A Note from James:The Data Republican—it almost sounds like a superhero name. And in a way, she is. She's been single-handedly uncovering massive amounts of government waste and inefficiency. It's honestly unbelievable. And regardless of whether you're a Democrat, Republican, Independent, or anything else, I think we can all agree: there shouldn't be waste or fraud in the government.You've heard the old stories—like the military buying a pencil for $6 million. Those weren't urban legends. They were real, and you could track them through publicly available data. The problem now is that the data is harder to find and much harder to analyze. That's where Data Republican comes in. She's built tools that comb through this public data—yes, it's all technically accessible—and uses AI to flag things that are, if not outright fraudulent, at least seriously wasteful. This is about saving taxpayer dollars.She's made such an impact that even Elon Musk has used her tools to help identify government waste.You can find her on Twitter or at datarepublican.com, where she shares tools you can use to help spot waste yourself. But here's something even more remarkable: she's both deaf and mute. She's been deaf since early childhood and has never made a phone call in her life. She doesn't speak either.So, in this episode, we're also joined by The Data Interpreter—her translator—who helps communicate her responses. You'll hear both of them in action.I wanted to understand: what kind of waste has she uncovered? What does she see? What is she working on? What tools can we use from her site? How did she get started with this?We've edited out the pauses for translation to keep the conversation flowing, but you'll hear the full exchange between her and her interpreter. It was a fascinating and eye-opening conversation. Listen and learn.Episode Description:James Altucher sits down with the anonymous data investigator known as "DataRepublican" to explore government waste, corruption, and influence networks that operate in plain sight. From bizarre examples of foreign aid spending to powerful NGOs and their entanglement with corporations and Congress, this episode unpacks how taxpayer money circulates through a tangled web of lobbying, insider boards, and private interests. DataRepublican also shares her origin story, from analyzing charities like the Girl Scouts to building AI tools that track federal awards—and the personal fallout of being doxed for her work. If you've ever wondered where your tax dollars actually go, this is an eye-opening conversation.What You'll Learn:How private corporations use lobbying and advisory boards to steer government spendingWhy USAID and its partner NGOs may be central hubs for inefficiency and influenceThe real reason massive companies like Disney and Land O'Lakes receive taxpayer moneyHow DataRepublican's AI tools help trace connections between government officials and private interestsWhat you can do to research and report suspicious spending yourselfTimestamped Chapters:[00:00] Introduction: Uncovering Government Waste and Fraud[00:43] The US Global Leadership Council (USGLC) and Its Influence[01:54] Corporate Funding and Government Aid[03:14] The Complex Web of Lobbying and Influence[08:03] Egregious Examples of Misallocated Funds[10:30] The Role of NGOs and Former Government Officials[18:26] Personal Journey: From Charity Analysis to Government Oversight[20:57] Exploring Government Fraud and Waste[22:07] Charity and Government Spending Issues[22:36] Department of Defense and Misallocated Funds[23:20] Congressional Conflicts of Interest[24:38] Social Security and Identity Issues[25:58] Personal Journey and Overcoming Challenges[26:53] Naked Wines Sponsorship[29:38] Future Projects and Doxing Incident[32:18] Addressing Government Waste and Solutions[35:14] Final Thoughts and Call to ActionAdditional Resources:DataRepublican on TwitterUSGLC: U.S. Global Leadership CoalitionUSAID (U.S. Agency for International Development)Naked Wines - Use Code “James”To get 6 bottles of wine for $39.99, head to NakedWines.com/JAMES and use code JAMES for both the code AND PASSWORD.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This quarter of the Future of Agriculture podcast is made possible by Case IH: https://www.caseih.com/en-us/unitedstatesMcCain's Farms of the FutureHot Potato PodcastToday's episode features Dr. Michelle D'Souza. Michelle is the Manager of Research and Innovation for McCain's Farm of the Future Project. In this role, her mission is to empower McCain on its journey to developing sustainable corporate frameworks that benefit society and nature through regenerative agriculture.Some of you may know that McCain has set some ambitious goals for transitioning their potato supply chain to regenerative agriculture. Over the years they have been willing to lead in their commitments and also back those commitments up with incentives and support for farmers trying to adopt regenerative practices. As such, they have hired scientists like Michelle. Dr. Michelle D'Souza is a molecular ecologist whose work focuses on biodiversity conservation, community engagement, and knowledge mobilization. So first and foremost, she is a scientist who in addition to her work at McCain still works as a Visiting Scientist at the Centre for Biodiversity Genomics. Michelle and I have a great conversation about McCain's commitments, how the progress has been so far, and how their farms of the future are designed to serve as farm-scale laboratories for regenerative transition. We also discuss why biodiversity should be a goal we should strive for in agriculture, who is responsible paying for soil conservation, and a whole lot more. Brought to you by Case IH: Case IH designs, engineers and produces cutting-edge farm equipment based on a comprehensive understanding of farmers' needs, wants and challenges, integrating these insights into their development and manufacturing.For example, take their Model Year 25 Magnum tractor. The new Magnum is purposefully designed to answer farmers' needs in every design and engineering choice. Improved horsepower for pulling heavier loads, faster. Bundled, integrated and ready-to-go precision tech for greater accuracy in the field. And a transmission farmers can tweak for improved control and performance in different tasks. That kind of design thinking is exactly where the future of ag is headed, and that's why you'll be hearing me talk to the folks at Case IH at different points throughout this quarter about what they do and how they're working to push the ag forward.

Dr. Colin Bell - formerly of Mammoth Microbes and currently working with the incredible Miim Horticulture - returns to the show! Today we are doing a microbial deep dive in an attempt to understand what is essentially a massive iceberg of microbe knowledge. We only know a brief portion of how powerful and influential micro organisms are, but every year we are understanding more and more about how bacteria, fungi, and other tiny beings shape the world around us. Colin gives us a great breakdown of how microbes work from a basic perspective, how they interact and communicate with plants, and eventually dives deep enough to explain that just about everything to do with the human experience is powered by the microbiology within our own human microbiome. Even plants themselves, may have evolved from collections of ancient bacteria- thus it is crucial to understand and employ more of these tiny organisms in our own home gardens!

What if much of what we believe about the end times is shaped more by modern speculation than by biblical theology? In this episode, Dr. Matthew L. Halsted joins The Biblical Mind Podcast to debunk common misconceptions about eschatology, including the rapture, the mark of the beast, and the role of the Middle East in biblical prophecy. Halsted and Dru Johnson explore how American Christianity has often read Revelation through a me-centered lens, focusing on personal fears rather than the broader biblical narrative of renewal and justice. They discuss the history of end-times speculation, tracing it from the 16th century to modern prophecy teachers, and why discipline in reading scripture is crucial to avoiding theological confusion. Drawing from his book The End of the World as We Know It, Halsted unpacks how early Christians understood eschatology and why the Bible's emphasis is not on escaping the world but on God's renewal of creation.
