Reupping this thread from 2 months ago. If we want to stop the killing in Ukraine, we need to flatline Putin’s economy with sanctions. Target all banks & all energy exports. Put secondary sanctions and/or tariffs on anyone who buys Russian oil. I’m cautiously optimistic…
1/3) Putin’s economy is faltering. The Central Bank’s interest rate is the highest in 20 years, at 21%. That’s because inflation is clearly worse than the official 10%. Bankruptcies are surging. The coal industry is in crisis. Putin’s National Wealth Fund is slowly depleting…
A pleasure to feature on the Vandenberg Coalition @VandenbergCo's podcast to discuss #China, #Russia, and #Iran in #LatinAmerica with the eminent @REvanEllis. A terrific conversation on how to better compete in our own shared neighborhood! Listen: open.spotify.com/episode/2K4xDi…
Increased sanctions are not a panacea. But they can put meaningful pressure on Putin to begin taking peace negotiations seriously, argues Corban Teague. ow.ly/zYQO30sOl7I
With Putin rejecting peace & escalating Russia's barbaric attacks against Ukrainian civilians, President Trump should drop the sanctions hammer to force Putin to the negotiating table- satisfying MAGA's desire for both peace AND strength. @TheNatlInterest #PeaceThroughSanctions

Ed Feulner shaped a generation of conservative thinkers at @Heritage and beyond. His leadership and commitment to principle were blessings to this nation. He will be dearly missed, but his legacy will live on in those who knew him, loved him, and learned from him.
The Heritage Foundation released the following statement today from Heritage President Dr. Kevin Roberts and Board of Trustees Chairman Barb Van Andel-Gaby, lauding the legacy and mourning the loss of Heritage Founder Edwin J. Feulner: It is with great sorrow that we announce…
"For years, the diplomats and pundits who inhabit Washington have painted the MAGA movement as 'isolationist.' And while they correctly identify MAGA’s antipathy for spending money on bloated international bureaucracies, they typically get its actual foreign policy preferences…
🇺🇸 NEW from @polarisnatsec: The media's claim that MAGA is isolationist is pure fiction. In the @realDailyWire, we prove MAGA Republicans not only reject Biden's global retreat—they’re leading America's foreign policy comeback. A must-read by @ykaliany. dailywire.com/news/maga-vote…
NEW: #PeaceThroughSanctions Putin has chosen war over peace. As Russia escalates attacks on Ukrainian civilians for minimal gains, China and India bankroll his aggression by purchasing Russian energy. As we argue in our new primer, increasing sanctions against Russian energy…

“Wars are fought with industrial capacity and the supply chains to fuel it. The CCP seeks to win its war by depriving the United States the means to wage a kinetic one.” Thank you for the opportunity to testify @HouseForeignGOP @RepYoungKim
Managing Director of Fannon Global Advisors, @frank_fannon: "The Chinese Communist Party has systematically weaponized its control over critical mineral supply chains as part of a broader strategy to displace the United States as the world's indispensable power."
This might be one of the most important articles written this decade. It is rare to read something that rises to the level of a classic, but this is one of those occasions. Well done @RLHeinrichs thefp.com/p/the-rights-1…
My first essay in the @TheFP, on the push to rewrite America’s identity to turn her focus inward and to turn her back to the world she helped build.
