Join us in a captivating discussion with Bigfoot expert Thom Powell. In this episode, Thom shares his incredible journey from a skeptical science teacher to a respected figure in Bigfoot research. He recaps his deep involvement with the BFRO and highlights notable incidents, including the discovery of the Skookum Cast in Gifford Pinchot National Forest and the mysterious encounters in the Clackamas River Basin. Thom delves into the concept of Bigfoot habituation and recounts his communications with a psychic that allegedly led to compelling evidence, such as a shadowy figure captured on a trail camera and an emu bone found in peculiar circumstances. Not to mention the strange, almost humorous interactions that hint at Bigfoot's intelligence and playfulness.

Before January, most Americans had probably never heard of the Bureau of the Fiscal Service (BFS), a Treasury Department agency that distributes payments from the federal government. But over the last month, this corner of government has appeared again and again in the headlines, as aides working with Elon Musk's quasi-governmental DOGE initiative successfully gained access to BFS's payment systems. After a flurry of litigation, a temporary restraining order now bars these aides from accessing data—but the crisis is not over. It's still not clear precisely what happened within BFS or what access political actors within the administration might gain in the future, and DOGE continues to access similarly sensitive systems in other agencies, such as the Social Security Administration and the Internal Revenue Service.To understand what's happening, Senior Editor Quinta Jurecic spoke with Wendy Edelberg, Director of the Hamilton Project and Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution, and Jacob Leibenluft, who served in the Treasury Department and the Office of Management and Budget under the Biden administration. Why is it so alarming to have political appointees accessing BFS systems? What does this tell us about the administration's political goals? And what manner of crises could result from this kind of meddling? We value your feedback! Help us improve by sharing your thoughts at lawfaremedia.org/survey.
