Daniel Larison rips apart the President’s foreign trip as a complete failure. Aside from cow-towing to the Saudis, who Larison says are the “one relationship” America should be fleeing, Trump’s trip did little to restore confidence in American leadership. H.R.

U.S. Shoots Down an ICBM for the First Time During Test

NATO Gets an Earful of Pure Trump
Writing at The American Conservative, Pat Buchanan praises President Donald Trump for scolding NATO’s other leaders on their countries’ failure to adequately support the alliance with increased defense spending. In Brussels, Trump praised NATO’s decision to back the U.S. war in Afghanistan after 9/11, but did not specifically recommit to Article 5, requiring all NATO […]
Trump’s Budget Proposes Overdue Reforms for a Wide Range of Programs
Chris Edwards, a friend of mine and the director of tax policy studies at Cato Institute, gives praise to the President’s budget proposals.

Trump Scolds NATO Leaders for Their Years of Underfunding
In a speech at NATO’s new headquarters, President Trump told the leaders of the allied countries, to their faces, that they needed to pay more for the alliance’s collective defense.
