Didactic Dow Jones & the Realism of Leading
I’ve grown frustrated by the WSJ editorial boards tone deaf posture regarding international trade. The editorial board continues to sound didactic and worse yet, academic in its understanding on US trade. It reminds me of why Sam Rayburn (President Johnson’s … Continue reading

Putin’s Next Move
Putin’s next move is easy. Split any/all coalition that U.S. seeks to develop. This has already been done with Germanic/Polish perfidity. If the U.S. doesn’t any unilaterally, then it should seek to punish Putin with long term diplomatic, economic consequences. … Continue reading
