Stevenson’s army, May 3

Politico reports a draft Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade and calling it egregiously decided.

– Slate shows how many different people had plausible motives for the unprecedented leak.

– NYT notes Justice Gorsuch wants to overturn the precedent of the Insular Cases.

– WaPo says US intelligence expects Russia to annex captured areas. Perhaps this is the May 9 Victory Day plan.

Hungary and Slovakia oppose ban on importing Russian oil.

– WSJ says China is mentioned in 11% of current congressional campaign ads.

– In FP, Angela Stent notes limited support for Ukraine outside Europe.

My SAIS colleague Charlie Stevenson distributes this almost daily news digest of foreign/defense/national security policy to “Stevenson’s army” via Googlegroups. I republish here.
