Listen to the original audio · Transcribed with NVIDIA Parakeet · Why times can differ in your player

The data Republican, it's almost sounds like she's a superhero, but this person is single-handedly identifying so much fraud and waste in the government. It's ridiculous. And I think, look, regardless of whether you're a Democrat or Republican or Independent or whatever, everyone agrees. There shouldn't be waste in the government. There shouldn't be fraud in the government.

Like I remember stories of, oh, the military just bought a pencil for six million dollars. I mean, these were true stories because you could track all this data. Now, the data is very hard to find. So what Data Republican has done is build tools. to go go through all the government data which is publicly accessible but you kind of have to dig to find interesting things she goes through all the government data and uses ai to find things that are potentially wasteful let's not say fraudulent but at least wasteful we want taxpayer dollars saved but here's the interesting thing as and and by the way data republicans been so useful and successful that Elon Musk

used her stuff to help identify waste in the government. But here's the thing, and Data Republican, by the way, you can find her on on Twitter or you can go to datarepublican.com where she has all these tools where you can even help her find government waste. She's both deaf and mute. She's been deaf since almost since birth. uh she can't hear she's never made a phone call in her life for instance and she's mute she does not speak so we also had on the data interpreter her translator who who you'll see you'll see the two of them in action but i i really wanted to understand what is the fraud not and again not fraud's a strong word what is the waste that she's been uncovering what does she see what is she working on
