Stevenson’s army, February 23

– Spencer Ackerman says administration is reviewing drone and counter-terror operations.

– Pew says 1/4 of Democrats and GOP get their news only from partisan news  bubbles.
– In week 6, you will play roles seeking policies to offset  economic & technological aspects of the rise of China. Axios says the Biden people are doing the same already.
-Brookings author says Trump in effect amended the Constitution in 5 significant ways.
– Newly analyzed archives show that starting around 1907, the Army assigned black Buffalo Soldiers to West Point to teach cadets horsemanship.

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).
