The Lawfare Podcast: Congressman Jim Himes on the Intelligence Development Race

This month, the Home Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence’s Subcommittee on Strategic Technologies and Advanced Research released a report entitled, “Appropriately Scaled, Carefully Open, Infinitely Agile: Reconfiguring to Win the Development Race in the Intelligence Neighborhood.” Susan Hennessey took a seat with Subcommittee Chair Congressman Jim Himes of Connecticut to discuss the challenges the United States is confronting with near-peer nationwide rivals in science and technology and the effect on the intelligence neighborhood. They spoke about the function of China, stemming intelligence community brain drain, the need for basic research study and how Congress can heal itself to end up being part of the option.
