    I wish I could disagree with this commentary but I can’t. When one party—the GOp—actively supports nonsensical policies that place their own supporters at grave risk and sees national failure as the only route to power, we have entered extremely dangerous political territory.

    The Most Important Statistic of the Biden Presidency. My new column is up (after a brief book-writing break) is up :

    Good morning. The home of the United States government this morning had security fencing thrown up around it, in preparation for another far-right rally, because our government, media, civic orgs failed to have real accountability for those who helped cause the last violent one.

    "It’s not that dissenting voices on foreign policy go completely unheard but that the illusion of consensus the Blob has formed looms so large that dissenters are easily marginalized or ignored."

    This. As clear an example as you will find of killing an already done appointment over the candidate’s political views. Shame on

    This is how it happened. First, an email to the CIJA. "The hope is that through quiet discussion, top officials will realize that this appointment is academically unworthy, and that a public protest campaign will do major damage to the university in fundraising."

    Diversity of opinion strengthens US foreign policy; rank partisanship weakens it.

    Hawley says he won’t consent to DoD or State noms until blinken, Austin and Sullivan resign.

    If we can spend $8 trillion on the war on terror, we can spend $3.5 on rebuilding our own country. There’s no rational argument against this, it’s just politics.

    Rep. Lauren Boebert declares that Christians must rise up and remove ungodly leaders from power and replace them with "righteous men and women of God" who realize that the government should be taking orders from the church.

    COVID Update: Watching the reactions & meltdowns to the proposal that Americans are required to get vaccinated (or tested) to be around others. There is so little actually controversial here but the sideshow is first rate. 1/

    The big takeaway here is that there are basically ZERO reasons to not get vaccinated. Vaccine-reaction experts I spoke to couldn't think of a single contraindication to both the mRNA or J&J. "Medical exemptions," to them, are basically not real.

    The GOP must be SO proud.

    The US is no longer just the most politically divided and economically unequal of the G7 democracies. It’s also now the least vaccinated.

    Plenty of wisdom in this Defense Priorities symposium on Afghanistan; glad to have been included despite the depressing nature of the subject.

    tweet of the day. i remember the many fears.

    Smallpox was not yet eradicated when I was a boy. Polio was dreaded. Measles, chicken pox, mumps & other diseases were part of life. And they would be with us in the U.S. now if the resistance to vaccines by today's lunkheads had been prevalent back then.

    I suspect vaccine hesitancy and anti-mask vigilantes will have a greater negative impact on America’s reputation than the Afghanistan withdrawal, both by slowing economic recovery and making the US look like a nation in disarray and denial.

    When was the last time you "Remembered the MAINE?" In this week's column, I speculate on how 9/11 may be remembered a century from now. Short version: it depends on what we (and others) do between now and then.
