The Anti-Fraud Company wants to build a private sector DOGE. They will use AI and investigative journalism to pioneer “Snitching-as-a-Service.” I sat down with @alexkshieh to understand this more.

My co-founders @HajSharda (antitrust expert and author), @BarclayDavidP (ex-FTC), & I have spent our lives fighting against fraud. We're leveling up to the biggest challenge yet: fighting corporate fraudsters who defraud our government.

$500B (!) of federal dollars are lost to fraud each year, but there is no incentive to tackle it from within the government. The answer is the private sector: The Antifraud Company monetizes via government whistleblower rewards programs.

I'm dropping out of Brown to start a company. They tried to expel me for sending the DOGE email to 3,805 (!) administrators, but they ended up slashing over 100 positions to fix their budget deficit (you're welcome). My talents are now required elsewhere. I'm dropping out to

VICTORY for Bloat@Brown: Last semester, I sent the DOGE email to all 3,805 (!) administrators at @BrownUniversity asking them what they do all day — at a school with only 1,691 profs and 7,226 undergrads, but costs $93k a year. Brown tried to expel me for causing "emotional

The news about Charlie Kirk is devastating. When Brown tried to kick me out, Charlie used his platform to rally support. He was a good guy and didn't deserve this.

This is more evidence for the argument that elite college admissions policies aren’t meant to boost the chances of lower income students, but to decrease the chances for middle class applicants: @alexkshieh

If you *only* used SAT to admit to elite colleges, share of admits from top 1% income falls 15.8% → 9.9% and representation from <$200k rises by +8.8%, with no reduction in post-college outcomes. It's 'holistic review' and 'ban SAT' policy that allows the most wealthy and

What’s up with @BrownUniversity and committing antitrust violations to inflate tuition?! 🤦‍♂️ Obviously 90k a year isn’t the result of competitive market forces…

When a public high school foundation in California took a whopping 25% cut of student club funds, seniors Liam Tian & Kevin Wang DOGE’d them. Their principal blasted them in a school-wide email. Now an audit confirms fraud, waste & abuse. Absolute legends.
