surveillance of immigrants and data to support war efforts. The Trump family is also expanding their fortune through cryptocurrency, according to the report. “These are schemes by which you can move money anonymously around the world, something that drug dealers, gun manufacturers or gun dealers and criminals love,” says Chatterjee. “This is the sort of business that is now benefiting the Trump family.”
