Stevenson’s army, May 29
-The Lugar Center rates congressional committees on their degree of oversight. The measure is quantitative rather than qualitative, but still interesting. Notable to me is the low ratings given the foreign policy committees and the disparate rankings of the appropriations panels.
– President Trump said yesterday he would be making a major statement on China today. BOLO.
-UK might give Hong Kongers born before 1997 transfer pathway to UK citizenship.
– FT says Gazprom has won out over US sanctions on NordStream2.
-Prof. Karlin and Alice Friend of CSIS have excellent piece on how civilians should give guidance to the military.
