Stevenson’s army, December 16
This is not the worst of what the Russians are doing, but it is still terrible.
– GOP leader McCarthy has postponed votes on committee leaders until after the Jan 3 speaker election, further delaying organization, staffing, and hearings. – WSJ says Russia is wooing Uganda. – Semafor reports interagency fight over China restrictions. – International Crisis Group points to worse problems than Ukraine. – State is expanding China Desk to “China House.” – Senate approved huge NDAA, sending it to the president. Omnibus details won’t be revealed until Monday, ultimate passage likely — after political games. 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, with occasional videos of my choice. To get Stevenson’s army by email, send a blank email (no subject or text in the body) to stevensons-army+subscribe@googlegroups.com.
