Stevenson’s army, January 6

Two years on we know what happened and who was responsible.

– Former CJCS Dunford and Harvard prof Graham Allison stress need for nonpartisan military.

– RAND analyst says we need to revise our war games to get useful results.

-WaPo says new cyber strategy has real teeth.

– TNSR article shows how hard it is to change military doctrine. [because of bureaucratic politics]

Hawley relents on DOD nominees after TikTok deal.

– Appropriators question USAF budget plans.

Corporations gave to election deniers, despite promises.

– Newsweek spreads rumors about Putin illness.

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.
