Stevenson’s army, September 2

• DOD’s annual report on China’s military power was released yesterday. Here’s a story. And here’s the report.
• NYT notes increased Russian military provocations around the globe.
  Facebook & Twitter say Russians are spreading election disinformation now.
• But ABC says DHS politicized an intelligence report about that.
• Senate Democrats consider changes to filibuster rules.
  [FYI, I  favor keeping the filibuster but making it rarer and harder to pursue.]
• Fred Kaplan says US military are far better than most police at crowd control.
• SAIS grad Robin DIckey has written a report on US policy toward space militarization.
