Katie Miller DOGE conflict: Stephen Miller holds $100K-250K Palantir stock while DOGE employs Palantir alumni
Katie Miller served as DOGE communications director (Jan-May 2025) while her husband Stephen Miller (White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy) disclosed $100,001-$250,000 in Palantir stock. Palantir is deeply embedded in ICE operations and other federal agencies Miller oversees in his policy role. At least three former Palantir employees also worked in DOGE. POGO (Project on Government Oversight) flagged this as a conflict of interest: Miller's deep involvement in ICE enforcement policy while holding Palantir stock, combined with his wife's DOGE communications role that shapes public narrative around government restructuring affecting Palantir's government client agencies. Katie Miller was also placed on the President's Intelligence Advisory Board (Feb 2025), adding another layer of access.

Katie Miller: DOGE comms director also placed on President's Intelligence Advisory Board (Feb 2025)
In February 2025, while serving as DOGE communications director, Katie Miller was also named to the President's Intelligence Advisory Board (PIAB). PIAB is a White House advisory body that provides the President with independent assessments of the intelligence community's effectiveness. This dual appointment — DOGE comms director shaping public narrative about government restructuring plus PIAB member with intelligence oversight access — is notable. Her husband Stephen Miller, as Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy, already had extensive policy influence. The Miller household thus had simultaneous access to: (1) DOGE operations and messaging (Katie), (2) White House policy apparatus (Stephen), (3) intelligence advisory function (Katie PIAB). Katie departed Musk's team by August 2025 to launch a conservative media venture.
