I have my students watch @micheleflournoy's 2019 Drell lecture & wrestle with @josef_joffe's hub and spokes concept for the current international order. Watching the response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, points both make have real salience. 1/
Despite all the hype about China's rise and multipolarity, the U.S. still sits at the central node of the global economy & when united with key partners in Europe & Asia, can "excommunicate" even a major country from that system. Moscow gambled on its indispensability ... 2/
to the world economy to shield itself, a gamble that so far has not paid off. China's willingness to shield Russia has also been far more hesitant that Russia expected (one of my "Vladimir's Delusions"). 3/
🧵 on Biden's gaslighting campaign during #SOTU2022.
"Last year COVID-19 kept us apart. This year we are finally together again."
COVID-19 didn't keep people apart. Democratic Party lockdowns and mandates did.

"We spent months building a coalition of other freedom-loving nations from Europe and the Americas to Asia and Africa to confront Putin. I spent countless hours unifying our European allies."
Joe Biden didn't unify anyone, Europe were leading the way on the response.

Happening now: @POTUS @JoeBiden delivers #SOTU2022

So I'm going to respond to the last #SOTU2022 I'll be watching from DC for a while, noting if immigration pops up in any way, shape, or form
It’s surprising how Trump’s Buy American, Hire American executive order served as one of the principal instruments to restrict immigration and showed where the Public Charge rule would go, something I explored in this 2018 @BPC_Bipartisan report bipartisanpolicy.org/report/restric…
This solid piece from @nicolenarea provides an overview of literature on how immigration can help address inflation and fill labor shortages vox.com/platform/amp/b…
Loving all the blue and yellow in the chamber for the #SOTU2022. Slava Ukraini! Glory to Ukraine.
And here is my president - thank God for him. Freedom WILL always triumph over tyranny. #SOTU
As the president makes clear - our alliances are more vital than ever. "We are ready and we are united." #SOTU2022

Notably, no one will talk to Lauren Boebert. Just walking by without acknowledgement
If the GOP doesn't fill those seats in this time of war in Europe, this will send a dangerous message to Putin.
U.S. President Biden will seek to unite Americans in solidarity with Ukraine in his State of the Union address reut.rs/3pwi9rX #SOTU
President Biden will also address rising inflation in his #SOTU remarks by calling for more cars and semiconductors to be made in the United States reut.rs/3ht8XA3
Public opinion polls have shown Biden out of favor with the majority of Americans for months leading up to tonight's State of the Union address reut.rs/3C4NC9y #SOTU
1/ Ahead of #SOTU2022 I want to reiterate what I’ve said for years: Energy independence has and will continue to be one of America's most critical vulnerabilities. A real and urgent national security issue.
2/ In less than a week, we’ve seen WTI/crude >$100/barrel, gas >$5/gallon in CA, and a natural gas crisis emerging in Europe. Post-Gulf War, we invested in medium-term solutions like domestic shale. This was a good stop-gap but not a long-term solution.
3/ Hands down the fastest and most realistic solution is solar. We need to deploy solar across the country and accelerate the mass transition to clean energy NOW.
Worldwide Equity: On his second day in office, Joe Biden shut down our Keystone XL pipeline at the time when we were finally not only energy independent, but one of the world’s leading producers of energy. Why?

Biden will claim he did so to reduce our carbon emissions to stop climate change. But three months later, Biden lifted the sanctions Donald Trump had placed on Russia’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline, giving the Russians the ability to transport their oil from their Arctic to Germany…
… and the rest of Europe, making Russia one of the world’s leading energy producers, enriching and emboldening them to help finance their nefarious actions, like an invasion of Ukraine …
President Biden took office 13 months ago vowing to halt the COVID-19 pandemic, improve the economy, soften U.S’s calcifying partisan division, restore faith in Washington’s leadership on the world stage & prove that democracies can function and deliver.

“No president in my memory has had so many crises dumped onto him in the first year as Biden has, and the speech has to be equal to that,” said Bob Shrum, a Democratic speechwriter who aided President Clinton with his State of the Union addresses.
