After Hawaii barred government contractors from donating to political campaigns, late-night fund-raising parties showed just how completely the reform effort failed, a New York Times investigation found. https://t.co/IJP6rcpq3S

As a bipolar or multipolar world order takes shape, Latin America is finding itself squarely on the sidelines, write @WillGFreeman and @RyanBergPhD. What can explain the region’s drift to the margins?

I can think of no faster way to push Latin America into China's arms than by invading Mexico.

But that idea, plus a bid to revive the Monroe Doctrine, has gone mainstream among GOP primary candidates.

My latest for CFR on why it's all so dangerous.

The Maui fire that tore through Lahaina is one of the worst wildfire disasters in US history.

The town of 12,000 people is virtually destroyed, with at least 53 dead and many more missing. More than 1,700 structures have been destroyed, including entire neighborhoods.

Maui is in great need of outside assistance.

Movies and shows about the U.S. military or CIA are a dime a dozen. The State Department? Not so much.

I'm proud to publish this joint op-ed in @USATODAYopinion with @RepJudyChu. Competing globally is important, but so too is confronting hate and bias that may emerge.

Our country is at its best when we rise above division and embrace our diversity. https://t.co/i8b7ZQVBIf

In a world where Black and Asian women constitute the world’s majority—they are only “minorities” within the borders of the United States—at a time when Hollywood is an even more global industry, this fact is unacceptable and inexcusable👇🏽

Earthquakes are always said to be “natural” disasters. It’s a misleading term. The real disaster is man-made, in the form of poorly constructed homes and buildings followed by incompetent crisis management in the aftermath of the catastrophe https://t.co/9BM5R6UJNr

Another North American Leaders Summit, another round of lofty goals set, as other big challenges keep popping up.

But even if 🇨🇦🇲🇽🇺🇸can't cross everything off their task list, getting together gets them closer.

After being bombarded with sports betting ads, I started wondering about the explosion of sports betting.

My @nytimes colleagues & I decided to investigate.

Today, we are publishing several stories on the fastest expansion of gambling in US history. https://t.co/egjMqPncVS

The past two weeks suggest that even with leftist leaders occupying presidential palaces in the vast majority of countries in Latin America, broader policy coordination and regional integration will not come easily. https://t.co/9z0TWbvozv via @amerquarterly

[NBA on ESPN @ESPNNBA]

An NBA team in Mexico City? @MarcJSpears says expansion is a real option 👀

"Move to the side Las Vegas. Move to the side Seattle. Mexico City ... is a legit contender when the NBA talks expansion."
