Well said

I can’t stop thinking about what is happening in Minneapolis & the rest of the country. No one should be killed. It doesn’t matter if you are a protestor or law enforcement. No parent or child should ever have to go through the pain that we’ve seen. Personally, I’m hurting seeing what is happening.

So much wisdom that Gen. McChrystal shares in our interview. Lessons he's learned the hard way. What character & patriotism means, being on the front lines as your enemy uses new technology, how that tech is going to impact all of us. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ACGa... @cwclub.bsky.social

It is irresponsible to play politics with the support of suicide counselors. People who are in a mental health crisis need support and we know how to support them www.axios.com/2025/06/18/t...

Given recent event in the world and politics, you're going to want to hear from General McChrystal. We have just a few seats left-- this Friday! @cwclub.bsky.social www.commonwealthclub.org/events/2025-...

This is why @djpatil.bsky.social pushed for an agenda of moving purposefully and fixing things.

I grew up in Utah and thanks to fluoride in the water + regular cleaning, I’ve never had a cavity. Thankful for the public health people who made the policy

I’m at @carnegiemellon.bsky.social today! Want to meet up or show something off? Meet at Tepper next to the coffee shop at 4pm

18F was doing exactly the type of work that DOGE claims to want – yet we were eliminated shortly after midnight. Read our letter to the American people: 18f.org

How can we use AI to transform America’s cities for the better? @goldsmithongov.bsky.social led a conversation with @djpatil.bsky.social & @mattmahansj.bsky.social on how AI can break barriers & enhance government services. "Technology alone is information, but it isn’t insight," Patil cautioned.

If you see me, ask me for a sticker!

I'm coming back to @ucsandiego on May 7th to give the DeWitt Higgs Lecture! Hope to see you there! Sign up here: warrenminors.ucsd.edu/law-and-soci...

I was in the room. Women serving in combat isn't some kind of DEI. It's well rooted in logic and Ash Carter saw that. Stephanie Carter knows better than anyone and read her take www.nytimes.com/2025/02/08/o...

When I’m trying to understand hard things I turn to @dahlialithwick.bsky.social

It’s a wrap on the final mission 🇺🇸 … for now

If you know someone who's lost a house in the LA fires--my friend Roger, whose house burned in the 1991 Oakland conflagration, wrote up a useful and compassionate piece, "What I Wish I Knew After My House Burned Down." Pass it along as needed.

Not to diminish the tribute, but this is something I've been looking for the media to do. Present the profile of a past Cabinet pick and then contrast/compare it with a past/real position holder. Here we have past Secretary of Defense Ash Carter

A true American hero — Ash Carter received the Presidential Medal of Freedom. That’s Stephanie Carter a personal hero of mine accepting the award. Here’s my take on why he was such a force of nature: lnkd.in/gGmniu54

Some work on reflections as we head into the new year

I kept changing my mind which Carter cartoon i should go with. Here's all three.

Guinea worm used to afflict 3.5 million people each year. This year, thanks in part to Jimmy Carter, there have been 7 cases. He negotiated the longest humanitarian cease-fire in history to distribute water filters & larvicides www.scientificamerican.com/article/jimm... via @tanyalewis.bsky.social

Nice shaker here in SF
