This life is fucking amazing. I'm so grateful to be alive, with all of you on this miracle of a planet. Oh and I'm sorry if I fuck things up sometimes. I'm a flawed human. But I promise to do whatever I can to try to add some more understanding and love to this world. After the world leader convos I get attacked intensely by all sides, and many disparate online communities. It has led to some really low points for me mentally. But I don't matter. I'm listening. I'll do better. And I'll try to find the strength to do more of them, always with rigor and backbone, seeking to truly understand. And despite accusations, I do extremely high amounts of research, sometimes 100+ hours for a conversation. Ask many of my previous guests. But when I come to the table, I put all that aside, and make it all about the other person. I don't ever try to sound smart. I know the vastness of my ignorance. But I'm trying. Sometimes I do fuck up and sound like a douche, or do something incredibly cringe. And I hate myself right after. But I'd rather fail and embarrass myself a million times, than not do what my heart says is right. And besides world leaders, historians, CEOs, engineers, etc, this year I want to travel the world and talk to a lot more everyday people on and off the mic. This is something I've wanted to do for a long time. Anyway this is written while on I'm on a 10 mile run, probably procrastinating, since to type I have to walk and not run 🤣 But I did just get stopped by a super smart and kind girl who works at a humanoid robotics company here. And she asked if she can give me a hug to thank me for being me. Sometimes the universe sends you a message that even a dumb dude like me can almost hear. I really needed that today. Thank you for the hug and the kindness 🙏 I'm just hoping she was real and I didn't just imagine that 🤣 Then again if I went full crazy might as well enjoy it! Back to the run. I love you all! ❤️

It's Over. We just left the Federal Courthouse in Tampa. The California man who threatened the lives of my wife, my 4 children, and myself in explicit detail was just sentenced after pleading guilty: 11 months in federal prison. 2 years probation. Restraining order. Kate and I delivered victim statements to the court. The Judge did a profound job of reasoning through the sentencing and explaining the weight of rising political violence and its effect on our Constitutional freedoms. The Judge wanted this case to be a deterrence for others who would terrorize a family. That is why we’re sharing this today... George Isabell sent a letter to my house a week after Charlie was murdered, threatening to blow my head off in front of my family. This letter, compounded with a multitude of other physical threats at our doorstep had my wife terrified. Our kids were scared. We had to hire security. New cameras. Gates. We had police outside our house for months. My kids were forced to shelter inside out of fear for their safety. This is terrorism. This type of evil has no place in any civil society. Having a different opinion shouldn't put a target on your back. We thank the judge for ruling in favor of our God-given liberties. We thank you deeply for all the prayers and messages you've sent in support of our family. As a Christian, I encourage you all not to harbor hate. Choose forgiveness. We forgive this man. And we leave justice in the hands of righteous men to wield for the terror of evil men. "For the one in authority is God’s servant for your good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for rulers do not bear the sword for no reason." -- Romans 13

We wrapped our second annual #FordAccelerate# summit and it was an incredible day. We brought together 700+ leaders and voices from across business, government, skilled trades, education, and more at @MichiganCentral to talk about the people and industries that keep our country moving. We heard different perspectives, shared ideas, and had thoughtful conversations about where change is needed. To close the event, I shared these takeaways with attendees outlining what I think are the key actions we need to collectively tackle to address this challenge: 1. Design the whole path to a career. We need to reach students, parents and career changers with messages that speak to their aspirations — the earlier the better. We need to expand apprenticeships and high-quality training tied to employers’ needs so students have a job when they finish. Make it possible to finish: childcare, transportation, and the chance to earn money while they study. A training seat is a start. A good-paying career is the goal. 2. Break the silos. Incredible work is happening across this country, but we shouldn’t work in isolation. Employers, schools, unions, towns, cities, and philanthropy each hold part of the answer. We can each run a great program — and still leave someone stranded between us. We don’t all have the same job, but our work has to connect. 3. This is about our national security. We cannot compete against other nations if we don’t have a strong industrial base. It depends on people who know how to build, install, maintain and repair… We can’t separate our ambitions for national defense and economic security from the workforce needed to deliver them. Think about how we mobilized during World War II. Today's challenge is different, but we need that same shared sense of purpose and sustained commitment. 4. We need a blockbuster public service campaign. Think about these messages: "Only you can prevent forest fires." “Friends don’t let friends drive drunk.” They taught us an important lesson for the greater good. That’s the ambition of our Ad Council campaign coming next year. A message people remember and act on. 5. Make it personal. We all have our own connections to the skilled trades. Our first job, the second chance, the apprenticeship that changed someone’s future. Spotlight the skilled workers – and the teachers, mentors, others who helped them succeed. That’s a short list, but a lot of work. I’m encouraged by all who came ready to roll up their sleeves and help build a stronger #EssentialEconomy# for America’s future. Thank you to everyone who made this year’s summit such a meaningful one. I asked everyone who was there to send in a commitment for the next year. Then when we come back in 2027, we’ll be a lot further along. I’m proud of the progress we’ve made, but let’s come back even prouder next year. Let’s get to work!

thank you for the hundreds of support messages in my inbox - really appreciate it will get back to everyone over the coming days for those who think kaito is gg'ed i'd say this turn of events opens up a much bigger TAM for us to conquer onwards
