I am fortunate to be able to spend 6-8weeks in Italy every summer. I work in Milan for 4-6 weeks and then take my summer vacation for 2-3 weeks. More importantly, I get to eat non American food sources for an extended period every year. And I always lose weight! Usually…

Tremendously proud that the first member of my generation to win on a national party ticket is Vice President-Elect JD Vance. Intellectual conservatism, vigorously pursued. A good harbinger of what the net contribution of millennials in national civic life will be.

Democrats spent $460M more on traditional ads than Republicans, yet still lost—highlighting a shift in how new media influences voters. Trump turned to alternative media—podcasts, Twitch, and influencers—to reach those disillusioned by mainstream media. adweek.it/4fgCrxs


The strategies that determine which campaign wins also shape which candidates run over time. TV prioritized visual and sound bites Long form pods prioritize candidates capable of having long detailed unscripted discussions


This was the Podcast election - long form authentic unscripted discussions with high trust influencers that persuaded voters. Pods will be a central part of every major campaign going forward.


Every presidential campaign cycle there is something that is done uniquely well by the winning campaign and becomes an exponentially larger part of the strategy for all candidates going forward. 2008 - campaign social media presence 2012 - sms / “big data” 2016 - direct…

Lessons of the election America is a center right country at heart. Only 25 per cent are liberal and the other 75 per cent won’t be ruled by the 25. Campaigns are about issues and serious proposals and positions and you can’t avoid having them. Demonizing opponents and using…

THANK YOU! To my beautiful wife for making it possible to do this. To President Donald J. Trump, for giving me such an opportunity to serve our country at this level. And to the American people, for their trust. I will never stop fighting for ALL of you.

It’s been only eight years since Hillbilly Elegy was published. There aren’t many analogues in American history for JD Vance’s rise to cultural influence and political power. Remarkable.

People are often surprised that we take design so seriously @anduriltech given the industry. No one has any idea who builds the platforms that have become part of our cultural language, which I think is crazy. Our warfighters deserve incredible UX and kit with provenance they…

Anduril’s design team is hiring. I often get asked, “What does a creative do in defense?” or “Why would you need designers?”

Airbnb just reached 2 billion guests. It took 14 years to get to our first billion and only 3 more years to reach the second. Thank you to everyone for giving us a chance.
