Disclosed Holdings & Conflicts
Palantir Technologies PLTR $100,001 - $250,000
Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy (White House) · 2025
Directs the immigration-enforcement agenda that Palantir's ICE ImmigrationOS (~$30M contract) executes, while holding Palantir stock (disclosed in a child's brokerage account). The White House said he would recuse/divest.

Documented financial-disclosure holdings paired with the policy domain the official's role governs — a documented conflict of interest, not an assertion of unlawful self-dealing.

Calculation Methodology

Contract values are summed from documented money flow chains where this entity appears as a source or destination node. Amounts are drawn from USASpending.gov, FEC filings, SEC EDGAR, or LD-2 lobbying registrations.

Donor contributions aggregate documented amounts from the donor_interests table, sourced from FEC individual and PAC contribution filings.

Connected officials are elected officials in our database with a mapped relationship (lobbying, board membership, campaign contribution, etc.) to this entity.

Annualised flow represents the total documented dollar amount traced through money flow hops involving this entity. Where hop-level amounts are unavailable, the chain-level documented total is used as a conservative upper bound.

All figures are drawn from public filings. Estimates are conservative — undisclosed transactions, dark money, and vanish-point hops are excluded from totals. This is a minimum documented floor, not a ceiling.

⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller's January 2025 OGE Form 278e re-entry filing discloses $100,001–$250,000 in Palantir stock held in a child's brokerage account, consistent with established facts but the recusal agreement portion has not been publicly released.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller's 2025 OGE Form 278e discloses $100,001-$250,000 in Palantir stock held in his child's brokerage account (not directly in his name), but neither the acquisition date nor the source of those shares (e.g., purchase vs. gift vs. trust distribution) is documented in publicly available records.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The OGE Form 278e annual filings for Stephen Miller (2017–2021) do not disclose a transaction date for his Palantir stock, making it impossible to determine whether the shares were acquired before or after his involvement in ImmigrationOS policy decisions.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 America First Legal Foundation's federal litigation docket (2021–2024) has not been systematically cross-referenced with the specific agencies Stephen Miller influenced as Senior Advisor (DHS, DOD, DOJ) in any public database or investigative report.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller holds $100,001–$250,000 in Palantir Technologies stock through a brokerage account titled in his child's name, as disclosed on his January 2025 OGE Form 278e re-entry filing.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Primary Sourcew·40 Stephen Miller's Palantir stock is held in his child's brokerage account, a structure that may complicate the enforcement of any federal conflict-of-interest divestiture requirements and reduces transparency compared to direct individual ownership.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller filed OGE Form 278e financial disclosures for his White House service (2017–2021) and a re-entry filing in January 2025; these documents are required to list Palantir stock holdings and any recusal agreements.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 America First Legal Foundation has filed litigation against at least the following federal agencies between 2021-2024: Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice, Department of Labor, Department of Education, and the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission — a pattern consistent with the claim that its founder would face overlapping recusal obligations in a future government role overseeing those agencies.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller's compensation from America First Legal Foundation would be reportable on OGE Form 278 if he returns to government, creating a mandatory ethics review of his AFL-based conflicts under 5 CFR 2635.502 — a process that could result in recusal from agency matters AFL litigates against.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 EDGAR does not assign unique personal identifiers (e.g., Social Security numbers or IRS-issued identifiers) to individual insiders, making it impossible to programmatically link a single person's insider filings across multiple companies without manual disambiguation. This is a design choice, not a technical limitation.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Primary Sourcew·40 Stephen Miller's January 2025 OGE Form 278e filing explicitly lists Palantir stock held in a child's brokerage account, a fact that SEC Rule 16a-1(a)(2) would treat as reportable but that does not automatically trigger Form 4 filing requirements for Miller individually.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The existence or absence of an ethics waiver for Stephen Miller regarding Palantir-related policy decisions cannot be determined from any currently public, searchable database — it would require direct FOIA requests to the White House ethics office or discovery in litigation.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller's Palantir stock is held in a child's brokerage account, which means any trading activity in that account would not generate SEC insider filings (Form 4) tied to Miller as an individual — creating a gap between beneficial ownership and public market disclosure requirements.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 America First Legal Foundation's Form 990 filings (2021-2024) would contain Miller's compensation arrangements — total compensation, contingent payments, and any loan or grant agreements — that the OGE Form 278e system does not require disclosing as 'assets' but that directly constitute ongoing financial interests in his own organization, creating a second potential conflict channel if he re-enters government service while AFL continues to litigate against federal agencies.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Primary Sourcew·40 Stephen Miller's Palantir stockholding is documented in OGE Form 278e filings, not SEC EDGAR filings, because the holding is held in a dependent child's brokerage account and does not trigger SEC beneficial ownership reporting thresholds.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Primary Sourcew·40 The absence of a mandatory universal personal identifier (such as the OGE financial disclosure ID) within FEC contribution records creates a structural transparency gap that prevents definitive attribution of political contributions to specific senior government officials, including Stephen Miller.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 ProPublica's Nonprofit Explorer and OpenTheBooks combine IRS 990 e-filer data with USASpending grant awards, but neither integrates SEC insider filing data or OGE Form 278 data, leaving the three-system gap identified by this claim.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No publicly available OGE ethics waiver or recusal agreement has been identified for Stephen Miller regarding Palantir Technologies, despite his documented $100K-$250K stock holding and direct role in immigration policies that expanded Palantir's ICE contracts.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The Office of Government Ethics does not routinely publish ethics agreements or recusal letters for non-Cabinet-level White House senior advisers, making public absence of these records consistent with administrative practice but not proof of non-filing.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 OGE's failure to publicly disclose ethics waivers for Miller creates an investigative blind spot where lawful compliance and unlawful conflict cannot be distinguished without FOIA
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The absence of an ethics waiver or recusal agreement in public records for Stephen Miller regarding Palantir matters creates a transparency gap that cannot be resolved through OGE Form 278e alone.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The absence of SEC insider filings for Stephen Miller's Palantir holdings does not indicate concealment; it is consistent with the legal distinction between OGE-reportable beneficial ownership and SEC-reportable insider status.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No SEC Form 3 (Initial Statement of Beneficial Ownership) or Form 4 (Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership) appears in public EDGAR records for Stephen Miller concerning Palantir Technologies securities as of the analysis date, though this requires verified CIK and filer name search.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller (White House adviser, b. 1985) has never been identified as an officer, director, or 10% beneficial owner of any SEC-reporting company in EDGAR filings, meaning his Palantir holdings are solely disclosed through OGE ethics forms (non-public EDGAR) not EDGAR insider transaction filings.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The SEC's public database of insider trading enforcement actions from 2017-2025 contains no case involving Stephen Miller, his child's brokerage account, or an SEC review of Palantir-related trading by government officials.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller's Palantir stock, worth $100,001–$250,000 as of January 2025, is held in his child's brokerage account, a structure that reduces public visibility and may obscure beneficial ownership attribution.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No OGE advisory opinion has specifically addressed the recusal obligations of former White House officials who return to government service after founding litigation-oriented 501(c)(3) organizations that are adverse to the federal government in active litigation.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No publicly released committee correspondence (letter, referral, or staff memo) from the House or Senate oversight committees requests the SEC investigate Stephen Miller's Palantir stock holdings in relation to his immigration role, as of 2023.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 SEC EDGAR lacks any field for personal identifiers (SSN, DOB, middle name) for individual filers, meaning ambiguous-name hits cannot be verified without matching CIK or address data to OGE disclosures.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No public SEC enforcement action, administrative proceeding, or settled investigation naming Stephen Miller and relating to Palantir stock conflicts exists in SEC public databases as of the knowledge cutoff
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller's Palantir stock ownership, disclosed on OGE Form 278e as held in a child's brokerage account, would trigger imputed disqualification under 5 CFR 2635.502(a)(2) if the child's financial interest in Palantir is attributable to Miller — this regulatory standard applies regardless of the account's nominal ownership.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The OGE public ethics waiver database contains zero entries for Stephen Miller for the period 2017-2021, consistent with the broader documented failure of the Trump administration to issue and publish legally required ethics waivers for senior officials with financial conflicts of interest.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The SEC EDGAR's lack of unique personal identifiers for filers named 'Stephen Miller' creates a systematic transparency gap that prevents cross-referencing of insider trading reports with OGE ethics disclosures for this individual.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No OGE ethics waiver or recusal letter documenting how Miller addressed the appearance of a conflict between his Palantir stock ownership and his role shaping ICE immigration enforcement contracting has been publicly released.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 SEC EDGAR contains multiple filings for individuals named 'Stephen Miller' associated with unrelated companies (SouthEast Bancshares, Eclipse Identity Recognition), but no Form 4 insider filing exists for any Stephen Miller with Palantir Technologies — meaning OGE Form 278e is the sole public source for his Palantir holdings, and cross-referencing requires manual OGE-SEC comparison that no single database performs automatically.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller's Palantir stock holding was publicly disclosed on OGE Form 278e during the 2017-2021 period, but no contemporaneous recusal letter or OGE ethics agreement associated with that holding is publicly available through FOIA-produced records or litigation discovery.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No Form 3, 4, or 5 insider transaction filing for Palantir Technologies (CIK 0001321655) could be attributed to Stephen Miller (White House adviser) through EDGAR's CIK-based system alone; any such filing would require secondary identification via filer relationship to be considered reliable.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The dual presence of Stephen Miller and Kara Frederick as Palantir shareholders in senior DHS-adjacent policy roles creates a collective appearance of conflict that exceeds individual ethics review capability — no mechanism exists to aggregate multiple officials' holdings in the same contractor for systemic risk assessment.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No congressional committee has publicly investigated or held hearings on the apparent conflict between Stephen Miller's Palantir stock holdings and his role designing immigration enforcement policies that generated substantial revenue for Palantir.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No publicly accessible OGE recusal letter, ethics agreement, or advisory opinion referencing 5 CFR 2635.502 has been released for Stephen Miller since his re-entry into federal service in January 2025.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The absence of SEC enforcement actions against Stephen Miller is structurally overdetermined and carries no probative value regarding whether any SEC investigation or ethics inquiry occurred — SEC investigations are confidential by default under 17 CFR §202.5 and 80% close without any public filing.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No congressional committee has publicly documented requesting the SEC investigate Stephen Miller's Palantir stock holdings in relation to his immigration policy role
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 While five FEC transaction records exist for individuals named 'Stephen Miller,' all five donors have employer fields and locations inconsistent with Stephen Miller (White House adviser, b. 1985): International Association of Machinists (Milford, OH), Northwest Airlines (employer/location not matchable), Chevron (San Francisco, CA), Washington Mutual (employer/location not matchable), and one additional donor from a non-matching employer. This suggests no political contributions from the White House adviser are currently identifiable in the FEC's itemized database.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The SEC's 5% beneficial ownership threshold means Stephen Miller's documented $100k-$250k Palantir stake is likely well below the filing trigger for Schedule 13D/G, making absence from SEC EDGAR legally unremarkable but nonetheless a transparency gap for congressional oversight.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The timing of Stephen Miller's acquisition of Palantir stock (before, during, or after his White House service) is not documented in any publicly available source, creating a potential unreviewed ethics gap.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller's 2025 re-entry OGE Form 278e discloses $100,001-$250,000 of Palantir Technologies stock held in a child's UTMA/UGMA brokerage account, a custodial structure that may alter which recusal regulations apply versus direct ownership.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Multiple unrelated individuals named 'Stephen Miller' are listed in FEC contribution records with verifiable transaction IDs (PR245906211463, PR53260315912), each associated with employers and locations that do not match the White House adviser's biographical profile (e.g., Ohio machinists' union, San Francisco oil/gas).
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No itemized FEC contributions from any individual matching Stephen Miller's known biographical profile (employer: White House, U.S. Senate, or America First Legal Foundation; occupation: policy advisor) have been found in comprehensive FEC searches conducted across his three distinct employment periods (Senate 2009-2016, White House 2017-2021, AFLF 2021-present).
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The SEC EDGAR system does not incorporate standardized unique personal identifiers across different CIKs, making automated cross-referencing of insider trading filings for individuals with common names such as 'Stephen Miller' impossible without manual disambiguation.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller's Palantir stock is held beneficially through a custodial account (child's brokerage) and does not trigger any individual SEC Form 4 or Schedule 13D filing obligation, rendering EDGAR searches under his name structurally incapable of confirming or denying ownership.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No SEC EDGAR filing (Form 3, 4, 5, or Schedule 13D/G) has been publicly identified that reports beneficial ownership of Palantir Technologies stock by Stephen Miller (White House adviser, b. 1985); existing disclosures of his Palantir holdings come from OGE Form 278e ethics filings, not SEC filings.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No public database systematically indexes OGE ethics waivers or recusal commitments, so the existence or absence of such waivers for Stephen Miller is unverifiable through standard public records searches.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 No public cross-database linkage mechanism exists between OGE financial disclosure forms and SEC insider trading filings for White House advisers, meaning any trades by an adviser in a company that holds government contracts (like Palantir) would require manual identification across separate databases.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller's 2025 OGE Form 278e is publicly available (filed Jan 20, 2025) and confirms Palantir holdings of $100k-$250k, but no corresponding ethics recusal agreement has been identified in the public record.
✓ verified AI Inference No SEC insider trading filings (Forms 3, 4, or 5) for Palantir Technologies exist under the name 'Stephen Miller' for the period 2017-2021, consistent with him not being a corporate insider under SEC Rule 16a-1.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 The absence of SEC insider trading filings for Stephen Miller is consistent with his status as a White House adviser (not a corporate insider), but the OGE disclosure regime systematically underreports the temporal relationship between his stock ownership and his policy actions that benefited Palantir.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller's Palantir stock ownership was not disclosed on any OGE Form 278e during his 2017-2021 White House service, appearing only in his 2025 disclosure after returning to government as Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, which creates a question about whether the stock was acquired during his government service or post-government.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 OGE Form 278e re-entry filings from January 2025 would require Miller to disclose any loan or grant from AFL as an 'asset' if the amount exceeded $5,000 and the terms created a financial interest — but informal arrangements or verbal agreements may not be captured.
⚠ flagged by Gemini Partially Corroboratedw·40 Stephen Miller, a senior Trump White House official deeply involved in immigration enforcement, holds Palantir stock valued at $100,001-$250,000 according to his 2025 federal financial disclosure (first reported by the Project On Government Oversight). Because Palantir is a major ICE/DHS contractor, ethics experts have flagged the holding as a conflict of interest given Miller's influence over immigration policy.
✓ verified Pending Review [v0.2.0_PATCH4-10 REROUTE] SEC EDGAR cannot reliably attribute filings to Stephen Miller (White House Senior Advisor, b. 1985) versus other individuals with the same name — EDGAR lacks standardized personal identifiers. Reconstruct his verifiable financial trajectory from properly-attributed sources instead: (a) OGE Form 278e financial disclosures 2017-2021 (White House Senior Advisor service), (b) America First Legal Foundation IRS Form 990 filings 2021-2025 (founder/president period), (c) OGE Form 278e re-entry filings from January 2025 (Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy). Investigable: pull OGE 278e filings; pull AFLF Form 990s including Schedule B fragments; resolve original 'Palantir shareholding' question through properly-attributed disclosures; obtain 2025 ethics agreement and any divestiture/recusal documentation; map AFLF funder-grantee relationships through grantee 990s.
