DOGE
This introduction to Data Republican and what her work entails is really worth a look (15 min). She covers her objectives and her values. Interesting that she is a software engineer with bloodhound instincts. She also has an incredible video explaining how AI and indexing work. Will update with that.
Benz was trumpeting the attack on USAID before Trump began his term. He has a LOT to say about the US State Dept + DOD + CIA global initiatives over the years in regime change, culture wars, and his top target, censorship. He has several other long form interviews that could deliver great nuggets if unpacked. Please share a takeaway with a point worth sharing!
