Stevenson’s army, June 26 afternoon edition

– You don’t have to wait for tomorrow’s WSJ. Already on line are two important stories:
-Administration plans multiple efforts to thwart Huawei.
– China warns US not to cross its red lines.
– A study says giving police leftover military equipment turns them into killers.
– Yes, Biden’s ahead by 14% and leads in the toss up states.  But I remember when our Dukakis -Bentsen ticket was up by 17% in August — and lost by 8%. As John Glenn used to say, “There are only two ways to run for office — unopposed, or scared.”

My SAIS colleague Charlie Stevenson distributes this almost daily news digest of foreign/defense/national security policy to “Stevenson’s army” via Googlegroups. I plan to republish here. To get Stevenson’s army by email, send a blank email (no subject or text in the body) to stevensons-army+subscribe@googlegroups.com. You’ll get an email confirming your join request. Click “Join This Group” and follow the instructions to join. Once you have joined, you can adjust your email delivery preferences (if you want every email or a digest of the emails).
