I remain committed to nation-building as one of the fundamentals of global national security and prosperity. My book makes the case through my touches with failed and fragile states on three continents. Use 6AS20 for a 40% discount.

D-Day commemoration, Omaha Beach, June 6 2024

Zelensky arrived, the crowd applauded. And then this happened:

🇺🇸 veteran: You’re a saviour of the people

Zelensky: No, no, you saved Europe

🇺🇸 veteran: My hero

Zelensky: No, you are our hero

🇺🇸🇫🇷🇺🇦

Haiti Needs a Much Larger Army
My latest op-ed for the Miami Herald. Haiti needs a "hold and build" force to follow the Gang Suppression Force what will help "clear." A larger Army makes the most sense.

@ASCOA Excellent choice. Congrats

@MarkFeierstein Wow, what a mess, on process and on legality and on morality. When vindictivness is the policy and incompetence a much sought after quality for public officials this is what you get. Bring back government.

Delusional and unhinged doesn't begin to capture this moment.

Holy shit. Trump just learned Wall Street is calling his tariffs “TACO trade” (“Trump Always Chickens Out”) — and you have to watch his meltdown.

A rare fresh (and very good) idea. Check it out.

“Security forces across the Americas are beginning to recognize that the scale of the challenge demands close cross-border cooperation,” @anajanaina and I wrote in @AmerQuarterly. This year’s Summit of the Americas offers “a valuable opportunity to discuss an ambitious regional security initiative.”

@leoknyc777 @SecRubio Horrible situation. 500 years of the evolution of the rule of law now shredded in an instant.

[Leslie Voltaire @leslievoltaire]

The continued misrepresentation of Haitian immigrants is deeply troubling and concerning. Recent accusations that Haitians in Springfield are consuming pets and local wildlife are not only completely unfounded but also unacceptable. This rhetoric unfairly targets a community that has always contributed significantly to American society through hard work. Such narratives risk dividing and endangering already vulnerable communities. It's crucial to promote unity, mutual respect, and the longstanding historic partnership between the United States and Haiti.
