Stevenson’s army, July 18
– What are federal agents doing on the streets of Portland? Is it “Barr’s Gestapo”? A law prof raises important questions.
– Politico says the administration is evading Congress in some new DOD appointments.
– Despite last year’s law blocking cuts, administration has plans to cut US forces in Korea.
– Everybody does it: WHO is hiring US public relations firms.
– Biden says he is now receiving the classified intelligence briefings traditionally given to major party nominees.
– Simon Kuper of FT calls for some US introspection.
My SAIS colleague Charlie Stevenson distributes this almost daily news digest of foreign/defense/national security policy to “Stevenson’s army” via Googlegroups. I plan to republish here. To get Stevenson’s army by email, send a blank email (no subject or text in the body) to stevensons-army+subscribe@googlegroups.com. You’ll get an email confirming your join request. Click “Join This Group” and follow the instructions to join. Once you have joined, you can adjust your email delivery preferences (if you want every email or a digest of the emails).
Share this, I'll really appreciate it:

How can we be certain that the current use of federal “little green men” in Portland to quell largely peaceful protest, against the express wishes of local and state officials, is not a pilot test for a “national emergency” on 3 November that would interrupt or restrict voting nationwide in the federal election?

How indeed.
