LOL,,,,,stronger on foreign policy.......who is he kidding? Why don't you ask the men and women in the field, or better yet ask those who are in private security (yeah the real ones) around the globe. Let them stand at the podium and I assure you , their take on this whole world issue of security etc will be quite different. This administration and its cronies continue to live in delusion, deception, etc. Yup, scripture is spot on, in the End Times, delusion and where lies become truth abounds. These inept ones are living proof of it........................... 👇 PS: For would be lawyers, this is a lesson of where the witness evades answering the question. See, there's a lesson in everything.

In times of crisis, the Federalist paradigm has led to the development of original solutions to problems of domestic balances and global politics, as highlighted by Hamilton, Jay, and Madison in the Federalist Papers, and in Clarence Streit's Union Now. In this series of three articles, our research fellow Sofia Eliodori proposes an analysis of Federalism as a tool for foreign policy. Federalism affects foreign policy at many levels as it creates a bridge between the internal and external dimensions of political power balances, uniting domestic governance and Global Diplomacy. The analysis will look at the multidimensionality of the federal paradigm, emphasizing in particular how it affects two conceptual pairs: one that sees Citizen Participation on one side and Public Diplomacy on the other; the other that combines Sovereignty and Global Governance. https://lnkd.in/g2xic76j

Going through the most recent Foreign Affairs Magazine, I was disappointed, but not surprised, to see #LatinAmerica barely gets mentioned when it comes to US foreign policy priorities. This tells me two things: 1. The US continues to see Latin American overall as a 'problem child' and not a real partner with numerous economic and commercial opportunities. This must change. (And then the US wonders why Latin America continues to expand and accept China's incursion in the region). 2. Latin American countries also need to be more effective in managing internal affairs and continue to make necessary changes to become reliable partners in their rule of law, anti-corruption, and regulatory frameworks.

On Ch. 1, Hoover Institution Senior Fellow, Russell Berman, delves into the multifaceted nature of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, highlighting the difficulties in pursuing American interests while navigating regional complexities and competing global powers. These regional complexities and competing powers necessitate the need for the U.S. to adapt its strategies in response to evolving realities such as the growing influences of China and Russia. In light of all the current uncertainty and challenges, there is still room for ambitious and effective U.S. foreign policy in the region. Watch now: https://lnkd.in/gxGrTv5J
