It's not nothing.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#302 Joe Lonsdale - If China Takes Taiwan, AI Sets Back 10 Years

That's pretty good stuff.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#302 Joe Lonsdale - If China Takes Taiwan, AI Sets Back 10 Years

Yeah, and it was complicated.

I think, listen, I think when Doge first started, I mean, I was there at Mar-a-Lago briefly with Elon and Vivek and others, and they were interviewing people to become the secretaries, right?

And I think there had to be a cultural change with how it worked with the agencies and worked with the leadership in ways they'd be OK with it.

It's not like it went away fully, right?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#302 Joe Lonsdale - If China Takes Taiwan, AI Sets Back 10 Years

All the cultures there are still in a lot of these places and going.

And I love that, listen, the president's put the vice president in charge of this, right?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#302 Joe Lonsdale - If China Takes Taiwan, AI Sets Back 10 Years

The Shawn Ryan Show
#302 Joe Lonsdale - If China Takes Taiwan, AI Sets Back 10 Years

He's working hard on it.

And a lot of the grift that comes from fraud, Sean, is how the Democratic Party funds its allies.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#302 Joe Lonsdale - If China Takes Taiwan, AI Sets Back 10 Years

This is just the truth.

The Shawn Ryan Show
#302 Joe Lonsdale - If China Takes Taiwan, AI Sets Back 10 Years

Oh, what?

The Shawn Ryan Show
#302 Joe Lonsdale - If China Takes Taiwan, AI Sets Back 10 Years

This is how the Democratic Party funds its friends and allies.
