NATIONAL SECURITY
BLAMING GLOBAL FREEDOM MOVEMENT ON US ‘DISINFORMATION? SERIOUSLY? – New Zealand protest, an echo of Canada’s, digs in and turns ugly. An occupation in the capital demonstrates the dangerous influence that American disinformation is having on otherwise stable democracies.
Are we ready for war in the infosphere? How can the U.S. and rule-of-law democracies counter increasingly sophisticated and weaponized disinformation? How should they wage “information warfare” during a period of putative peace? Can rule-of-law democracies compete successfully against those hyper empowered by technology?
CHINA THREAT

BECAUSE IT WAS A RIOT NOT INSURRECTION – Military is ‘no place for extremism,’ says Guard leader. But he’s powerless to boot Capitol rioters. Lt. Gen. Jon Jensen, director of the Army National Guard, said Tuesday that taking part in the insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021, was antithetical to the Army’s values and there’s no room for those soldiers who participated to continue their service.
INTERNATIONAL SECURITY
