Stevenson’s army, December 31

Biden names Kath Hicks to be Deputy SecDef.  Some of you may have met her when she was a brownbag speaker in the Conduct class. She had a revealing article in Foreign Affairs last spring.
US officials warn of possible attack by Iran.
Politico says Trump people undermined science at HHS early on.
WaPo columnist notes differing views on compromise between Republicans and Democrats.
Happy new year!

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).
