Patrick BoyleHOST
Around the world, Chinese companies are, whether fairly or not, viewed as instruments of the Chinese government.
Patrick BoyleHOST
Mark Kennedy of the Wilson Center, a nonpartisan think tank, points out that the Chinese government has laws in place that allow the government to access information held by its citizens and corporations.
Patrick BoyleHOST
That ability by the government to gain access to information is one of the reasons why people view the risk of dealing with a Chinese corporation similar to what they would view as the risk of dealing with the Chinese Communist Party or the government directly, according to Kennedy.
Patrick BoyleHOST
Last year a Chinese company bought land near an Air Force base in North Dakota causing uproar.
Andrew NatsiosGUEST
You know, they gutted the State Department and they tried to shut down USIP.
Andrew NatsiosGUEST
They walked into the Woodrow Wilson Center, which is part of the Smithsonian, tried to shut that down.
Andrew NatsiosGUEST
And so it wasn't just AID.
Andrew NatsiosGUEST
The damaged AID was the most severe, of course.
Joshua LaneHOST
Stolberg is also linked to pharma.
Joshua LaneHOST
In 2024-2025, she was a public policy fellow for the Wilson Center.
Joshua LaneHOST
Established by the U.S. Congress in 1968, the Wilson Center received substantial federal funding.
Joshua LaneHOST
However, some of its funding has come from drug makers, including Gilead, Merck, and Pfizer, and pharmaceutical industry lobbying group PHRMA.
Joshua LaneHOST
Big tech firms, including Amazon, Facebook, Google, and Microsoft, who help censor content critical of the vaccines and pandemic-related policies, have also funded the Wilson Center.
Joshua LaneHOST
So, ladies and gentlemen, we see that the fight is on and the pharmaceutical industry is a very powerful group and possibly they will prevail here.
Joshua LaneHOST
Hard to predict the future.
Laura DawsonGUEST
Sure.
Laura DawsonGUEST
So doing that trajectory of me working at the embassy, understanding more of how Americans see Canadians and really investing more of myself into that relationship, I got offered a job to run the Canada Institute at the Woodrow Wilson Centre in Washington.
Laura DawsonGUEST
And it was an amazing opportunity because I was a Canadian that was being offered a green card to work at a US government entity.
Laura DawsonGUEST
How weird is that? You can't do that now.

John P. MiltonGUEST
I'm really more of an experiential kind of person than a scholar.
John P. MiltonGUEST
although I was at a place called the Woodrow Wilson Center for Scholars.
John P. MiltonGUEST
But my main focus is experiential.
John P. MiltonGUEST
And I think that being put out on a vision quest at such a young age was a huge support for bonding with nature and connecting to the natural energies of nature and the natural flows of energy that all of life participates in along with us.
Sharon WeinbergerGUEST
I began looking, I mean, I essentially began looking at them as far back as 2004 when I was looking at the Hafnian bomb.
Sharon WeinbergerGUEST
But I was offered a nine month fellowship at the Wilson Center, which was doged, still sort of exists and is doing some things, but not quite what it was.
Sharon WeinbergerGUEST
And that allowed me to do nine months of research, really interviewing, I mean, In the end, I mean well over 100 people who had worked at or for or with DARPA.
Sharon WeinbergerGUEST
I'd also discovered, I mean one of the best discoveries I made was how much had been declassified of DARPA's records in the National Archives.

Clara ApolloHOST
Seven years old vision quest.
Stephen HenleyHOST
Mm-hmm

George WeigelGUEST
I had the greatest office in Washington for a year.
Stephen HenleyHOST
Yeah.
