Otherwise, you’ll never get done – or worse, you’ll get done poorly. The thing is, time is every bit as finite, measurable, and valuable as money – maybe even more so because, unlike cash, you can’t request more when it runs out.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social hired former FTC Chair Lina Khan to run his transition team. She's an excellent pick with an eye for rooting out how big corporations are making your life unaffordable. One way they're doing that? Surveillance pricing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-cbtUYshYM8

Authoritarian regimes fall when people stop cooperating. To weaken Trump’s regime, we must support whistleblowers, protect defectors, and give grace to anyone breaking from MAGA. That’s not naïve, it’s strategy. The more people we pull out of the orbit, the faster the regime collapses.🇺🇸

To do any good, governance metrics must be regularly viewable by managers and readily digestible by executives and regulators. This means focusing on dashboarding and auditing – the very subjects of our IG Community Roundtable on Nov 19. Register here! >

GRC programs live and die on the strength of their supporting information. If it's poor, we're limiting our effectiveness from the start.

Shameful doesn’t begin to cover it
When Trump wants to pardon a drug trafficker, befriend a terrorist, or praise a dictator because they did something to benefit him personally, when confronted with their past crimes he always either minimizes them or claims that they were treated unfairly. While Republicans just go along with it.

Wanted: AI of Practical Value
