Reagan revered America as a “shining city on a hill” and ran for reelection in 1984 claiming it was “Morning in America.” Reagan would never say, as Trump just did, that “the American dream is dead” and that “our country is doing really badly.” bit.ly/3Tmka8O

.Daniel Immerwahr writes in The New Yorker: His “Reagan: His Life and Legend” (Norton) aims to be the definitive biography, and it succeeds. It’s a thoughtful, absorbing account. It’s also a surprising one. newyorker.com/magazine/2024/…

The UN calls ISIS “the greatest external terrorist threat” to Europe. The threat to the U.S. homeland is smaller but very real--as shown by the arrest in Canada on Friday of an alleged ISIS adherent who was plotting to attack a Jewish center in Brooklyn. wapo.st/3Tiw9nW

"Max Boot delivers a new biography of Ronald Reagan. While not as hagiographic as the new film, Boot’s take on the New Deal Democrat turned demonizer of Medicare & GOP icon is generally sympathetic. It’s Reagan the pragmatist & compromiser, say reviews." parade.com/books/best-rea…

“The differences in presidential policy are also stark: Reagan, Max Boot 🇺🇦🇺🇸 writes, “rejected the siren song of nativism.” He was for Puerto Rican statehood, boosted free trade and saw America as an unalloyed force for good in the world.” nytimes.com/2024/09/09/boo…
