As the United States began its bombing campaign in Iran, Trump suggested his strategy was based on the Jan. 3 raid on Caracas. Unfortunately, as @dan_grazier and I warned in @RStatecraft following Operation Absolute Resolve, “success can lead to overconfidence.” “In the wake of a spectacular military operation involving a lot of fancy aircraft and special forces, it is easy to start believing that warfare is nothing more than the proper application of technology. But what happened in Venezuela is the exception, not the rule.” responsiblestatecraft.org/trump-venezuel…

"In many countries, it has become an issue of the left. It's not a human rights issue anymore. It's kind of radioactive," comments @BGarciaNice on the second Trump Administration's anti-DEI efforts and its impact on gender-based violence. Read the full article on @NPR ⤵️ npr.org/2026/03/04/g-s…
