NEW: U.S. lawmakers have asked the White House to punish South Africa because of intelligence suggesting that South Africa provided arms to Russia for the Ukraine war. They are asking the administration to move an important trade forum out of South Africa. nytimes.com/2023/06/12/wor…

In 1990, I was at a protest in front of the White House and I asked someone what the Gulf of Tonkin was. It was Daniel Ellsberg. He schooled me and went on to become an active member of Marc Raskin's national security seminar at GWU. Rest in Power. washingtonpost.com/obituaries/202…

H.E. Guoni Th. Johannesson, President of #Iceland at CES #CES2023 - humor is necessary in political discourse. Humor is fine when you make fun of people in power. It's a sign of confidence. It's very different when your jokes target those who can't defend themselves.

We are everywhere! Great to see AU School of International Service SIS PhD Program alumna Ela Rosmiller here at #CES2023 CES in #Iceland. Lots of debates here on populism and its links to authoritarianism, especially in Poland.

OK. Let's be honest. Who is thinking about leaving Twitter for Threads? And who is planning on just trying to do both, on top of all the other media?
