    I share @DCIARatcliffe's commitment to transparency and analytic objectivity at @CIA. Adherence to analytic processes and rigorous tradecraft is essential to producing the sound analysis our leaders rely on to keep our Nation safe.

    Thanks @APompliano for having me on the podcast to talk about @POTUS’s first 100 days in office. We had a great time discussing @CIA’s efforts on China, technology, and counternarcotics…plus a little crypto too!
