Exciting to see the work of the CGI community and the passionate commitments made to bettering the world through partnerships.

[Jim Thompson @JimTThompson]

Great to have @cgiar Chief Science Officer, Sandra Cristina Kothe Milach, here laying out the issues on food security.

Great kickoff to the day talking about the state of food security today.

Sabine reminds us that #philanthropy has millions, governments have billions, and private sector, trillions. It's important to work together.

How is MSNBC not covering this??

[Susan Rice @AmbassadorRice]

This is literally superpower suicide.

These are some of the most talented public servants doing critical work.

Champagne corks are popping in Beijing and Moscow after they already emptied the wine cellars celebrating the end of USAID.

[Jim Thompson @JimTThompson]

It is Public Service Recognition Week! As we honor our nation's 23+ million public servants, let's recognize that behind every government function are dedicated professionals making a difference. Join the conversation with #PSRW2025. #scientists

Today's OMB memo on AI in agencies is a good read.

Removing bottlenecks, strategic planning and AI leadership makes good sense.

To my national security colleagues and friends, we have an opportunity to reshape the NSC interagency process. The existing consensus driven process eliminates the potential for decisions to reach the President. It is time to examine the process & explore alternatives.

Let me here your thoughts! Please tag colleagues.

@FAS will convene a discussion on this paper in February and we welcome your participation.
