Stevenson’s army, December 17
Most of you know that I’m a print guy, enjoying broadsheet newspapers and wishing everyone read them. But I see online that the NYTimes has an amazing piece on Russia’s Ukraine war, with numerous videos and artifacts and photographs. I suppose the print version will run tomorrow. Don’t wait. View the online version now.
-Yahoo News has a summary of what little new there is in the just-declassified JFK files.
– And for a comprehensive end of year assessment of US foreign policy by FDD, described as a “hawkish think tank,” read this.
Charlie also added this to yesterday’s edition:
– Someone listed as N.S. Lyons does a frightening job of foreign policy papers using Chat GBT.-[h/t Andrew Sullivan]
– An official review seems happy with current joint command of CyberCom and NSA
– Vox reports military-industrial complex is happy with Ukraine.
