Palantir is private so hard to know revenue breakdown. But hard to believe that over 50% of their revenue (what I would consider core) comes from ICE, military and police.

I found this article [0] from 2018 that said half of its $1B in revenue comes from government and the other half from corporate.

So if every penny of government work comes from ICE and ICE-likes maybe that’s core.
