Rep. Mike Gallagher, a Wisconsin GOP member known for his anti-China stance, has announced his departure from Congress next month to join Palantir, as reported by Teddy Schleifer and confirmed by Forbes and @DavidJeans2. This decision, informed by two sources, has sparked criticism, with some, including Alex Bruesewitz, accusing Gallagher of acting in the interests of Palantir during his time in Congress and labeling him a 'RINO'.
It seems like RINO Mike Gallagher has been acting as Palantir’s personal congressman for the last year. Congress members should NOT be allowed to negotiate private sector jobs while holding office! It’s a crooked practice!

SCOOP — @RepGallagher has told people that he is planning to take a job at Palantir, I'm told by two sources. The Wisconsin GOP anti-China hawk announced today that he is leaving Congress next month. May not be 100% done, but that's what he has told people he is doing next.
