DataRepublican, Jennica Pounds, is said to be employed by the Dept of War.
Pounds has been deaf since contracting spinal meningitis at age 2. She is on the autism spectrum and has expressive dysphasia, a neurological condition characterized by difficulty in producing language while comprehension remains intact. In an interview with The Post, she uses text-to-speech software to communicate in a robotic voice.
For a severely handicapped individual, she is quite productive. Reportedly she did help with DOGE.
That’s great news and I’m so glad they scooped her up to use her unique skills to ferret out corruption.
It was her program that DOGE used to follow the money. The controversy is that Tore said DataRepublican stole that software from her public github.
