Congrats to my friend and former boss Ajit Pai on being named the next President and CEO of CTIA! I could not think of anyone better to lead the charge for promoting innovation and investment in American wireless networks.

RIP George Foreman. I remember watching him recapture the heavyweight title at age 45 in my grandpa’s basement. Also his Meineke ads (“you’re going to get a lot for your muffler. I guarantee it.”) Condolences to his family, including all five sons George.

Congrats to 2018 JW Fellow Aaron Reitz on his Senate confirmation today! Aaron will be Assistant Attorney General and head of Office of Legal Policy at the Department of Justice.

Congrats to Joel Thayer on his appointment to be Chief of Staff to Commissioner Mark Meador! Meador and Thayer are the perfect combo to assist Chairman Andrew Ferguson in driving competition and tech policy under President Trump.

Great to see Judge Paul Matey getting recognition recently from Oren Cass and others. Enjoyed hosting him for the St. Thomas More Society a couple months ago. He is one of the most original and creative legal minds on the bench today.

Only this week my four year old daughter started asking us to play "Surfin' USA" on repeat in our car after hearing it at a school recital. RIP to a musical genius.

Proud that all my kids have had a proper Sicilian response to their first lemon 🍋

Happy Father’s Day to all the Dads! Here’s a photo of the family patriarch John Johnson, stevedore, his wife Marie, and six surviving kids (a seventh died in infancy), from 1919. Absolute boss.

Congrats to Commissioner Trusty! Great to see the FCC have a working majority to deliver more great results for the American people. Can’t wait to see what’s on tap. Let’s go!!!
