Stevenson’s army, January 25

NYT sees global links of far-right groups.
NYT also reports on China’s challenge to US in space.  But their story is so long, they added a “takeaways” summary.
But US still sees a role for B52s.

WSJ notes China surpassed US in FDI last year.
Politico says OMB was “broken” by Trump politics.
Some Democrats want to pass stimulus bill by filibuster-proof reconciliation process. Punchbowl notes that takes a long time, starting with a budget resolution, first in 3 years. CRS has a new backgrounder.
Jim Fallows assesses the Biden inaugural address.

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).
