My boss Harvey Schwartz is one of the best pure leaders I've ever worked for, and I’ve worked for people like Bob Gates and Leon Panetta. This is a wonderful interview full of immense leadership wisdom and deep humility. @OneCarlyle youtu.be/9reEXWDXk-4?si… via @YouTube
"Russia is the problem, they continue to demand simply the conquering of Ukraine, we cannot permit that to happen," this former NATO Supreme Allied Commander @stavridisj tells me as Ukrainian President Zelensky calls for peace talks with Russia.
On @CNN this morning discussing how Putin can be pushed to the negotiation table.
My successor as Supreme Allied Commander of @NATO just took over. He's off to a brilliant and fast start! defensenews.com/land/2025/07/1…
Attacking undersea cables is something I wrote about in "2034: A Novel of the Next World War" International commerce depends on these cables, which carry 95% of the internet. I remain deeply concerned about this tactic in hybrid warfare. Danger rising .theguardian.com/technology/202…

Cutting diplomats is penny wise but pound foolish. My old boss, SECDEF Bob Gates, used to point out that DOD has more people in military bands than the number of foreign service officers. They punch above their weight and deserve better than this. washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/…
Typical night at the Jacksonville airport. I fly 3 to 5 times a week. I literally cannot remember the last time I had a flight go on time. What is wrong with aviation in America?

On CNN International @cnni with @BiannaGolodrgya discussing resumed US military aid to Ukraine and possible next steps re Russia.
This video is a shot to the heart to any mariner. This demands expanded military action against the Houthi terrorists. If they were blowing up banks and killing tellers and guards in a major city, the world would rise up and hunt them down. gcaptain.com/houthi-video-s…
This is unlikely to get better without direct and forceful action against the capability of the terrorist Houthis. They are sinking ships and murdering mariners. gcaptain.com/three-dead-in-…
