ICYMI, one of the messages @jonsweet.bsky.social & I assessed being sent yesterday by Trump in announcing the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz was squarely aimed at China.
Today, Beijing reacted.

ICYMI, Now’s not the time — as Col. @jonsweet.bsky.social, U.S. Army (r) & I argue at #INTREP360 — to politicize the wars in Ukraine & Iran.
Winning should is the only U.S. option — especially as it means the Axis of Evil loses. It’s time to get on the same page.

ICYMI, The fight over the Strait of Hormuz isn’t just about oil. It is also about — as Col. @jonsweet.bsky.social, U.S. Army (ret.) & I warn —about the survival of Iran’s nuclear weapons program.

Moscow now confirms it was an Oreshnik.

Sadly, as Col.

Most of us understood this from day one of Russia’s war. Team Trump, still must learn it. They are never going to sate Putin’s appetite for Ukraine & NATO.

It’s Christmastime in Ukraine, however, due to Putin, there’s no peace. As @jonsweet.bsky.social & I penned this, Russia was attacking Kyiv.
Yet, the spirit of the season endures in Ukraine.

@jonsweet.bsky.social & I took a deep dive in our new #INTREP360 Substack into Trump’s 2025 National Security Strategy.
It’s super heavy on the “E” in DIME-FIL while other instruments of national power are relegated to supporting roles.
That’s a bad idea.
