Tomorrow I'll be giving an online talk on the potential impact of a second Trump presidency in both the US and the world. 7AM EST

@JohnnyT3ars @GrandpaDennisP What about the Presidential Transition Enhancement Act of 2019, signed into law by President Trump in 2020? It mandates that presidential candidates sign the Ethics Pledge prior to the election and sets the deadline of October 1. That's not full of shit.

@RightAngle1776 @GrandpaDennisP What about the Presidential Transition Enhancement Act of 2019, signed into law by President Trump in 2020, which mandates the signing of the Ethics Pledge PRIOR to assuming office? This act spells it out and sets the deadline, which is actually prior to the election.

A recent trip to the US Capitol with my class. A great semester to be teaching US Government! Lots of things going on! @bauintdc

How will a Harris vs. Trump White House differ in terms of foreign policy? Have a look at my recent comments on @StraitTalkTRT

@MedBennett @SirBylHolte Michigan, according to what you posted, had at that stage only 59% of the districts reporting. Are you suggesting that the other 41% of districts should not have had their votes counted because the polls closed?

[Sean Michael Cox, Ph.D. @seanmcist]

@MedBennett @SirBylHolte I don't understand this meme you posted. It indicates when the polls closed and not when the vote counting stopped. If you look in the lower right hand corner, you can see the percentage of votes counted as reported by district.

The last @NMADmuseum diplomatic simulation for my Diplomatic History class this semester. Thankful to NMAD for providing such great material! An interesting, although problematic and flawed, solution to a refugee crisis scenario @bauintdc

[Sean Michael Cox, Ph.D. @seanmcist]

Thanks @NMADmuseum and Dr. Alison Mann for the wonderful visit! My students had a great time and learned a lot about both the historic and contemporary practice of diplomacy. @bauintdc

My contribution to the discussion about Turkish-US relations and the status of the "Strategic Mechanism." Thanks @StraitTalkTRT for the forum!

My Diplomatic History class was treated to a talk by former Egyptian Ambassador Dr. Hamdi Saleh. That's what's great about studying in DC, access to people who have knowledge and experience in international relations and governance. @bauintdc

Class visit to the Victims of Communism Museum. Some powerful information and imagery. @bauintdc

[Sean Michael Cox, Ph.D. @seanmcist]

My Diplomatic History class attempting to resolve the latest @NMADmuseum simulation challenge - the '56 Suez Canal Crisis. As you can see, some parties were playing hard ball! @bauintdc

[Sean Michael Cox, Ph.D. @seanmcist]

Conducted the first simulation exercise in my Diplomatic History class. Thanks @NMADmuseum for the materials. The outcome of the Barbary Pirate Hostage Crisis of 1794 was quite different from actual history! @bauintdc

A trip to the Organization of American States with my students today. @bauintdc
