The original title for the column was : NEEDED LEADERSHIP AND NOT BULLSHIP. But I guess it was too spicy. So make do with: Political bipartisanship suffers as Trump cows GOP members of Congress https://t.co/jBSzPd1ek7 via @upi

Be very careful about the UKdefense dividend. It may not stimulate the economy as promised. And it may not deal with main threat from Russia: disruption and disinformation and not war https://t.co/dRgf1T7x8r

If there is no firm US ceasefire agreement with the Houthis, a further showdown in Yemen is inevitable. And like June 1914 and the ArchDuke's murder, could the Houthis catalyze a regional war? https://t.co/0tOe9btUUy via @upi

In cutting four star flag officers, at the end of WW II we had 34 not as Pete Hegseth said that it was seven who won the war. Today we have 37 four star flags. The fairer question should be do we need about the same number of 4 stars with a military 1/10 the size of WW II's?

The UK is mirroring US despair over what to do about Trump  and that may be British understatement!!! https://t.co/tWSmnaZ2Zg

Trump could be a great president. But one major flaw is that he has convinced himself that his delusions are reality as he now says he needs to run the world as well as the US. Hyperbole or joke does not matter https://t.co/QkXndYaUPw

Distrust of Congress and the Media is far from new. Fifty years ago, students at the National War College, as the Vietnam War was ending, cited as the two greatest threats to the nation: Congress and the media. And that persisted in susequent classes. History matters.

Whether or not Trump is in bed with Putin, Trump's policies will create Russian, Chinese strategic, economic coups because of a lack of any sound strategic thinking or application of common sense! https://t.co/22reAFeRvx via @upi

MAKE NO MISTAKE: US national security is on life support. Trump's America First; DOGE; and tariffs are wrecking the nation. Look at the DOW! Help is needed now. Will anyone tell the president he is ruining the country? https://t.co/imlNGl5gkV

Docvedonya (Good Bye) NATO as the most successful alliance in history confronts its biggest crossroads and challenges from the threat of a Trump withdrawal. https://t.co/YX9y869kvs via @upi

Trump’s economic triple threat to America: DOGE, tax cuts and tariffs. Instead of helping Americans, these three will do great harm and on the current path could wreak havoc on the Trump presidency!  https://t.co/stxZHAZYnv

For all the controversy over trade with China, its exports to the US are only about 13% of the US total imports and the US exports to China are about 13% of Chinese imports. What is the problem causing a trade war?

The worst geostrategic blunder since Iraq. Trump's tariffs will generate retaliation, retribution against an isolated U.S. that China and Russia will exploit to the hilt and set off an economic calamity in America. https://t.co/zqXFIEqwZv via @upi

Trump has unleashed a geoeconomic catastrophe with these mindless tariffs. He needs more than black magic for his voodoo economics to work. And the winners are China and Russia who will exploit America's move to cut off international trade. https://t.co/IyFua6oe1O

Make no mistake. Trump's tariffs are a geostrategic catastrophe possibly worse than invading Iran over non-existent WMD. China and Russia will exploit this to the hilt. And if it continues, we will have self-isolated ourselves for no reason. This is dereliction of duty!

Trump's new tariffs are another step toward his day of reckoning. Too much is going wrong. Trump needs to right his ship of state before it sinks or there is a mutiny of unhappy sailors--called most Americans! And Musk is not helping https://t.co/MvImskDhz5 via @upi
