CSIS hosted The Future of U.S. Counterterrorism event and it was excellent. The conversation on current CT topics featuring two representatives from Congress, Michael Waltz (R-FL) the first Green Beret elected to Congress / House Armed Services Committee / Former roles at the Pentagon and Senior Advisor to VP Dick Cheney for counterterrorism, Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) House Foreign Affairs Committee / Former CIA operations officer, and moderated by Seth Jones, Harold Brown Chair, Director Transnational Threats Project, Senior Advisor, International Security Program. What a great discussion. The representatives agreed, disagreed, debated and discussed the current threats and the current state of U.S. CT. and covered a lot of relevant information in an hour. Time for Q&A was limited but I was able to sneak in a question afterwards as everyone was leaving. Water, orange juice, coffee and other refreshments were offered (self-service) outside the even room, and the event was even live streamed online for those who could not attend in person. Another excellent event at CSIS headquarters!
