WASHINGTON — Senator Elizabeth Warren is making strides to characterize her foreign policy vision as a progressive one after she announced she’d be forming an exploratory committee for a presidential run. But her record on the issues and her associations with war hawks contrasts sharply with her liberal rhetoric.
One executive of a defense firm said the perception in the industry is that Warren is not “adversarial” to them.

(ANTIWAR.COM) — After announcing the US withdrawal from Syria in the wake of a phone call with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, President Trump held a second call days later seeking assurances from Erdogan about what would happen to the Syrian Kurdish territory Turkey is about to invade.

Trump’s possible backtracking on withdrawal from Syria means he may have been once again outmaneuvered by the Deep State, says Virginia State Senator Dick Black. Following the outcry after President Donald Trump’s announcement that he was pulling U.S. troops from Syria,…Read more →
Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. But a video… this must be worth a thousand pictures. President Trump is almost completely vilified by the mainstream media for being everything from ugly, to an idiot, to amoral (a recent charge, by dying US Senator Harry Reid), to corrupt, to weak-willed, to explosive.

To see the predictions, one would be led to believe that doom is imminent for the career of the American President.
There are some problems with the list of predictions.
(ANTIWAR.COM) — President Trump’s decision to slow the withdrawal of US troops from Syria, after initial reports that he planned for a “rapid” withdrawal, are raising a lot of questions. These center heavily on how this apparently unilateral slowing of the pullout is reconciled with previous promises to closely coordinate with Turkey. The decision to withdraw, after all, […]
(ANTIWAR.COM) — In the weeks since the White House announced an upcoming withdrawal from Syria, media coverage and comments from lawmakers on the matter have been almost uniformly critical. In many cases, the coverage has been hysterically so, warning of an imminent second 9/11 over it. Yet this consistent narrative isn’t informing the public nearly so much as opinion-makers likely […]
(ZHE) — In a fitting tribute to his tenure as Secretary of Defense, James Mattis found himself at the butt-end of an oblique twitter attack launched by his soon-to-be-former boss on Monday. In a series of early morning tweets, Trump castigating the “failed generals” who opposed his decision to pull US troops from Syria and Afghanistan. But as Mattis […]
