I hate to say this, but it looks like the damaged boats were new display boats, so no fisherman is going crazy trying to figure out what he's going to be fishing in next season. Of course the owner is out of some serious inventory, but at least nobody is "bonded" to a particular boat...

Marc Andreessen Describes "Alarming" Meeting With Biden Admin That Prompted His Trump Endorsement​

Marc Andreessen, the billionaire investor and co-founder of the influential Silicon Valley venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, revealed in a new episode of Joe Rogan's podcast that after an "alarming" meeting with Biden administration officials earlier this year was the moment he would have no other choice but to support Donald Trump.
For decades, Andreessen has supported Democrats, including Bill Clinton, Al Gore, John Kerry, Barack Obama, and Hillary Clinton. However, a troubling spring meeting with Biden administration officials caused major concerns. During the meeting, officials explained their plan to control AI through government regulatory capture—a strategy reminiscent of Communist policies in China.
"We had meetings [Biden officials] this spring that were the most alarming meetings I've ever been in. Where they were taking us through their plans, and it was - basically just full government - full government control - like this sort of thing, there will be a small number of large companies that will be completely regulated and controlled by the government, they told us. They said don't even start startups - there's just no way that they can succeed - there's no way that we're going to permit that to happen."

In mid-July, Axios reported that Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz had donated to President-elect Trump's campaign. At the time, their support was attributed to Trump's pro stance on crypto and AI regulation. It's another telling example of just how far-left Democrats in the White House spooked Silicon Valley heavy hitters, such as Elon Musk.
Back to the podcast, Rogan asked Andreessen: "When you leave a meeting like that, what do you do?"
Andreessen responded: "You endorse Donald Trump."

Andreessen told Rogan about the federal government's rogue "Operation Choke Point." He described it as a move by the Department of Justice that initially targeted marijuana businesses and gun manufacturers. He said under Biden, it was then weaponized to destroy political opponents, tech founders, and the crypto community.

30 tech founders were secretly debanked.

Rogan and Andreessen discussed the government workforce dilemma.
The government workforce has been exposed:

• Half never returned to the office after COVID.
• Some show up just one day a month.
• Yet, they still collect full DC-level salaries. pic.twitter.com/MCzNZJIC6x

Andreessen spoke about Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy's newly created Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) and how they may have devised a plan to reduce the government workforce.
However, @elonmusk and @DOGE might have the solution:

They spoke about national security threats.
Our national security is hanging by a thread:

• 90% of US military drones are Chinese-made.
• FAA regulations wiped out American manufacturers.

Each drone has the potential to be a weapon—or a spy platform. pic.twitter.com/tldx5xuVOJ

The Make America Healthy Again movement.
They’ve already tested this level of control on our food system:

• The USDA promoted high fructose corn syrup everywhere.
• Created the infamous upside-down food pyramid.

Now, they’re aiming for the same dominance over tech. pic.twitter.com/bIYzapFJCw
