A Trump-Putin-Xi Meeting on Nukes? Make Beijing Show Its Hand
The White House says nuclear weapons will lead the first Trump-Putin-Xi meeting next Thursday in Shenzhen.

Trump Called Our Allies Cowards. Then the King of England Came to Tea. Here’s the Full Picture.
With Trump calling NATO allies cowards, think like a chess player right now, not a fan. What has happened to the global alliance structure this spring is not just a story about diplomatic feelings or protocol.

Here is the piece of the Iran war coverage that keeps getting buried, and that every American needs to understand: Russian intelligence sharing is helping Iran target American forces.
