Signs mounting that U.S. plans to bomb Venezuela, ostensibly with the goal of toppling the regime. Unfortunately the track record of this kind of campaign is uniformly poor. A short thread. 1/8

Must read thread by the best person to read on these issues!
Gov will definitely appeal and will prbly rely on the 1827 SCOTUS ruling in Martin v Mott, that discretion to determine whether an insurrection or failure to enforce federal law is happening rests w the prez alone and is not reviewable.

Looking forward to reading this one!
IR Book of the Week!

"Why Democracies Fight Dictators" by @madisonschramm.bsky.social. International politics is not a domain of cold calculation. It invokes emotions. Anger is especially prominent, and helps explain why democracies choose to fight dictatorships.

Thanks to Zachary Davis (cgsr.llnl.gov) for the opportunity to contribute to this important volume -- part historical record/part "cookbook" for Track 1.5/2.0 engagements with India and Pakistan. I learned a great deal from both organizers and participants.

Good, and among the most detailed, articles I've seen talking about wargaming done at the Naval War College by the various Halsey groups. A few other hardy perennials in there about the Navy and who they send to in-residence PME and what should be taught at NWC. cimsec.org/building-war...

Anyone out there who can lend a hand/contact?
Does anyone have contacts for DC based reporters who cover national security and/or defense policy (broadly defined) who might be interested in speaking to my students?

This paired with the Atlantic article below.
Can you guess what happens when a Walmart Supercenter enters a community?
...

...

◾EITC receipts in the community increase
◾ workers' incomes go down

as a direct result.

"Walmart Supercenters gradually accumulate and exercise monopsony power, with negative consequences for workers."

An excellent piece on how govt retreat from enforcing anti-trust laws created food deserts … wow two pro-Mittelstand pieces in one day, my German friends must all be chuckling temperately 😁
1. The conventional explanation for food deserts—that these places are too poor or too rural to generate enough spending on groceries, or too Black to overcome racist corporate redlining — fail to grapple with a key fact: food deserts didn’t used to exist. My new piece in The Atlantic.
The Mystery of Food Deserts
They didn’t materialize around the country for no reason. Something happened.

Thoughtful piece on thinking about the future maritime fight and not drawing the wrong lessons from recent events.
I couldn’t agree more. The instinct to derive lessons from the Black and Red seas is right, but we can’t be uncritical in how we export the experience of predominantly land-based belligerents into an expansive maritime AOR. warontherocks.com/2024/07/the-...
