Many thanks, War on the Rocks this is great company to be in (except for Phil Klay, that guy couldn’t write his way out of a paper bag).

All who deal in natl/intl security. Pls take a few min to take this survey from ⁦War on the Rocks⁩ & ⁦Ryan Evans⁩ They’re up to something exciting and interesting & are especially interested in early and mid-career respondents. survey.alchemer.com/s3/6409540/Cur…

The Pentagon currently is on lock down due to an incident at the Pentagon Transit Center. We are asking the public to please avoid the area. More information will be forthcoming.

Good to be part of this conversation with Dan Murphy CNBC International

Literally the epitome of a brilliant, selfless public servant. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth & Deputy Secretary of Defense are incredibly lucky to have her on their team.

+1 Dr. Mehmet Oz & Serve America Together know what it means to heal divides by rolling up our sleeves & doing the hard work of citizenship.

Expanding the Conception of National Security "U.S. policy makers misread the threat if they narrowly focus on hardware, hard power, and traditional military might." usni.org/magazines/proc…

U.S. national security can no longer be defined predominantly in hard-power terms. Strategic competition with Russia and China is playing out aggressively in other domains. ow.ly/Mssu50Gs5hs

Today we have the privilege of voting for those who will represent us. I’m worried that we have lost faith in this institution of our elections, and it’s one of the reasons I’m spending the day serving as an election official. Citizenship isn’t a spectator sport. @VettheVote

I will so miss Michael Gerson's company (his columns that made me a more tolerant & grace-filled person). “Even when strength fails, there is perseverance, & when perseverance fails, there is hope. & when hope fails, there is love. And love never fails.” washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/…

More tributes to the good Michael Gerson: “This world He created is of moral design. Grief and tragedy and hatred are only for a time. Goodness, remembrance, and love have no end. And the Lord of life holds all who die, and all who mourn.” cms.bushcenter.org/newsroom/state…

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський met with Senator Jack Reed and Senator Angus King from the US. He thanked them for all the support Ukraine receives from the United States. We are grateful to our Ally for bringing our Victory closer!
