Foreign Policy
Bruce Dixon, Black Agenda Report, lays it all out for us.
Submitted by Nastarana on Fri, 09/14/2018 - 7:22pmA list of each and every former CIA operative now running for Congress as a Democrat.
A table which lists each progressive candidate who survived his or her primary and where he or she stands on foreign policy. As Dixon points out, TWO FREAKING THIRDS have no position on foreign policy. None.
Worth a read: the Dems (and Ocasio!) just more of the same
Submitted by arendt on Wed, 07/11/2018 - 8:55amWhile this Counterpunch article, The Wisdom of Serpents, starts out asking questions about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's (AOC) biography, it winds up going through a lengthy laundry list of rotten things the Democratic Party has done since Obama was elected.
So, Trump is the scary madman?

Is a Trumpian foreign policy beginning to emerge?
Submitted by Alligator Ed on Sun, 04/16/2017 - 9:56pmEven the most ardent Trump-haters have to admit that DJT has his work cut out for him, in part thanks to the die-hard Trump-haters.

Submitted by Sunspots on Fri, 02/17/2017 - 10:07amwith someone they thought was the Ukrainian prime minister. He wasn't. They got recorded.
