Stevenson’s army, March 7

– Why are centrists losing?
– Why are Latino men trending Republican?
– Is now like the politics of the Gilded Age, when parties were strong but identity-based rather than class based? [I was shocked to learn that in the elections of 1880 and 1888 turnout was over 80%]
– NYT discovers that US stockpile was short of masks and ventilators because officials prioritized anthrax vaccine in response to clever lobbying.

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).
