My book is out! . It is about emerging technology, the future of warfare, the erosion of U.S. military dominance, how to reimagine our national defense, and how the political system we have can produce the new military we need. Please pick up a copy:.

I’d like to believe that somewhere beyond space and time, my old boss, John McCain, watched his old friend Joe Biden deliver that beautiful tribute to the idea of America and his call to unity and duty with a smiling face, misty eyes & a hopeful heart. God Bless President Biden.

Very excited to join this event with @ACScowcroft! Please tune in at 2:30 EST.
The US has the world’s most powerful military, but its assets could be attractive targets for asymmetric attacks. Join Forward Defense for a panel discussion about using technology to confront this reality @cdbrose @micheleflournoy @IgnatiusPost.

That’s it, in one tweet 👇.
.@jaketapper the implications of who knew what/when on the Russia bounty intel are concerning: if the IC didn’t brief the White House, that’s a problem. If the NSC had it & didn’t brief it, that’s also a problem. If the White House was briefed & didn’t act, that's unconscionable.

The administration said the move will give US workers access to an additional 525,000 jobs. But sectors with lots of H-1B visas tend to have low unemployment.

In our current competition with China, this is the strategic equivalent of benching our star athlete.
President Trump will freeze green cards for new immigrants and sign an executive order to suspend H-1B, L-1, J and other temporary work visas for skilled workers, managers and au pairs through the end of the year.

Katie Wheelbarger & Elaine McCusker are two of the finest, most dedicated public servants I've ever worked with. They're also women. They should have been retained & promoted, not driven out of government. This was a pass/fail test. The White House failed.

A must read from Lt. Gen. Vincent Stewart (USMC, Ret.):. “The horrifying image of an officer placing his knee on the neck of George Floyd on May 25 has seized my every thought and action since, and has convinced me that I can no longer be silent.”.

What to rename US military bases named after Confederate soldiers? In the course of US history, 89 black Americans have received the Medal of Honor. One man, Robert Augustus Sweeney (a sailor), received it twice. That group of heroes would be a pretty good place to start.
Who are some underrated military commanders in US history that deserve more bases named after them? My votes are Ridgeway & OP Smith from Korea, Truscott & Spruance from WWII, Joshua Chamberlain from Civil War, and Nathaniel Greene from Revolutionary War.

It’s never too late to say and do the right thing. Thank you, Gen. Milley. @thejointstaff.

Way to go @SASCMajority @SASCDems! I worked on SASC for a decade and know about how defense bills become laws. Mark my words: this provision on Confederate-named military bases will become law, whether Trump signs it or not. John McCain would be proud!.

The Senate Armed Services Committee voted to require the Pentagon to rename military bases and other assets named after Confederate generals.

A passionate, empathetic, revealing, & moving reflection on race in America as seen through a life spent within both black & white society. Sharing, listening to, and being changed by stories like this is how we become better. Take time to read it. 👏👏👏

This is a remarkable statement about race, our military, and our country. It is more remarkable because it is being said by a four-star general and the next Air Force Chief of Staff. It even more remarkable because Gen. CQ Brown is African-American. Well done, sir.
"As the Commander of Pacific Air Forces, a senior leader in our Air Force, and an African-American, many of you may be wondering what I’m thinking about the current events surrounding the tragic death of George Floyd. Here’s what I’m thinking about. " - Gen. CQ Brown, Jr.
